Free Agency Begins in a Week, Whats the Plan?

Yeah Trent isn't moving to RT, just stop.

10 years+ running the site and you are even moderately shocked by the inanity of fans? That, in itself, is shocking.

I'd argue that Spikes absolutely fits the Redskins because of the emphasis that we place on stopping the run. Spikes is only 26 years old and paired with a coverage linebacker like Christian Jones could greatly improve our defense.

He doesn't fit the Redskins if we don't have a reliable cover guy who we can put in on 3rd down. Our strengths are fine and dandy, but you get burned for TDs because you have weak links.

Do you think we have someone who could come in on 3rd down and not be considered a weak link in coverage?

If healthy, does Keenan Robinson fit that description?

Not shocked at all.

Guys I have a brilliant idea. Let's sign a top 12ish LT and move our current top 6ish LT to the less important RT position.

In the immortal words of Matty... "don't quit your day job".

Who knows? The "if healthy" part never happens.

I think you read the part about Spikes and not the part about Jones. Jones is the best coverage linebacker in the draft.

A lot of fans look at players in real life like Madden. If a player can cover, tackle, and stop the run- sideline to sideline they won't be a free agent. Spike is an intimidator at the ILB position and wants to be a 3 down LB. If Kirk can coach him up and help him to be a better player at 26 years of age. We can solidify the linebacker core for at least 3-5 years.

The Skins haven't had an ILB that could cover in about 4 yrs, Fletcher has been a liability in coverage for that long. So, any instinctive ILB that is mobile and can stay on the field in passing situations is welcome.

Sign if possible:

TJ Ward
Verner
I would love Mack
Smith LB previously with Ravens
Also go after Davon Bess, Browns just released him

My two cents:
Free agents with guesstimated cap hits:
WR Brandon LaFell 5
T Anthony Collins 5
ILB D’Qwell Jackson 6
ILB Perry Riley 5
FS Mike Mitchell 6
FA signing total: $27 mil.

Obviously I am presuming that the axe will fall to create cap space.

Draft:
trade 2nd round pick down to middle of second round, picking up extra mid-third rounder – then:
C Marcus Martin 2/50
WR Donte Moncrief 3/66
G Dakota Dozier 3/80
NG Daniel McCullers 4/98
DE Brent Urban 5/130
TE Richard Rodgers 6/162
CB Andre Hal 7/194
