but do you pay a 30 year old WR top free agent money at that position? I say hell no. Knowing what we know about Johnson, he won't be open to anything less than top dollar.

Redskins typically give out 3-year contracts. They are technically like 5, 6, or 7-year deals, but they are designed to be restructured or cut after 3 years. So, you are only signing him to what amounts to a 3-year deal. I have no doubt that CJ can produce like a top WR the next three years. So, whether he's 25 or 30 really isn't a big deal to me.
