Personally, I would rather not go after any of the FA WRs
Is there any interest in free agent o-lineman the FO is going to chase this year?

If Niles Paul can even be a no. 3 within a year, I think we're going to be okay at WR. We don't have an in house no. 2 to replace an incresingly ineffective Moss, but we do have the luxury of time. That's not a spot we'll have to address in 2012, if Hankerson can continue this production against better defenses.

Re: Build the Redskins for 2012

I wouldn't bring in D.Jax. He's got headcase written all over him, and I've had enough of headcase free agents bringing their talents to DC. The talent is not worth the headache, and I think that applies in his case. I wouldn't bring in Colston either, as aforementioned, those health problems scare me away. Ben Grubbs is someone I'd agree with, but who does he replace, Chester or Lich? I'd replace Chester personally, just stick him at a backup role, but for the money we're paying him I'd want him to take a pay cut, which idk if he'd go for.

Grubbs is the only name I've heard, but I'm sure there are more.

As far as FAs, I'd be tempted to go hard after Rice or Forte

No more signing guys like Jackson and Bowe. Suck it up and deal with sucking until we find our own.

Lol it's an opinion more Redskins fans should have. We're going to suck regardless.

I doubt we will suck as much as people think next yr. If we draft a Qb and horde lineman, things should click pretty quick for us. I could see us 8-8 or 9-7 next year.

We have a difficult schedule next year, but it's doable.

It all comes down to if we pick the right QB or not.

Tannehill couldnt be any worse next year than Beck or Grossman. Plus he is young, has upside, and can really move around in the pocket and run if needed. Plus if we traded back we would pick up an extra pick to get another player to help out.

I think Tannehill is worth the risk if we can get him in the back half of the 1st round if RGIII is not available or goes back to school.

At this point I'm not terribly worried about that. We could be looking at the second pick of the draft. Aside from luck, we could get whoever we want.

After Luck it should be Barkley, this kid will be a great QB in the pro's.

Initially I didn't like him (what with the recent crop of terrible USC qbs) but I'm warming up to him.

Re: Build the Redskins for 2012

In the top half of the draft, the team should target a QB, OT, and a S/CB. I just don't think this team is far away from turning it around. Right now, Shanahan is trying to shuffle guys around to see who's capable of stepping up but, it's also causing a disruption with team chemistry.

Ok, RB is the only position that A) we don't Really need B) is something we can get in the draft C) is what shanahan is known for getting in late rounds/UDFA

So no, even though they are great players. Forte I feel like if he got paid he'd be lazy anyway.

And can you please Repeat what you said a few weeks back about how you heard that we are NOT interested in Matt Barkley, the QB from USC. Nor should we be since A) he's flat footed B) he's still young and needs another season to mature C) He's not that accurate D) he's playing with talent that makes him look better than he is E) he's a USC QB; they aren't your top QB's in the NFL, they're just solid (Sanchez-ok, Palmer-decent, Leinart-bust, Cassel-decent [didn't even play at USC])
