Not sure how one could spin the current state of the lines and the Redskins disinclination to address them in the draft for the last decade as anything but negative, brother. I could pin a smiley face on the numbers, maybe, but Redskins fans are too wise to get over on that easy.

As to it being "typical" of what you see in 1-4 runs, or "onesided and blinkered," well ... I'm writing about one specific topic I see as seriously deficient. I've written about lots of other things, too--many of them positive (it's actually kind of refreshing to be accused of being a hater for change). This time I happen to be writing about this negative one. I hope you're not suggesting that every time someone drills down to assess what they view as a specific problem area with hard facts and numbers, they have to be sure to balance it out by finding something good to throw in there for "balance?"

That would suck for me, because I'm already accused on a regular basis of being too wordy.

What your post does do for me at is this is possibly the most compelling case to have a GM to be able to oversea the ship in times of turmoil .
We have one. He just happens to be one long on record as not believing in drafting linemen high in the draft.
