Fanspeak: Redskins Offseason

1- I am not very high on Aqib Talib.  I agree with Steve and disagree with Chris Cooley, and this is not a smart move now. Add to that I am getting tired of the whole Tampa thing.  When does this stop?  Tampa was not that good under Bruce Allen and Raheem Morris as well … More »

By: Justin Partlow When the 2013 season ended, the reality started to set in for Redskins fans, London Fletcher was about to finally retire from playing football. Fletcher was a favorite among the fans, and was able to inspire both on and off the field. Fletcher left the game on top, and now has the … More »

1- Safety       It’s been a long time since I have been confident in either of the two safeties the Washington Redskins have put on the field. I was never a Laron Landry guy so you have to go back to Sean Taylor for me to approve of a safety wearing burgundy and … More »

It’s been a couple weeks since I originally posted the Fanspeak Redskins draft board. If this is completely new to you, here is a link to the original post explaining how it works. Over the past few weeks, the guys have been adding names here and there, with the board starting to take some shape.Some … More »

1- Trent Williams has the highest cap number for the Redskins at almost $11 million. Good thing is in the past Washington would be forced to rework this deal but this off-season they are able to probably wait another year to deal with it since they are sitting in very good overall cap shape.  Williams … More »

This Redskins draft board is a project I’ve been running over on Hogs Haven the past few years. I try to get together a group of guys that follow the draft and, of course, are Redskins fans, to  evaluate draft prospects based on their fit with the Redskins. This year we have the HTTR 24-7 … More »

1. Signing Deangelo Hall to another crazy deal like Vinny Cerrato did the past and doing it way too premature. If in the next few weeks before free agency even starts if Bruce Allen locks up Hall to some 5 or 6 year deal for crazy guaranteed money I will be concerned where this is … More »

1- Brian Orakpo          Out of the players who were on the team in 2013 Orakpo is the biggest heading towards free agency.  From what it sounds like it doesn’t sound like the Redskins are going to be willing to let Orapko just walk away.  The team may look into working on … More »

1. Defense Matters: -Everyone always wants to talk how this is an offensive league, but typically top defenses make the playoffs and have postseason success. Last night’s game obviously epitomized it, but it was a theme throughout these entire playoffs. Seattle’s defense was amazing throughout the post season and really carried this team to victory. … More »

Last week I was very negative on the Redskins and what the organization has done post season and post Mike Shanahan.  So I thought it would be fair to try and come up with some positives as we head towards the off season.  Although I find myself also finding negatives from these positives.      … More »
