Fanspeak: Washington Commanders

While it is still early in the offseason and a lot will happen between now and training camp to re-shape the Redskins roster, the early moves have been focused solely on the defense, and rebuilding that side of the football. In the 5 years since Mike Shanahan and Bruce Allen came to town, the defense … More »

1- Free agency started real boring for the Redskins.  But that is not a problem with most.  And some steam picked up last night & this morning.           I still think the Redskins will add a few guys to their roster but it’s not gonna be like the last fifteen years.  … More »

The Redskins have only signed defensive lineman Stephen Paea so far in free agency and appear to be taking a fairly measured approach. 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 »

Nothing on Robert Griffin this week.  I need a break. 1- One of the things that concerned me coming out of the Combine is that many analysts see the safety position pretty weak at the top after Alabama’s Landon Collins. And taking Collins at number five sounds way too high when better impact players will … More »

Here are my thoughts on the Shanny interview which has taken over DC.  All based on believing him of course. – Finding out he couldn’t stop the McNabb trade scared me and scares me for the future. Wasn’t he supposed to have had full control of decisions?  Guess not.  Shocked he lasted two more seasons … More »

I went through and did some cap management using the Manage the Cap app. First up I made a list of guys that should out right be cut.  Some of them save a lot of money and some of them just need to go unfortunately.  Sadly a couple guys have been solid contributors in the past but this … More »

The Redskins are a team with limited talent but has a lot of money invested into one position.   Washington has invested heavily into two starters in Pierre Garcon and DeSean Jackson and larger than normal in a third receiver in Andre Roberts.  Although Washington is not in any kind of salary cap problems it is … More »

1- A lot was made about our favorite player this week.  Robert Griffin III was back in the news for a couple reasons.      Again, I still believe once camp starts he will not be on this roster.  Chris Cooley disagrees and thinks he will be the starter for sure and will have to … More »
