Besides, even a broken clock is right twice a day. So, one of these seasons we're bound to be right.

Well said, let us dream and imagine.

Absolutely, he's got great size and speed. Catches in traffic and is a stud in the slot.

Hopefully he's a more durable Chris Thompson basically

I did wonder if we could have gotten him a little later than 3rd round because of Gibson's limited experiences, but I guess he showed enough to convince Redskins (and you).

This may have already been mentioned, but the new CBA is clutch for Saadiq Charles's prospects. Dude likes weed, and the new CBA removes weed from the banned substances list. That will no longer count towards drug violation suspensions.

I think his infractions at LSU largely centered around weed, thus Rivera and Kyle's comfort with drafting him.

So we're sort of replacing our pot-smoking future HoF'er LT with a rookie pot-smoking LT.

And I know I know, Charles is not literally replacing Trent. Just making a bad joke.

I hope you're right, because I'm a firm believer the massive majority of athletes in any contact sport prefer weed to pills.

I'm not sure about the "playoffs" scenario, but I do think this team will be better than many think.

The team last season, IMO, had tanked it early. I recall speaking with a Dolphins fan after we beat 'em and he was saying (paraphrased), "We ('Fins fans, fans of the NFL and people around the league) all know the Dolphins are tanking.... What's the Redskins' problem?"

I replied confidently by saying, "Just because it's not being mentioned by anyone doesn't mean it's not happening. But the Redskins, IMO, are also tanking. I've watched enough games to know better and my eyes rarely ever tell lies."

In the end, the Dolphins were trying to win, but I truly believe we were tanking it last season. If not early in the season; it sure as hell looked like it was happening near the midway point of last season.

I'd sure as heck would love to be in the playoffs, but I'm gonna hold off on such talk. But I'm in agreement with you in that this team will be better than last season's team. I'm not talking about one, two or even three games better. I'm referring to several games better. I'll go with 7 or 8 wins for now.

I want to watch a Charles vs. Williams bong rip challenge!!

What I like most about this roster right now is there are only five players (Kerrigan, Sundberg, A. Smith, A. Peterson & Davis Sr) who are over 30, and there are 49 players who are 25 and younger.

We talking about Vernon Davis? His contract is up, he's gone.

I think Anthony Davis, new linebacker came over from the Panthers.

Thomas Davis, Sr.

I forgot about him, thanks for clarifying.
