Just A Little Off-Season Update



Yes, it's true the Redskins do actuaually have some decent news to report. The current talk is over wide reciever Laveranues Coles; rumors are saying that the reciever might not be very happy with his current team. The fact that our offense finished 30th (near last in the league) and that our coach, Joe Gibbs, has a game plan which is inconsistant with Coles' ideal makes for an unhappy reciever. The Redskins have one of two possible choices to make on how to deal with Coles. The team can either trade him to another team or simply keep him for another year and try to make him happier.
The main and currently only trade being dicussed would be for the Jets wide reciever Santana Moss.
Santana Moss is a good reciever, putting up less receptions but more touchdowns than Coles last year. In reference to the plausibility of this tade Gibbs Had this to say, "for us, Laveranues is a very valuable guy and if we can work something out with somebody, that would be fine, if not, he probably will remain a Redskin. Right now, (a trade) is not on the horizon. If we do not work out a trade, we'll go down the road with L.C. as a Redskin." That Gibbs is a nice guy and all but I say, if he doesn't wan't to be a Redskin then just get rid of the loser regardless.
Line backer Lemar Marshall is the only other Redskin who has recently been brought up in the news. Lemar is the linebacker who filled in for our good friend LaVar Arrington while he was injured. Lemar put up career-high numbers with 82 tackles and 1.5 sacks during this time. These numbers led some to believe that Marshall might pursue free agency this off season. He has decided to remain a Redskin thoguh, signing a 3 year 2 million dollar contract. That's really all thats worth posting lately, more on the Coles trade when the info. comes.
