Re: Who should we go for in Free Agency?
Or re-sign/extend contracts of the guys we want to keep. Like Trent Williams and Ryan Kerrigan need to done and it will lower their 2015cap number to boot. Win/win.

Re: Who should we go for in Free Agency?
I don't see anything wrong with signing good, young Free Agents as part of the build plan. One of the main things we've done wrong in FA is to sign players who are too old and too expensive. There are FA's who could help us who are as young as 25 years old. These younger FA's have proven that they can play in the NFL and they can still be developed to become even better players.
We've just been plagued by a bad Front Office for many years. They've made many poor decisions in both the draft and in FA. We haven't been any better in drafting than we've been in FA. I think that our FO needs to do a better job of evaluating all types of players. I also don't believe it's been proven that the path to success is to go exclusively with the draft. As far as I know, all NFL teams sign FA's. I recall that when SM was introduced he said that he would use FA. I expect him to do so judiciously. |

Time to be honest, we have used picks in the draft along the lines, none have panned outside of Silverback. Thats bad front office, bad coaching and bad scouting.

I told folks last year to get Flowers when he was stupidly released. Flowers perdictably went on to play on at a high level, Chiefs defense went on to play like garbage.

Re: Who should we go for in Free Agency?
Two good drafts and some smart value shopping in FA could have us in a whole new world by the end of '16 season. Forget spending a bunch of money in FA. Do a good job drafting and save money to sign the good players you drafted and developed.

Re: Who should we go for in Free Agency?
Actually no, the Skins haven't used picks on the O line. Chris Samuels, Jon Jansen, and Trent Williams are the only linemen drafted in the first two rounds during the past 15 yrs (at lrast that I can recall). Was has mainly relied in free agency, when they've bothered to do anything for the group.

Re: Who should we go for in Free Agency?
It is impossible for them to fix the defense in one offseason. They need to replace at least 7 of our starters. The only thing I would do in FA, is sign a few good lockerroom guys if the prices are low.

Re: Who should we go for in Free Agency?
Yes, but I'm not saying use FA's to fill a hole or two. I'm saying that FA's seem to be getting younger all the time, so if the Skins could only do a good job of scouting and researching the work ethic and character of young FA's, then they might be able to pick up a few at value prices to supplement each draft. They would be essentially the same as draft picks only better because they have already proven they belong in the NFL.
