If I remember right, in addition to the new TV contract, the Redskins themselves have a lot of corporate sponsorships that were set to expire at the end of this season. With Gibbs back in the fold FedEx now more than ever is the place to be in the DC area. So the Redskins can definitely drive up the fees for new sponsorships, whether with the current companies or new ones. That money can then be used for signing bonuses.
But regardless, I agree with Hogskins. I don't know what the benefit is of worrying about two years from now. Let's say the Skins win the Super Bowl this season, would we all be sitting around moping that "yeah we spent the money and got the title but what will it matter in two years" or if we spent conservatively and finished 8-8 would we all be sitting around saying "well at least we won't be in cap hell in two years. To paraphrase Herman Edwards "You spend to win the game"
