Adding 10 Redskins to the all time team (Now 80 Greatest)

Lavar Arrington invalidates the rest of list. He was meaningless to us making good plays for us when we stunk. And he was a liability to the Skins when we became good under Gibbs 2.0 in 2005, and Lavar couldn't stand being a team player.

It's a disgrace that Lavar was named one of the 80 greatest Redskins. He simply wasn't, strictly because of his selfishness and stupidity.

Sure you can vote Lavar in on talent. Same way you can vote Albert Haynesworth in as one of the 80 greatest Redskins. Fat Albert deserves to be on that list about as much as Lavar Arrogant does, IMO.

I must admit that i bashed Lavar after he signed with the Giants and talked shit about the Redskins and Dan Snyder. Since he started posting his columns on the WP you can see he has matured, mended the fences and become likeable again.

Instead of:
LaVar Arrington
Jon Jansen

Would've like to see:
Darryl Grant
Ron Saul

but it's splitting hairs, good list overall.

Arrington did have some pretty good years. He made the pro bowl during a three year stretch every season. I just look at the way he played on the field. I was surprised to see Jon Jansen make it. He was good and went to some pro bowls for us but I don't see where he was among the greatest Redskins. I would have liked to see Jean Fugett or Curtis Jordan make the list.
