First off, NOBODY should be surprised that we lost Smoot. We all saw the writing on the wall.

That said, Joe Redskin for President. He's right, this team needs smart management. No more overpaying for players. No more winning the offseason. No more installing new offenses. No more integrating new players. No more new defensive coordinators. No more short-sighted planning.

The Skins are being smart with the situation they're in. Not enough people here on the Warpath are focusing on years 2006 and beyond, in my opinion. Everyone is concerned what happens to our cap in 2005, but nobody's talking about how much better our 2006 cap looks now. I'm very excited, because when I look at it now it's telling me that we can actually keep our players and not have to blow up the team like the Titans did.

Bad things about this year:
- Lost Smoot
- Lost Pierce
- Lost Coles

Good things about this year:
- The same D coordinator as last year (hasn't happened in a long ass time).
- Ramsey starting for a full season, instead of for only 7 games.
- A team atmosphere, getting rid of the players who don't want to be here.
- An O-line with stability, in the same scheme as last year (they'll jell faster this year).
- More draft picks than last year.
- Ramsey growing in the offense.
- Healthy Jansen.
- Healthy Lavar.
- Casey Rabach
- David Patten
- Santana Moss
- A pledge by Gibbs to go deep and use the speed he just acquired at WR.

Not being able to keep our free agents was frustrating. But I think when all we ever talk about is offseason moves, we forget the situation the team takes into next season. All those positives are the reasons we're going to be better than we were last year.

Playoffs baby, playoffs.
