Re: Make a Decision on London Fletcher's Future

If the Redskins can make Donovan McNabb a deal mid season in 2010, they can make London Fletcher a deal before free agency begins after the Super Bowl.

I'm very optimistic that Allen and Fletcher's agent will get a deal done very fast. The Redskins without London Fletcher is like the Baltimore Ravens without Ray Lewis. Not going to happen!!!!
Since you invoke the name of Ray Lewis in your post, how can you also assert that London Fletcher is "arguably the best MLB-ILB in the NFL" ? Fletcher is the best defensive player on the Redskins; he is not the best MLB/ILB in the NFL so long as these guys are on NFL rosters:
Ray Lewis
Brian Urlacher
Patrick Willis
That list came off the top of my head; there could well be two or three others in the NFL who belong there but it is not worth the effort to go team-by-team through the league.
