The issue is, that of the two strategies, we know which one clearly doesn't work -- but this organization simply refuses to see it, but they do the same thing year after year, expecting a different result.
There has to be a monumental shift in the personnel decision making with this team. One can only hope that a business man as savvy as Dan Snyder is will someday recognize it, and he'll turn things over to the professionals. And unfortunately, that doesn't include Joe Gibbs.

Wow, what a statement. The truth is the first two years of this regime brought mostly great player acquisitions, including some good draft choices such as Cooley and Taylor. Charley Casserly spent the 90's attempting to build through the draft and it was the worst era in recent Redskins history.
My point was and is that you don't have to follow the herd. You can build a very effective team through FA if you do it right. It's no different than drafting, you have to pick the right guys. They missed this year, just like many teams will discover they missed at their drafting. Mark my words, Gibbs will get this thing right before he leaves!
