Fanspeak: Redskins Personnel

With the main part of free agency done and the draft now completed the Redskins depth chart has begun to take shape. Here’s how each pick could effect the Redskins depth chart. 1. T/G Brandon Scherff- -There is no doubt that Scherff is starting, and it appears to be at right tackle. That leaves incumbent … More »

1- The schedule release was the major news of the past week. In the next week or so I will give my full win/loss breakdown of each game, which is way too early to call.  I think last year at this time I had like 10-6.  So take it for what that is worth.  Opening … More »

Wanna know why the Redskins have been bad for twenty years?  Just check their draft history page on wikipedia.  Here are some of the embarrassing highlights in order of least to worst in my opinion.  Please help us Scot McCloughan!  I got 11 because I couldn’t cut to 10. Note:  I eliminated the last three … More »

For a couple years now the Redskins have been rumored to be attempting to trade QB Kirk Cousins but haven’t yet.  Also now Robert Griffin III has to be available for the taking if a deal was out there.  I just don’t think the return value is there and here is why. Teams you can … More »

LIKES: -Overall I am very encouraged by what the Redskins did in free agency during Scott McCloughan’s first go around.  Although it is way overplayed how the Redskins spend Yankees-like money usually in free agency since it hasn’t been like that in at least five years, I like the safe spending methods.  There is nothing … More »

Here is a look at some free agent options that might make sense for the Redskins. Today I will focus on offensive line, defensive line and pass rusher options. I’ll look at … More »

1- Ndamukong Suh This has a 4:01 pm next Tuesday Redskins One departure written all over it.  But Vinny isn’t around and hopefully Danny isn’t making the call.  But I do think they should have an interest and see what it would cost.  And then once it gets crazy…abort quickly.  Too many holes to use a huge … More »

Here is my rundown of the Redskins’ most important needs in order of Most to Least: 1- Safety They still need someone who can play the position.  The defense has sucked for years now and the one position they have never found anyone since Zorn has been safety.  They have had linebackers and defensive lineman … More »
