MattFancy Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 http://voices.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/bruce-allen/allen-were-going-100-mph-getti.html In case there was any doubt, Redskins fans can expect to see a very different product on the field next season. "We are going to have a new style of defense, we are going to have a new style of offense," general manager Bruce Allen said today on ESPN 980. "It's going to be Redskins football, and the pieces we can acquire this year will be the first steps to building that philosophy." Allen made his comments during an in-person appearance on "The John Thompson Show," this afternoon in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Allen made a quick visit to radio row at the Super Bowl media center, making stops by the ESPN 980 table and the Sirius booth. He offered few specifics but when he was asked about Clinton Portis' status with the team, Allen noted that the running back has met with Coach Mike Shanahan, and "we're looking forward to seeing Clinton help us win," Allen said. Allen said he's meeting with officials from other teams in south Florida, formulating early trade ideas and plans for this fall's roster. "We're going 100 miles an hour getting ready for free agency," Allen said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattFancy Posted February 4, 2010 Author Share Posted February 4, 2010 Definitely sounds like CP is going to be sticking around. I like that they are talking to other teams about trades. Nothing wrong with seeing what might be available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor 36 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Interesting. Still, he didn't tell us anything. People who used to get mad at Gibbs for his coach speak better get a grip, because now we have coach AND GM speak coming from Ashburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

styx491 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Maybe we'll see more player for player trades this offseason, especially with us since we have fewer draft picks and with the salary cap situation the way it'll be... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Trades- I like that. I think it's more of the Redskins trying to trade our players for either draft picks or other teams players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a strong feeling that Carter will be part of those talks. Coming off an 11 sack season, but with no room to put him in the 3-4; common logic would place him at the top of those talks, IMO.

Rocky21 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Finally something good from The John Thompson Show. Allen has the benefit of the doubt from me at this point because he isn't Snyder or Cerrato. Go Skins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
