Why We Shouldn't Go Crazy in Free Agency

I know a lot of people are excited about the new CBA ... and cap room. Trust me, I am absolutely elated. However, I hope we don't go crazy in free agency.

We did very well last year with a core group of solid guys. Why wreck team chemistry by revamping the roster. Sure, we need a few guys here and there, but I doubt we need more than 1-3 new starters.

Just my two cents.

I agree. This isn't the same as when Danny simply thought he could buy a ring. A couple of pickups and i think we'll be fine.

I agree compeletley. I'd go for a low-key, but soild OLB to replace Arrington, with Clemons seeing increased playingtime. Maybe a pass-rushing defensive end and a possession reciver. Thats about all I'm worried about. I want to resign Clark, Royal and D. Evans for sure. Chemistry is huge, and this is a huge boost to our chances next year!

I completely agree. As mentioned earlier, a new punter and kicker could possibly help too.

Why isn't anyone scared sh1tless about QB?

Should we be? :confused:

Gas up Redskins One, go to Boston, pick up David Givens and Adam Vinatieri, swing down to NO, swoop up Darren Howard, come back to DC and put it in the hanger..

That sounds about right to me.

kampman
bruce
longwell

and if sam koch goes for the nfl, bring him here. otherwise zastudil is a FA, but he's pretty average.

That's a decent list of targets.

if bruce isnt expensive,i would definitly bring him in.is tupa going to come back?we do need a kicker,and someone to rush the passer.lets not get into the cap mess we were almost in again

I definitely would be happy with those additions. I'm not too particularly high on Kampman, but Bruce and Longwell would be huge additions. As for DE, I really wouldn't mind seeing Darren Howard added.

Right now, I'm really just happy that there is a CBA in place, however, it's difficult to think that now Washington has to start over restructuring contracts.

I know a lot of people are excited about the new CBA ... and cap room. Trust me, I am absolutely elated. However, I hope we don't go crazy in free agency (assuming we get the cap room to go crazy). A lot of people have been talking about going after big name free agents.

What makes you think the Redskins would even think of going crazy? What have they done over the past 2 years that would cause you concern? They now have the right formula, they know they need 2 or 3 key additions and I have every confidence that Gibbs & Co will sign the right guys. Just because alot of people are talking about signing big names, doesn't mean that that is what Gibbs & Co will do. I dont imagine that they check with the Media, or the message boards for what to do. :laughing2

It's been a tough couple of weeks. Try to sit back and enjoy the good news for awhile.
