Shameless self-promotion. It is what it is.

HAHA, well said Matt!

We need to lockup our own guys like Kerrigan and Williams. PFT had a segment on this that describes our club pretty damn well, we over spend for other club's guys and let our own walk out the door.

I would restructure Garcon or leave him be.... Here is what is going to happen, as soon as he leaves we will all be screaming that we don't have a legit #2 WR.

Hopefully Ryan Grant develops, he is not there yet, by a long shot.

I don't have a lot of faith in Andre Roberts, to many mental errors and drops last year.

Chances are that he really doesn't know how to coach someone without blazing speed. It's journeymen that learned a position the hard way that tend to make better coaches than the freaks of nature for whom all this stuff came easy...

And there is no indication todate that DG would want to be a coach or has the personality to be a coach.

Really interesting to see Demarco Murry getting sold short. 16 ranking? I think people are really really overvaluing that Dallas Oline. I mean, sure they are good, but damn you have to take a beating to run the ball that much and still get that productive. IMO Murry was MVP on that offense and I think he can be very valuable outside of Dallas.

They put Torrey Smith ahead of Murray? laughable

murray gets hurt a lot. not a good trait for an expensive RB to have.

1. lots of DE. thats not good for rak but good for us.

2. that center Hudson is interesting. rumor is gruden wants bigger O line but Hudson seems to have all the right check marks - young, on the upside, position of need .... will he sign for the right price though?

with hudson at center, lich goes back to guard for 1 more yr (then we cut him), lets lauvau and long battle for other guard spot. if hudson gets injured, lich moves back to center ....

3. murray would be great on the bills or a team needing someone to carry their offense. maybe seattle to replace lynch?

Re: Who should we go for in Free Agency?

The new GM is a draft guy. There won't be much in FA this year. Garcon should be not be brought back his contract is prohibitive, and it shouldn't be re-structured due to the fact that he shouldn't be in their long term plans. Play the rookies and the people that were drafted and that will be drafted.
Play the rookies to find out who is a NFL player and who's not. Build through the draft means you play very young players. The skins were 3-13 and 4-12, REBUILD FROM SCRATCH.

Garcon not in long term plans? What gives you that notion? Getting rid of garcon, in my opinion is just stupid, unless he wants major money.

IMO some people are just use to us letting go of players instead of holding on to the few good ones we have.

What if he is a being a cancerous influence in the locker room because he doesn't like the QB?

Garcon is a guy that never takes plays off and gives maximum effort no matter the score.

If saying what the rest of the roster and every football person who watches film is thinking then I guess he is guilty.

Are your referring to that QB that called out his teammates in a post game press conference to the national media no less?
At least Garcon did not do it standing on a stage with the lights and cameras rolling like that certain QB did.

More of a Cancerous influence: RGIII>Garcon

If Garcon or one of our top 3 Wr's get released it will be because of the massive Salary cap space our top3 WR's are taking up on a roster that has huge fundamental roster/talent issues at more critical positions (OL & DB).
Not because Garcon a bad apple, he is not.

Re: Who should we go for in Free Agency?

No bug names in FA, no expected starters (unless they hit on a flyer), they should go for depth in FA only. Build through the draft!

Draft road graders on the OL. Get big body NT and draft studs to go around him (if you stay in a 3-4), get long, smooth transitioning (good hip turns) DBs.

"BUILD IT AND WINS WILL COME"

I know that sites like these aren't meant for patient fans, but its going to take time to build a winner. The Skins have to realize that they can't buy a winning team. It has to be built from the ground up (build the lines correctly, and the rest will follow).

There are 9 million reasons to let Garcon go. Face facts this is a RE-BUILD, let him go and have that money to pay short term defensive help where there are talent gaps. if Garcon is here or not - this is a 8 win team at best. They are at least 2 yrs. away from contending, in any configuration you want to suggest. Blow it up and start fresh.
