So what have the Redskins gotten so far???....
-A Safety that Rams' fans hated because he couldnt cover your mom...in a cast!.....
-A DE/LB from a horrible team that doesnt play either position very well...
-A WR from the same horrible team that makes spectacular catches but drops routine balls....and gave up two nice draft picks for him....
-A WR/PR/ "?" that caught 35 passes last year and made a nice play in the Superbowl.
And all it cost them was about???????.....I cant say because obviously noone really knows. The Redskins' front office is pretty ridiculous...Every fan of every team would love to have Randle-El on their squad as nice role player or special teams guy, but for God's sake????....that kind of money.....this team's stupidity just ruins it for every other club out there trying to field a balanced team. And theyre still looking at nothing more than COMPLETE MEDIOCRITY at QB.......
Stop being a tool1) Archuleta is an elite SS. He was moved to FS last year and was terrible. Much like when Roy Williams had to play FS the year before in Dallas, it's a case of a guy who is an elite player at one safety position, but just can't cut it at the other. It doesn't mean that he is bad, he just isn't skilled to play FS. He is an elite SS though, which is what he's going to play. Sean Taylor plays FS (I don't expect him to miss any football. Leonard Little killed someone and nothing came of it.)
2) This is a big stretch considering the level of talent around him and the fact that his position that he finally grew into changed to LB. No one will argue that he struggled at times, but you'd also be hard-pressed to find someone that believes he's gotten worse. A change of scenery might be money for this guy, and he may well put up 12-15 sacks next year. It's not uncommon for DEs to take 4-5 years to really breakout. That he switched to LB doesn't mean he forgot how to play. "Go tackle the QB" is the same in every playbook.
3) Lloyd just needs some coaching. Also, as aforementioned and you mentioned as well, he was on a terrible team. Steve Young was on a terrible team. He turned out okay in San Francisco.
4) I really hope you aren't knocking Randle El. He is an obvious game-changer, and probably the best utility player in the league right now. I see a coming trend in guys like him who are jack-of-all-trades guys on offense becoming a hot commodity. That Reggie Bush, who will never be an every down back, is a consensus #1 pick this year is evidence of that. ARE can play QB, RB, and all three WR positions well. The potential for mismatches that he creates (and Bush will create) and the capitalization on those mismatches are what changes the outcomes of games. Just a few plays a game that make the difference.
5) It costs the Redskins no more than any other team to sign a player. The numbers just look bigger. The main difference with the Redskins is that they guarantee a lot more money and backload contracts. So while these guys are all averaging $5M a year over the next 5 or 6 years, they are also all playing for vet min this year and counting about $2M against the cap. So, in effect, they are very, very cheap.
6) Mark Brunell's stats/rankings last year: 85.9 QB rating (13th), 57.7% completion for 3050 yards (14th), 23TDs (T-7th), 10INTs. His 2.3:1 TD:INT ratio was 6th in the NFL this year. While guys like Roethlisberger, Manning, Hasselback and Palmer are out of his league, he was pretty much the cream of the 2nd tier crop last year. I'd take that for my QB any year. It isn't the best, but it is clearly much better than "COMPLETELY MEDIOCRE."
Lastly,

This is loaded with fallacious reasoning and faulty logic. You just argue in circles. And you pose questions and try to pose them as the bases for your arguments.For example, if I said:
Have you ever watched a day of football in your life???
Does that really make a point? No. It might lead the reader to believe something, but it doesn't make a point in itself.
You logic boils down to the following statement:
No one understands the Redskins, therefore they are stupid, therefore they must be cheating. By no one you mean you, and by stupid, you mean smarter than you.
