This is definately one of the better articles by JLC and Reid. I actually found this part amusing but couldn't help but wonder if it was careful word placement by JLC.
Initial Personnel Ratings Completed - Redskins Insider
Quote:
There was a consensus among those in attendance that the team needs to upgrade at both guard spots and right tackle, though most sources doubted there will any kind of substantial free-agent budget to do that, and figure most of the present cast will be back.
Cerrato was looking for reasons for the team's 2-6 finish, which some coaches at first thought was a joke given personnel issues and the continuing age and injury problems of the line.

Other things of note:
- Chad Rhinehart isn't even considered close to be ready
- Heyer is considered a tweener and will continue to be used for depth purposes
- Jansen is done and will be kept for nothing more then salary cap restrictions
- Bugel went after practically everyone on the O-Line
- JC will not get an extension
- Cornelius Griffin will not be cut.
- Marcus Washington on the other hand is a goner.
- Jason Taylor might get cut, though right now the team is looking into using him as an OLB. Apparently people close to JT say he will not accept a reduced rate opting rather to become a free agent
Glad though that at least the people talking to Vinny see the line as a major issue.
