Arizona RB Tim Hightower traded to Redskins.

I think your observation is spot on. I'm in the business of being right, not parroting the masses.

and contrarian.... ;)

The redskins have had an amazing offseasonUh, okay, sure!

I think you can list the additions we've made this offseason who will still be Redskins in 2014 on one hand, but great!

and contrarian.... ;)It's part of my gig, for sure.

Atv will make the team but his health issues r a big deal

I concur. Best I've felt about the Skins in a looooooooooooooooong while regardless if I think we'll be good or not.

I think we only have 2 players on the the roster 10+ plus experience. Last year we had 7, so we are getting younger. That's a good thing.

University of Richmond baby!....Hightower has really been a success story, cant believe Arizona is getting rid of this guy...he does it all. Power back, pass block and catches the ball outta the backfield.

Wait, you're comparing Hightower'is impact/production to Vonnie's? I don't know about that one, bruh. This guy ain't Adrian Peterson, but he should step right in and play a very significant role and pick up where Clinton Portis did in pass pro.

Gonna have to disagree with you on that one. But we'll see when he hits the field.Comparing depth at RB to depth at DE. Seemed like, before this trade, we had both. Now it seems like we have just one.

Of course, this trade likely signaled that Holliday wasn't going to make the team anyway, so there's that. Hightower can now replace Torain as the fan's crush who probably isn't helping the team that much.

If he lays out a couple of NFC East linebackers in pass pro, it will be a trade well spent. For entertainment value at least. I'd rather have kept the 6th rounder or 7th rounder or whatever it ends up being.

Like the move. Very underrated RB. Young, hard runner, who can pass block, catch, and has speed to break a long one. I've always felt he can be a good starting caliber RB, and now he has that chance; Giving up Holliday, who was expendable, and a 5th.

Great Move

Where did you see we gave up a 5th? All I can find is an undisclosed pick. If we gave up a 5th and Holiday, that's too much. Ochocinco went for a 5th, and Santonio Holmes went for a 5th last year. I don't think Hightower's worth a 5th.

RT @john_keim talked 2 @daverazzano re: hightower (was w/cards when they drafted him): "I don't think he's as good as helu. he's a backup."
