Polumbus is a solid back up but no way is he a 16 game starter. I've just seen him on roller skates too many damn times.

Given I believe mostly the opposite of what JLC says, we must be getting Aqib Talib

There has been lots of talk around the league about Redskins chasing Aqib Talib, but I don't expect them to heavily pursue

They are developing their own, maybe Compton has added 20 lbs of muscle

Expecting him to be a Sproles - like playmaker after being put on IR his rookie(only) season is likewise overvaluing our own player and missing an opportunity to take advantage of another team's poor salary cap management.

To me, RB is one of the fee strengths on this team. Although Helu is not as elusive as Sproles, he's more than capable of catching the ball out of the backfield. We just have too many other needs...tackle, guard, interior pass rusher, LB, secondary, WR..even TE.

You can't get an ILB in the draft who has played in your system for years. Just who would be playing ILB if we didn't re-sign Riley? Answer: We don't have anyone who isn't barely serviceable or constantly injured.

Sure draft an ILB in round 5. I'm all for it. But we also needed to re-sign Riley to anchor that unit.

Sproles is an absolute must. While I like Helu in that role Sproles is the best in the NFL at what he does. I can't count how many times I've seen him break long runs or take screen passes for 30+ yards or more on critical 3rd downs. He would help RG3 immensely because Sproles is the type of player you must game plan for. With that being said. Secondary and O-line should be the priority.

[artmonkforhallofamein07]

We still need to sign another ILB and draft one. There is no talent there. Riley? Robinson??? we need more there and a couple of those backups need to be special teamers (if we made a trade this year I call for bringing Zo back!)

I can't imagine Riley cost much after seeing what his value was.

John Keim is reporting that BA said this was wrong, and they have carried over the cap.

Got same response as @Russellmania980 from GM Bruce Allen about report that Skins failed to carry over $1.3 mill in cap space: "Wrong."

Russell is reporting now that the Skins were actually over the cap by 879k and enter free agency with 19.6 million in cap space.

We can still create a lot.

Sure...why resign him 5 years ago when we can wait and get him now....older, slower, and as not anywhere near as good. Genius. This would be like a Cleveland type move.
