Willis picks Seahawks over SKINS
 
Per the Redskin Insider. This doesn't break my heart.

[B]Willis Picks Seahawks Over Redskins[/B]

[FONT=Times New Roman] [I]Jason Reid checks in with this bit of news...[/I]
Guard/tackle Ray Willis, the Redskins' top free agent target to play right tackle, has re-signed with the Seattle Seahawks, a league source said.
Willis chose to return to Seattle instead of accepting the Redskins' free agent offer.
The Redskins are now expected to pursue Arizona guard/tackle Elton Brown.

Neither guy is too exciting. But money is starting to get tight. Hope we don't miss out on Elton John...I mean Brown.

What more info do you need? It is the "Insider"

I'm just shocked they had the story first.

Do we know why Brown is the 2nd choice?

You snooze, you lose. Maybe they think Heyer and Jansen can play RT, I don't see Brown as an improvement over either, the guy didn't even start.

How was Willis an improvement? Brown is actually rated a bit higher as a lineman than Willis, and played in a much better offensive line.

How is it "You snooze, you lose." We offered him a contract, he picked to go back to his team -- no huge surpirse. Skins probably made a fair offer that was his market value and he decided to stay where he's comfortable. Understandable.

I don't hear this being said about Brown.

How does FO go after AH without DE's. I mean VC could'nt have asked JT about this workout BS 6 weeks ago? Then JT would have jet and we could have had AH and Canty. This really frustrates me. Last year the excuse was. Were not getting enough pressure up the middle. So our DE's are to late to the QB. This year its going to be. We have no pursuit from the outside. QB's are rolling out with no containment and AH cant get to the QB. Sorry, I was typing as I was thinking. :)

His youth and versatility, I think. And the fact that he probably commands less on the open market

I was talking about the Scouts Inc rankings. They have Willis as a "good back up" ranking (51) and Brown (64) as an "average starter".

I wonder if Snyder is thinking of pushing all the chips to the center and going after Suggs? Yes I know he's (F) and want's to play 3-4 D But.... Suggs and AH...

If they had gotten a good offensive lineman in free agency (not Willis or Brown) I would say maybe. Otherwise, we don't have enough ammo to go after Suggs, and I hope they don't give up any future picks (is there going to be a draft in 2010?).
