Top 2012 free agents: A perfect fit at center? - Rich Tandler's Real Redskins
You don’t have to connect too many dots to put Myers in a Redskins uniform if they are in the market for a new center. He was drafted by Mike Shanahan in Denver and he played in Houston when Kyle Shanahan was an assistant. The only drawback is his age; Myers will be 31 before Week 2 of next season.

RT's 5: Haz, Kyle likely to fill in at Senior Bowl - Rich Tandler's Real Redskins
Rich Tandler's five thoughts possibly related to the Washington Redskins and other matters: 5. Although the Patriots are one of the best teams in the NFL, their path to the AFC title game has been highly suspect. They went the whole year, including the playoffs, without beating a team that finished with a winning record. Their defense ranked 31st in the NFL. They are a one-trick pony although that trick is pretty impressive with Brady throwing to Gronkowski and Hernandez...

Mike Shanahan Represents New Era of Stability for Washington Redskins | Washington Redskins

If the Redskins ever want to get on track, it will start with keeping a coach more than two or three years. Mike Shanahan can be that coach, if nothing happens in the off season.

I'm really looking forward to the Senior Bowl...

I’m glad Steveo is posting on it, I’d love to hear Foles progress through the week

Uh, its Steve Shoup now....this isn't 2011 anymore, get with the times, guy
But yea, I'm excited to hear about Foles as well
haha...

can we compromise to Steveo Shoup

haha all of the above are valid

This Sean Taylor murder trial has been dragging on for……ev…..er. Lock him and throw away the key already.

also make him find us a safety that had the skill set of sean taylor
Jabar Gaffney was a good find last year.

Too bad his buddy Rex won’t be on the roster in 2012.

Bring Gaffney back. He's the kind of vet you need around a young team.
All of our receivers would have an equal % if they had three arms like Gaffney
It's a third leg....and I think it's why he doesn't have breakaway speed
I was probably

More critical of the trade for Gaffney than anyone, because I liked the potential Jarmon showed. To me, this just seemed like yet another stupid trading young for old Redskins move. But I admit when I’m wrong (makes it easier when it so rarely happens), and I was 100% wrong here. For the first time in 7(?) years, Moss was not our best receiver.

anybody else PISSED about this years outcome

we sucked
we sucked we sucked

our young guys showed potential and the only one to not get hurt was Kerrigan (thank Jesus) and some of the 5th+ rounders but i’m talking starters

were so short at wr

we don’t have a QB

London Fletcher might not be back and if he is he’s still old

Josh Wilson is our only good corner sometimes

The team needs swagger

Laron Landry might not be back

yeah but we can address that in the draft

QB, shit we’ll have to trade a fortune for the #2 best qb who is even questionable in his abilties as an NFL QB….screwed

OL, the best T in Kalil will be gone….sweet (#sarcasm)

WR the best WR will probably be gone and if not he’s still only 6’ 1"

MLB we could use that but it really wouldn’t be beneficial this year

CB we probably wont get Clairborne so that leaves us with another pot head…

S….no

so basically were screwed we should move our team to la and start a new expansion team in DC. Thankfully Dan Snyder will be in LA with the LA Tanskins and we can start a new team owned by Ted Leonsis that called the American Flags, our jersey will just be a flag draped over every player. And somehow he has luck to get the best players in the draft therefore we will be good in 5 years guaranteed.

Step away from the ledge
I've never been so down in my life about the Redskins

maybe this is why Dan Snyder brings in big name free agents, in hope they do something, giving him hope makes him happy, therefore preventing himself from ending it all. GET MATT FLYNN, no don’t why would I say that!? This has got to be the hardest year to be a Redskins fan ever.

I was far more discouraged during the final days of Zorn. The team completely quit at the end of that season, and prospects looked very dim for the future.
i thought the swinging gate x2

was a bright spot

well there was hope in that season

we were getting a new coach

wheres the hope now.

We're getting a new QB. And we had a great 2011 draft. And we have some solid young players emerging. I think there is a lot of cause for hope for this team.
Yea

RGIII is going to look good in a Skins unform

what qb will we get

cause i don’t want a turd that we have to trade up for and give up next years 1. and i don’t want to waste a pick on a bum like Tannehill or foles in 1. I’d love Blackmon but he’s only 6’1 I’d like Claiborne but I don’t think we’ll get him even if he falls to us. The great players in round 1 will be gone or not of our needs.

With optimism and sound judgment like yours, where can we go wrong?
I've been optimistic for 20 years

time to be pessimistic, I mean look what happened to the Lions once their fans started boycotting games and hating their team they actually became good

Yea, hate and neglect is exactly what turned that franchise around

And lets not call them “good yet”. They had a decent season and lost in the wild card round, whoopie.

Kool-Aid

The Redskins went into last year’s draft with a measly 6 picks (no 3rd or 4ths) …and left with 12…all of whom made the active roster.

This year the Skins have 8 picks (every round pick + an extra 4th rounder). SUPER BOWL.

I think I just had an epiphany

Now hear me out. The Redskins will not get RG3 unless we get a trade, the dolphins probably get matt flynn. Now lets say the Dolphins still want to move up to secure a top talent. We can exchange our first and get an extra second, meaning we can grab Michael Floyd or Ashlon Jeffries in the first, Tannehill and a OT in the 2nd or Reiff in the first, Tannehill, Toon in the second

i think this strategy would be great. We wouldn’t move down to far and we could still get QB OL WR in the first 2 rounds

So you're saying Miami signs Flynn...then trades up to get RG3?
Linking to yourselves?

Really?
