Show me a guy who'd rather play for the perennially losing Redskins than the perennially winning Broncos and I'll show you the type of player that Lions coach Rod Marinelli is trying to weed out of his locker room. At the very least, Detroit got a potential starter at offensive tackle ( George Foster) and running back ( Tatum Bell) in the Bly trade, which gives them lots of options at No. 2 in the draft.
Minnesota cut its losses with the clueless Fred Smoot.

I couldnt agree more. Bly has like 10 years in the league and is looking for the Redskins to give him a comfortable retirement.
The Smoot signing was terrible. His best days are behind him and like someone else said he had Champ playing with him and covering the opposition's best WR. Smoot went to MN as THE MAN and ended up losing his job. Smoot was NFL trash blowing down the street and for some reason the Skins could not resist picking it up.
