Re: Griffin's impact on the off-season FA/draft

We need to build around RGIII We have anywhere from 35-40mil in cap space.

Resign Tim Hightower
Sign Vincent Jackson or Pierre Garcon or Braylon Edwards (if healthy)
Sign Eddie Royal, Maybe bring back Devin Thomas (lol) we need weapons, youth players that can run and get open, make the catch. In the draft I am looking at Ryan Broyles and Juron Criner.

Rebuild the line. We have to be able to effectively run and protect against the pass. Free agent number 1 should be either Carl Nicks or Ben Grubbs. I would also draft Philip Blake in the draft. I really think Willie Smith can step into the right tackle spot. Quality depth behind him

I also think we need that explosive runner with soft hands like LaMichael James although I think he will be gone in the second.

Roy Helu is a burner and lets remember he has the record for most catches in a game for a Redskin (14).

After Torain's unexplained dropoff I find myself nervous in regards to our running back stable. Like how long until Royster or Helu underacheives.

Speaking of which anyone know who the 3rd-6th round zone backs are? Remember the key words in scouting reports. Vision and anything with the word 'cut.'

Did Torain start with us as a rookie?

Denver, then out for a year, then us, I believe.

The point I was trying to make was these guys can change in the blink of an eye. If I told you last year that a healthy Torain would never break 3 yards per carry after the St. Louis game you would have told me I was crazy.

Helu and Royster are obviously promising, however their breakout games last year are no guarantee that they'll carry over to this year. Of course we'll probably draft another running back or two so I guess this is all a moot point if one of them falls off the map.
