Nice O-line.
Man, I knew you were a Redskins pessimist but this is ridiculous. I do like that you replaced Rabach and Sundberg at least.

I don't think you can gut a team that won ten games in two seasons. I think the phrase you're looking for is getting rid of some bad contracts without adding new bad contracts. Which is the obvious focus in 2011. Assuming the Redskins are actually on the right track.
I wouldn't be shocked to see the Redskins try Ryan Torain at Fullback this year. It's something that Shanahan did with Mike Anderson, a player who he really liked, rather than release him. In this scenario, I have them not getting rid of Mike Sellers because he's still really valuable on special teams. But that's really all Sellers does these days so Torain --> Sellers is pretty defensible.
Anyway, that OL I have up there isn't exactly reaching for the stars in 2011, but who would you acquire that would improve on that situation, and what would you give up to get them?
Remember, there is a cost -- potentially a significant one -- in trying to be less bad in 2011.
