Best Offseason

[TheMalcolmConnection]

Hindsight aside then, would you have said the 2000 Redskins had the best offseason?

our off season was decent. but without addressing our defensive line issues, how can you say the best off season in the league? and i wouldn't give moss too much credit just yet. he basically has taken the last 2 seasons off. and he isn't getting any younger. i just thank god he wasn't brought here

[dmek25]

hey malcolm. how is the old married one doing?

I would say, we had a VERY GOOD off-season! No major splash, for a change. Just adressed EXACTLY the areas of most concern.

I also, think we are going into 07 in really GOOD shape!

Ditto. Last year, our biggest problem was the secondary. Now we have the deepest secondary (with quality backups out the wazoo). Also, our draft went very well...Landry will make an impact and he was the best defensive player available when we picked, plus we picked up a couple of good LBs who could've been drafted much higher.

Let's also not forget about Campbell's work and dedication to be better in the offseason...I bet he's going to have a big year.

I liked what the Skins did this offseason but was it the best in the entire league? I don't think so, but then again the ultimate judgement can only be made after this season is over and done and the results speak for themselves.

On paper I like what the Patriots did.

I think the offseason was a productive one around Redskin Park. Certainly they addressed the needs in the defensive backfield and we have good depth at the RB position which we all know is critical in a Gibbs team.

We shall find out in about 75-80 days my friends!

Hail!

Established depth at every position on the team. Who has 5 CB's as good as the skins? Who has the safety depth we have? Who has the RB depth we have? Who has the LB depth we have? Who has the oline depth we have? Dare I say it, we actually have some QB depth. The only place I see any depth issues is DE and DT, but we still have 3 quality DE's and we have only have two quality DT's. We have some other DT's Salavea and Montgomery that could provide quality depth and a few DE's that may provide some in Demetric Evans and this guy Hickman.

I honestly do not see a hole on this team at all. Our starting 22, is as good as anyones in the entire NFL.

We have the coaches and their systems in place. This is going to be our year. We are going to wear teams down with Portis & Betts, beat them over the top with Moss and in the middle with Cooley.

We are going to stuff the run with Fletcher, stop the pass with a healthy Springs, Rogers, and Taylor and showdow any playmaker with Landry. As well as blitz from every direction imagible.

Plus everyone is sleeping on us. Am I the only one who sees this? Why don't we start looking at the good of this team instead of nitpicking?

So how are we going to rush the passer? We were last in sacks last year. This is going to be a problem. GW is going to try and live by the blitz. It may work some weeks but at some point you have to get pressure with your lineman. The offense may have to carry us.

I firmly beleive that Cleveland had the best offseason...they set themselves up for a great future. Sure they may only be 7-9 or 8-8 at best this year, but they will be very tough to beat in a few years.

We didn't have the best offseason, but we had a real good one. We were able to address needs without overpaying anyone. We have pretty much the same team as last year. We've gained London Fletcher who is already familiar with the system and can be a great leader. We have Laron Landry, Fred Smoot, David Macklin and J. Butler in the defensive backfield.

When the Skins make a big offensive splash, its a problem, and when they don't its a problem. They're never going to be able to please everybody, but to me what was done this offseason is what best improves team chemistry thereby improving the team

[skinsfan69]

Hands down NE had the best offseason.
