This is the latest (Sat. 2:15 a.m.) from ESPN's John Clayton.

The Redskins came out swinging. They made contact after midnight Friday with 49ers defensive end Andre Carter, Rams safety Adam Archuleta, Chiefs quarterback Todd Collins and Steelers receiver Antwaan Randle El and have them flying in as early as Saturday.

The Redskins are also working on a possible trade for restricted free agent Brandon Lloyd of the 49ers. Lloyd was given the first round tender, but the Redskins have initiated trade talks that could give the 49ers two mid-round draft picks. Lloyd agreed Friday night to make a visit to the Redskins on Sunday. There is a good chance Lloyd will come to an agreement with Redskins for big money before the end of the weekend. The plan for the Redskins is to sign Antwaan Randle El and Lloyd.

This plan, if true, sounds very exciting. But, is it overkill to have Moss, Randle El, Lloyd, Patten and Thrash? I guess if this is Gibbs' plan, I'll just say that he knows what he is doing. It seems like a little much, but he's got three rings whereas the only rings I have are in my toilet bowl.
