Free Agency Begins in a Week, Whats the Plan?

F Champ.

I think at least 7 new starters. Maybe 8 depending on what the hell we do with the Oline and if we promote from within (Gettis, City of, McRib). Also think we could add a second TE who would be like a new starter the way Gruden uses 2 TE sets.

I'll be a little surprised if we spend money on an interior lineman. Probably promote from within/address in the draft. Maybe something like move Lichtenstieger to C, plug in LeRib at one guard and competition between Gettis and a draft pick for the other starting spot.

I think we should sign Schwartz at right guard then let LeRib and Gettis compete for LG. move lichtenstieger to C.

champ and danny don't like each other, not happening.

Not opposed to that, I think there are more pressing needs at WR and RT that our dollars are better allocated towards however. G can be a draft pick in the 2nd or 3rd round and be much cheaper than spending big $ on one in FA.

Schwartz is interning in DC for ESPN980 so a lot of people naturally believe he will be joining the Redskins. I wouldn't make that connection necessarily

A lot more DE.

Thanks SS! It's about time. Although Cofield has been fairly successful at NT, I've always thought that he would be better at end.

Is there any good reason to think LeRebeus, or Gettis is ready to start ? neither one has ever started a game (per NFL.com)

With the Skins looking for a NT/DT type, three FA's come to mind:

Linval Joseph, 6-4 323
Red Bryant, 6-4 323
Terrance Cody, 6-4 340

Anyone heard any rumors or have any thoughts on any of these three or other possible Redskins targets?

It looks like the Skins are planning to beef up the D-Line by moving Coefield and Baker to DE and bringing in a big NT. I'd like to see them play a little 4-3, too, with Orakpo and Kerrigan at the DE positions.
