This is one of those situations where there will not be a CBA agreement in place in March.

The NFL is going to go uncapped, and we face the very real possibility of a work stoppage in 2011.

Too many owners simply do not like this deal and are willing to go to war over it

As for the Commanders, its going to take 3 full off seasons to get back to a competitive level

Do you think it'll take that long? Atlanta did it in one. Hope springs eternal. ;)

At minimum. There is a lot of work to be done

If things work out real well, the 3 NFCE QBs will either be retiring (McNabb) or well into their 30s. (Romo, Eli)

Could be the right time to be on the upswing to start the next decade

Players that you can "build around"

On O

D. Thomas
F. Davis
M. Kelly
C. Cooley

C. Rino is on the bubble, jury still out on him

Probably keep Ganther or Aldrige at RB

D. Dockery stays because you can't have 5 new o-lineman starting from one year to the next

Basically though the entire o-line and RB corps needs to be re-built. Along with a QB

I don't think they can get rid of Rabach yet either -- I don't think he's that bad.

On D

Haynesworth and Orakpo on the d-line

Fletcher stays for another year

McIntosh is solid

As much as I dislike D-Hall, he will be around for a while

Horton, Doughty and Moore stay. A decision will need to be made on Landry

You have a few more tools to work with on D then on O

Carter as well. I would also like to move Landry back to SS, and put Rogers at FS...

I agree on Hall...and make due with Tryon and Barnes...

Oh man we are going to suck next year...

Fletcher is one of those "hard working good character vets" that you need around a young team

Fletcher has earned the right to be the Skins MLB until he retires. He can teach the incoming kids how to play the game right. It's not about worthless accolades such as the Pro Bowl. It's about conducting yourself with class and professionalism.

I know what he does, I just don't think he fits in a list of players you can build around. Be honest, the Commanders players who fit on that list are rare. Rarer than you opted to admit by creating a list that included players like London Fletcher...

What's it going to be then, eh?

Considering the awful way they have been used, and the fact that they are far far from finished products, I am not ready to write them off yet.

If they are playing like Roy Williams in year 6, I will then :)

Only Commanders fans could extend their dominance of being offseason champions to the regular season.

Washington Commanders: Offseason Champions.

I like it.:thumbup:

the only way the Skins are going to be successful is if they rebuild

that is something Snyder will never do
