I agree. I expect Samuels to recapture his Pro Bowl form working with Joe Bugel in Joe Gibbs' offensive system. Plus, I'm not convinced Ogunleye would be nearly as productive in Washington as he was in Miami, playing opposite Jason Taylor. The guy is talented, for sure, and is better than anything the Redskins have right now, but giving up Samuels to acquire him would be a big mistake. Also, the Dolphins would have to figure out a way to squeeze Samuels into an already very tight cap space, and Samuels has already indicated he doesn't want to renegotiate this year. Additionally, I'm sure Samuels wants the opportunity to improve himself under Bugel's guidance, and conversely, Bugel wants the opportunity to coach Samuels into the best player he can be.
