DS always was and always will be a huge contributor to the Skins record. The fact that he was the driving force behind the RG3 trade will impact the Skins record (for better or worse) for years to come. The DJax deal has DS written all over it, we will see how that impacts this season.

I agree this is a huge year for Hasslet.

Who's to say, though, that picking Russell Wilson over RGIII would have put the 'skins in a better spot today? Sure, you still keep those other two first round draft picks, but you still have the $36 million dollar cap penalty - which contributed a lot to stunting the growth of this team. I do agree that this is a make or break year for RGIII, but he's given every chance to succeed this year. If he doesn't, we'll know he's a bust. I seriously doubt I see a repeat of last year, but we'll see.

The DJax pick up was a great pick up all around. It doesn't hurt this team that much. If you're going to make a big splash, at least sign a contract that works for both parties - and that happened. I know I tend to see everything in a positive way when it comes to the Redskins, but every move made in this offseason seems to be for the better. Yes, there's a question mark over Jay Gruden, but it's not like he has no head coaching experience in the pros at all.
