Report: Redskins Have Traded for Jammal Brown

I'd say without first seeing the squad actually play that is team has a 85% chance of being anywhere between 6-10 and 8-8. Anything beyond that is unlikely. So, yeah, we could make the playoffs....if the NFC totally sucks and an 8-8 team makes it in.

However, making predictions without seeing preseason live action is a bit crazy. This is all speculation. The only way I can see us doing better than 8-8, is if McNabb does great and we add a legit WR or if DT starts hitting on all cylinders in preseason....all that combined with no reduction in productivity in Defense...I too have concerns about a 3-4 dline, LB arrangement as half the starting LB's will essentially be rookies in the position and the Dline is a bit questionable unless Haynesworth remains.

I agree with skinsnut. Making predictions now is like a person who can see trying to read braille. You can see what's in front of you but you still can't make out what the heck it is. It's a glass half full/half empty situation. You can argue we don't have this or that. And we don't. We have upgraded this and that. And we have. rbanerjee23 was right when he said whatever way you look at it, we are definitely rebuilding. Only thing I am glad about is that even if we don't have a great season, atleast Danny boy is out of the way, for now, and the FO seems to know what the heck it's doing for once.
