Re: Free Agent WR's Rated

Nice list. A couple of flaws I see with your plan:

1. W/O a CBA we're not going to be able to sign anyone without cutting loose a few big names. Who would you propose to release? Don't include folks like Arrington or Ramsey, since it's almost a foregone conclusion they will not be part of the team in '06.

2. As far as signing Robinson and someone else, given his history of being a problem player, would he be #3 on the depth chart? If so, what benefit is it to sign him for a couple $MM other than punt returns?

3. Jurevicius would be good but I seriously don't see him going anywhere outside of Seattle. He was ready to retire at the end of '04 and I believe he lives in the NW which is why Seattle was able to coax him into 1 more year.

4. Randle El would certainly be the biggest impact player on the list, but he might be overkill in terms of filling our needs. Needless to say, after a good year, Super Bowl app, etc. he won't be a bargain basement FA. Don't see this happening because he will be able to command a high market value because of his versatility.

5. With all said, I think David Givens or Koren Robinson as a single signing would be the best move we could make. Givens gives us a solid complement to Moss as a #2 with Patton going to the #3. Robinson I don't know as much about regarding his receiving skills but he at least would give us a solid #3 with Patton in the #2 slot, plus he would add the dimension of being a punt returner.

he's been in the NFL 4 years and has under 700 yards... maybe he's just not a good player.

Re: Free Agent WR's Rated

From what I have heard from people that understand the cap process, it is not going to be that hard to get under the cap without having to cut a bunch of people. Restructuring some key players, who I think will be more than willing to help us get back to the SB. Robinson will come to Washington cheap. Givens will cost us, how much I don't know, but probably do able. I also think a CBA will be signed.
