If he was doing that, you would think he would hold onto draft picks like they were gold instead of trading future resources for low first round picks.

I think he wants to win and win now.

He's not purging the Skins except for the malcontents (coles, Gardner) that don't want to be there.

No way in hell do you get rid of Taylor. Like it or not, he's the BEST player on the team. Everybody gives Taylor a bunch of crap, but Moss is the one that should be getting it about not being at the workouts.

I wish they would trade Moss now.

Gibbs is not getting rid of anybody that he feels is going to help the Redskins win and win now. He is trying to find the right group of guys to put out onto the field. He is not going to get rid of Arrington. He will not get rid of Taylor, but I have a feeling that Taylor may not be here in Washington after his rookie Contract is up.

At no point do I question Joe Gibbs .It's the Redskin players who are doing that .Arrrington is being an ASS and Gardner, Moss and I don't believe Gibbs likes Taylor,from day 1 Taylor has been a pain . Gibbs wants the old days back and he knows it works(all for one and one for all).These guys are all for them selves and as the Pats have proven it's as much team chemistry as it is talent .And we all know he doesn't want Ramsey as QB.:cheers:

Of course Gibbs wants to win now, win next year, win the year after that, etc ,etc.

And if you look at his track record it didn't take his ass long to win.

What irritates Redskins fans is when some dolt fan of a loser team comes in here, and in a smug arrogant way offers his 2 cents when none of us wants to hear it and tosses out troll bait such as "on the surface this is the worst trade since the Hershel Walker trade"

But of course this concept won't get through your thick skull

Not sure who Ramset is, but I think that I would have to agree. With a name like that, no way I'd want him either. As for the guy named Ramsey, I'd ask you how "you" know because I've "read" in just the past 2 days how Joe wants him on the Redskins. And ya know, the "old" days had some interesting folks on it too. What Joe is able to do is build a team and chemistry with guys like that on the team.

After 2006 the cap will increase by at least 10 percent if not more thanks to the new TV deal.

Getting rid of the Coles contract along with Samuels re-structuring this past year and not blowing our wads on Smoot and Pierce will actually take us to cap heaven. We are going to have plenty of room next offseason

i agree people need to stop listening to ESPN and "Mike and Mike", implying that Gibbs doesn't like Ramsey. I also agree with how Gibbs runs the team.. when you think about it he's like the Phil Jackson of football, with blending complex personalities to persue a team goal.. i mean for God's sakes hasn't he won 3 SB's?!!?!?!?

Not even a nice backpeddle.

Uh uh. No way. See. You have, before the draft, stated the Skins will be in cap hell in 2006. So clearly you already know the Skins cap situation. Can't have it both ways Giantone. Either you know it or you don't. You say you know it. Prove it.

Originally posted by andyman


Actually you are wrong, and it goes to the point of what, I guess, Vinny/the team was trying to get across.

The release/quote said this (and I paraphrase):

"The Washington Post incorrectly reported that the Skins were in discussions with the Raiders to trade the 9th pick in the draft for Buchanon."

"That is not true," Cerrato said. "We are not trading that pick."


It was very clear in the release that Vinny was talking about the Buchanon situation. The Post, and other media, took the second part of that quote and used it as "proof" that Vinny was not in synch with Gibbs.

So the Post delivers a story that says, in essence, that Gibbs and Cerrato are at odds. And you expect the team to let that stand?

Gibbs was also pointed in noting that the Post story asked him and Vinny very different questions and interpreted their answers to show the two were not on the same page. And you believe the team should let that stand.

Sean Taylor will be a problem every year. He's just very immature, childish, and selfish. He is a very talented player though, but like in the Dallas game...he'll blow it when the team really needs him.

The Redskins will never learn. They continue to trade valueable picks of the future away. I hate to say it, but I believe Joe Gibbs is out of his element in today's football. You might could trade away your picks 20 years ago, but not now.

ArmchairRedskin
April-22nd-2005, 05:58 AM
It's not like what Dallas has been doing is working either. One 10-6 season in the midst of a bunch of 5-11 and 6-10 seasons. :rolleyes:

Also if you wanna judge Sean Taylor's career by his rookie season, then I you'd have to say Julius Jones will injury himself every year and miss the rest of every season.

Maybe you "might could" think about that before passing judgement on the Redskins next time.

No, I think that you are quoting what you read or heard somewhere else without quoting it. Like Kiper for instance, he has been saying "Gibbs wants to win now" for days...

You heard that and repeated it because you don't have an opinion, you are just repeating what you heard IMHO.

Sigh. Don't know everything about everything, but if the above is any example, it's safe to say we know more than you. You started this thread saying the Skins would be in cap hell. My bad. I assumed you knew the cap situation of the Redskins when you posted that. I should have known by a couple of the following posts you were just being a good little lemming and repeating that what you have heard or read, ( did I say read? :doh: ).

The press doesn't understand the cap. There are folks on this board who really do understand the cap. From what I have learned from them the 2006 cap situation will be relatively problem free for the Redskins. 2005 was the tough year. You really have to dig for the information, which is not something sports reporters do. The Redskins should be able to do some serous but selective free agent shopping next year. My advice is to keep your eyes on the CBA negotiations and ignore the big name pundits who just mail it in.

At last count the Skins have about $21 mil in option bonuses counting against the 2006 cap. The option is controled by the team, and allows the those bonuses to be prorated out a minimum of three more years. So what the press reads as as $21 mil in 2006 cap money will be reduced to $7 mil at the Skins discretion.

If a new CBA is signed then those bonuses could be pro-rated out even further than 3 years.

In addition the 2006 cap may see a significant increase due to new TV contracts and a new CBA. No one knows (guesses range beween $90 mil and $100 mil), but a safe bet is that the the 2006 cap will be $95 mil. Most press reports are assuming a much lower cap.

how much of your cap space is gone in just those players ?


Man, i just wasted 11 minutes of my life. I was going to go into this one and mention the actually cap figures this year of each of these guys PLUS the cap relief AFTER this year with the departure of Lav AND the decisions to let go of Pierce and Smoot, AND get into the whole Sean Taylor thing. Then i considered my audience and his apparent understanding of the issues, then i just decided to write this.

Bailey wanted to depart. He is gone. Coles wanted to depart. He is gone. Pierce I think was strictly up to the highest bidder. He would have played in Cleveland if they had offered $1 more than the Giants. Smoot could have returned and I think the move to let him go was a business decision.

So, players are leaving. Guys that for one reason or another don't fit into the long-term plan here.

And that is certainly part of Gibbs' plan. Bring in guys loyal to him and who are willing to give 100% without the attendant whining we have seen from some guys on this team from 2000-2003.

But Arrington won't be leaving. Neither will Taylor.

These guys are signed long-term and are not liabilities except they have big mouths and often speak at the wrong time. But I don't think in either case these players are true malcontents or guys that are looking to divide a locker room.
