Re: 2009 Free Agents
 

We should forget free agents and concentrate on the draft. Does New England trade draft choices for players? Only when the deal is slanted heavily in their favor, such as giving up a 4th round pick for the best receiver in the NFL. The Redskins never learn, and Miami took advantage of Vinny and Snyder.

Ok one thing is to hate the front office, which all of us have at one point, but can we please stop with the cliche comparison to other teams? Randy Moss' character had as many question marks when he was traded to New England as much as T.O. It really wasn't "slanted heavily" in N.E.'s favor and the Pats were taking a big risk. I remember Skins fans were going nuts about the idea of the Redskins going after Moss, and a lot of people complimented Gibbs and the team for not taking him.

New England signs free agents too.

Yes, over-the-hill free agents...but they seem to be able to get more out of them and extend their careers....or they just choose more wisely.

Roscoe Parrish? John Clayton thinks he would be a good fit [URL="http://insider.espn.go.com/espn/blog/index?name=clayton_john&action=login&appRedirect=http%3a%2f%2finsider.espn.go.com%2fespn%2fblog%2findex%3fname%3dclayton_john"]here[/URL]

I love that guy!! Great return man, smallish receiver who is quick as a cat. Would be a great replacement to Randle-El.

Same here. Clayton also mentioned this scenario on ESPN radio today. Clayton, Coleman and Green all agreed he would be a good fit for the Redskins and that he would be a great receiver out of the slot.

Re: 2009 Free Agents
 

I respectfully disagree. Parrish is a talent as a returner, that is for sure. He is not a talent as a receiver, however. 35 catches is his career high. This is why Buffalo is willing to let him go - as a receiver he's a bust.

If we could get him cheap, then ok. If we give up a 5th or higher pick for a guy who does nothing but return kicks, then no thanks.

Please, the Redskins have moved on. At this point they could care less about players from the U not on their roster. These days it's all about USC.

Re: 2009 Free Agents
 

All the returners in the world won't make any difference until the blocking ahead of him improves.

I think this will be a good deal for Jacksonville. They need receivers and Holt can help anyone new they bring in.
