How bout them skins?

Same old shit. Get a big name rather than 3 decent names. I thought we had it figured out last year when we built A TEAM from the draft rather than signing once-were stars from free agency?

RG3 still wont have anyone to block for him.
RG3 still wont have anyone to throw to.

and without a first round pick for the next 2 years, what are they going to do, sign more overpriced freeagents? thats worked out really well so far.


and I seem to be alone but I think the price was WAY too high just to move up 4 spots in the draft. Everything I had read/heard said next years first and a third would be the right price, which seems about right to me too. Of course the redskins grossly overpaid.

I agree that the price was too high, but when two teams are bidding against each other its going to drive the price up...and shanahan was desperate because if he doesn't make the playoffs this year it'll probably mean the axe.

I do think that this move makes us much more attractive for free agents, especially wide receivers, so from that perspective its worth more just RG3. If they can sign a top free agent WR and another good (not great) lineman (and for the love of god a kicker who isn't a huge choke artist) they could win 10 games. Then again they could win 4 and I wouldn't be shocked...
