I don’t think it’s the end of the world if Hankins doesn’t sign here. Think about all of the free agent busts over the years that fans were so happy with, when they signed. It’s definitely not the end of the world, but man, how long have we been looking for a NT? Now we have a chance at one of the better ones in the league that is just coming into his prime. You’re seeing in real time that mix of excitement that we have this opportunity, and the despair that we may well lose him. Calm is tough, lol.

BatteredFanSyndrome Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Just now, Tay said: How would you rank our roster? Meh. Not the worst and far from the best. Somewhere near middle of the pack when relatively healthy. The Redskins have the same cap to work with as everyone else. 3 minutes ago, dckey said: To me it's winning franchises that's making it work. HB, Richardson, others are going to give deals to a team they have a better chance of winning with. We would have to pay more for these players because we haven't won. You really believe a player like Richardson would have given us the same deal he gave the Vikings. Sure, that’s part of it. But what does that tell you about our franchise? I mean...

Stop believing that we should over pay for free agents So because I think you need to spend where needed in Free Agency, I don’t believe in the draft? Both are pivotal to winning. I hear a lot about overpaying FA without ever really knowing what’s been offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at last year it was reported that we offered Calais Campbell a better offer than Jacksonville. He was a great FA signing we went after him but he chose JAX for lesser, can you blame him. Your right we don't know what the real offer is but I feel like we can't automatically believe that we're the type of team especially on defense that good players are looking to play for.

If we could have filled this need in FA, it's a whole lot better to enjoy the draft and take advantage of top 5 talent falling to us.. there's not really a position I want us to take besides DL. Maybe an OL we could put at guard and then move to tackle when Trent retires but I'm not sure there's someone like that out there 10 minutes ago, BatteredFanSyndrome said: You’re of the belief that the site has gone toxic because of the fans?

Landry would be a great change of pace rusher to replace Galette and give us insurance for Smith. I wouldn’t be mad about Guice there either. We could also trade back and not freak out about missing on Vea/Payne/etc... wind up with a top back and G to get our ground game rolling. Point being, while losing out on Hankins doesn’t totally derail us, getting him just really opens up the draft possibilities for us. IMO of course.

I’m just nervous that with us Not signing any NEEDED position players in FA that it’ll cause us to reach for a player of need in the draft..it takes the pressure off and frees up the to take the BPA..just by signing JH we can concentrate on lb or safety help in the first two rounds!!
