Report ---Redskins plan to spend large again
If and when the lockout ends and totally free agency happens, the Redskins strategy to be big spenders.

GM Bruce Allen said the Redskins will probably be "as aggressive as any team" when totally free company starts."We ready for various choices and can be able to be as aggressive as any group in the league based on what the guidelines are," Allen says in the story.
A lot depends on what the brand new CBA guidelines are, obviously. If 2011 is an additional uncapped year that mimics the 2010 guidelines, then gamers with less than six years' really worth of support time will not be unrestricted free agents. If there's a cap, there is a good opportunity the UFA pool will probably be much bigger. Both way would suit Allen's apparent plan to add items once the lockout ends.
What sorts of items? Nicely, I still think they will go out searching for a quarterback, simply because I think the John Beck stuff is really a red herring. (Sorry, John. If it tends to make you feel much better, I'm often incorrect.) And whilst I like the Leonard Hankerson choose, I nonetheless think they could use some help at receiver. However the primary objective for Allen once he's able to add to the roster should and likely will be the addition of items that fit Jim Haslett's 3-4 defense. They addressed this require with their first two draft picks, however they require more help, and I'd still anticipate their big-game hunting to occur on the defensive side with the ball, as they pursue guys like Nnamdi Asomugha and Cullen Jenkins.

We'll see.
I mean, at least I think we'll. Sometimes you do need to wonder in the event the lockout will ever before finish, don't you?
Had a fun first few days with you guys. I'll most likely slow it down around the weekend a bit, but I nonetheless owe you some mailbag stuff on Donovan McNabb and image makeovers, so look for that. Meantime, have fun racking up the comment complete on the Eli/Romo post. Which was all I dreamed it might be and much more. A disadvantaged Cleveland and also the Zero.
