So it's possible, if not probable, that he could be headed elsewhere and we could get a solid draft pick in return. But with RFA tenders, it has nothing to do with any prearranged trades really. It's not like the Redskins are actively shopping either of these guys around. They just know that it's potentially a win-win for them to give both 2nd round tenders.

if we tender both of them for 2nd rounders, and no one else tries to sign them, what are we on the hook for, financially?
We just extended Griff. If we're on the hook in 2009 for Monty and Golston, AND we sign Haynesworth, that strikes me as overkill. I dont know why teams would want Golston over Monty, but maybe i misjudged his potential. Golton did a fine job last year, but i dont think he did anything to prove hes worth a 2nd rounder.

well i honestly wouldnt want to let him go for less. id rather have golston than take a gamble on what vinny would do with a 3rd or 4th round pick.
