Stone Cold

Perhaps all was seen that was needed to see…Al la tmac a few years ago. If he’s sittin next week durin game planning and walk thrus, welp…..may be time to see what he’s worth

Love to see Hudson flying around. Been a fan of his since we drafted him. Really hoping he gets some run in the season…he’s always around the ball making plays

Winning is contagious. This year is gonna be special.

Looks like we’re ready

Done deal…turn the page

Welcome to the team! Stay healthy fella!

wish we could’ve gotten out of that pick. Will be interesting to see the contrast with him and Gonzalez since they were taken back to back. We’ve hit on dbs later in the draft previously and thought we’d do so this year. Don’t like the value right now but who knows….he gives us a half dozen turnovers a season I’m cool with it

Mannnnnnnn…..I am so happy. Sunny days are returning!

I would love a 1-3 of: Paris Johnson Kelee Ringo Drew Sanders

Been sayin I want this guy to sure up the second level. He’s a gamewrecker

Would absolutely love KK here to be OC

Sanders would so blow up our defense. Id love him in the first

Mannnnnn…..it’s just too good isn’t it

Sometimes you just need a ton of mayonnaise and a 5th rd qb1 lol

His tools are very comparable to josh Allen’s…I’m sure I’ll catch flack for that, but I believe it

Maybe 4 feels like 14 may actually have the goods. That combined with 4 recognizing his value maxes out in Washington, why not advocate for the starter and showcase your self awareness…show the organization you’re committed to being QB2 and helping 14 along…maybe?

I’ve got a major tuddy thinking about new ownership

I had tremendously high hopes for the ol ball coach. Boy was he out of his league and boy was I waaaaay wrong

Ugh that’s a fumble

I wanna see him ball as much as the next guy but the bottom line is we have tremendous equity in chase and to put him out there before he’s ready would be criminal. Now I wish we’d just ir him and use that roster spot somewhere else this season. get healthy 99…a little humble pie never hurt anyone

Agree with pretty much all of this except I’m not really sold on the kid from Clemson. Really love the kid from Arkansas who I think will actually grade out higher after pro day/combine numbers reveal themselves. The way we’re currently structured in conjunction with the way this draft lays out, plus what we do well, we should absolutely stack the deck in the front 7 then address the ol

I rarely start posts. There’s enough topics to add substance to. I gave this topic careful consideration because i think the topic of identity has not been carefully dissected and frankly given its due. If this isn’t your cup of tea, which it appears to have fallen on deaf ears in the forum regardless, just scroll on past brutha or provide some constructive input. All that said, I’ve been around football my entire life. I know what I’m watching when it comes to putting a ball club together. Im excited about us and what the future holds. I think we have something we can hang our hat on. Something we can point at and say, this is what we do, now let’s continue building in said direction.

Go back over the years, all the way back to our last Super Bowl win. We have tried coaches, free agents, retread qbs, qbs that were not good from jump, front office change and even the return of Joe Gibbs to establish an identity. Someone, anyone that could come in and we could say “that’s redskins/WFT/commanders football.” Thing is….we have had no identity for 30 years. Then…something changed a few years ago. For Starters…insert having draft picks and actually hitting on them. We slowly transitioned from being a team perpetually “close”, lol, that made horrible impulse roster decisions; using draft picks as trade bait for other teams garbage, getting middling to no result from fas that we acquired; swinging and missing on QB every single time. All the while, we were plugging in holes with pieces that didn’t fit a puzzle. We didn’t know that ahead of time bc we didn’t know what our puzzle looked like to begin with. Then we started drafting. Jay couldn’t establish an identity…he was too busy scaring bees with the ol boobie twist. But what happened while jay was here was this…we started drafting football players. The nucleus or foundation of our team was drafted. We hit on mclaurin, Allen, Payne for starters. Unbeknownst to us, we were too busy sulking with jay as coach, we were slowly building a roster. Insert RR and the identity begins to take shape. Without a true identity and a franchise in perpetual turmoil, RR came in and continued to build on what we had. Without an established identity, our roster became littered with talented football players that were smart, hard working and versatile. Take a quick look at our roster and you will see homegrown talent…guys we’ve drafted and developed. But developed to do what? What is it we do? We run the ball, play defense and don’t turnover the ball more than we take it away. With that recipe, we have already won super bowls. With that recipe, we, along with other teams, have proven that it can and does still work in todays nfl. Now…we’re not close to a finished product. We have holes. Most teams do. But what we’ve done is establish an identity with our own talent. We now can make informed decisions based on what we do. In finding our identity, we’ve narrowed a focus on what we actually need to move forward. I believe in knowing what theyre doing now works, the players have a new level of confidence going in each game. A confidence knowing that if they do their job, they’ll be in position to win most games. That’s all you can ask for in the nfl. So what’s the next step? The obvious answer is QB. We all know it. RR knows it. 4 knows it and he won’t run because of it. Wentz can’t be the answer with the state of our ol. He just can’t or he’ll be a sack magnet. A QB that is mobile with the ability to hit on all throws is what we need. Does this man have to be picked in a certain round? Do we already have him on the roster in Sam Howell?…I think yea but I don’t want to overly simplify the answer. I do know this. Soon as 4s leverage of knowing the playbook is out the window, RR will be ready to see what this team can really do and 4 will be back to being everyone’s favorite backup. And that’s awesome because he’s a huge part of our identity.

Yeah I get all that. And true transition will take time. Thing is, I dont underestimate the energy suck that little man is on our performance. And with him gone, id be willing to bet on a significant increase in attendance as well

I understood the point being made here but Dans willingness to sell is pretty much moot at this point. The owners want him gone…and they’re saturated with cause to vote him out. I was at the Vikings game right after the news came out. You could feel an atmosphere of hope at the stadium. The team goin on this run immediately after news of Dan selling is poetic justice. we’re on the verge of being a perennial contender. A team that was built from the ground up via the draft in spite of Dans best meddling efforts. This off-season is going to be special when we can finally move forward. ….and Danny boy will have to sit and watch us eat as a franchise.
