More bad than good, no doubt, but we did get some value out of the FA haul that year, even though we wasted a lot of money.

You forgot about the great Adam Archuleta.

Aside from ARE's punt returns, he did pretty good at wide reciever, most people expected like 500 yds out of him, and he ended up getting 700 yards.

I like ARE but i'm not sure he's a #2 reciever. He really hasn't done alot w/ punt returns either, so you could call him overpaid.

Re: The Redskins' new approach to free agency

i still like the idea of trading for Roy Williams. Usually drafting a Wr in the first round doest merrit success. Trading a Second for Roy would be a much better option then drafting a Hardy with our first overall.

Why not just wait until next offseason when Williams is an unrestricted free agent?

I think it would be better if we just traded for him now, because we could just wait until the end of the year and see how he performed and based on the way he performed we either cut him, or resign him.

If we trade for him we would have first chance to sign him to a longer contract, If we waited till next year in free agency, we would have to outbid other teams for his services. Plus why wait to win when we could use him now.

So, are you agreeing or disagreeing with me?
