I can't fathom why he signed with the Redskins. With Reed, Paul, and Carrier, I don't imagine there being any opportunity there. Should've signed with the Falcons or Chargers (the wheels have to fall off Gates at some point and he's been running in quick sand for 2 years). Would've loved to have seen him in NO for at least a year in his prime, but even at 33 he could've been a beast there and much cheaper than the mediocre Fleener. Maybe he'll get cut when they realize they can't use him and don't want to pay him to sit.
