I am not sure exactly who might have re-signed or not already but by looking at the original lists im gonna put a list of WR and DE that should be available that kind of jump out at me and we could all look at them.

WR
Brandon Lloyd RFA (i think he would be the best to compliment moss, so i started with him)
Antonio Bryant UFA
Antwaan Randle El UFA
Az-Zahir Hakim UFA
Corey Bradford UFA
Ike Hilliard UFA
Jabar Gaffney UFA
Jerome Pathon UFA
Joe Jurevicious UFA
Keenan McCardell UFA
Kelley Washington RFA
Koren Robinson UFA
Peter Warrick UFA
Quincy Morgan UFA
Reche Caldwell UFA
Reggie Wayne UFA (If the colts dont re sign him and for the right price he would also be a great pickup)

DE
Anthony Weaver UFA
Darren Howard UFA
John Abraham UFA
Kalimba Edwards UFA
Kimo Von Oelhoffen UFA
Kyle Vanden Bosch UFA (real interesting, could be a great pickup, should really look into him)
N.D. Kalu UFA
Robert Mathis RFA (colts dont have a ton of cap room to try to retain him)

Those are just the names that stuck out to me, if anyone else has some more they think would be good please enlighten me.

If we go after any RFA i definately think Brandon Lloyd of the 49ers would make a great compliment to moss, he is a 6-0 195 lb possession type and has ok speed and has been a bright spot for the niners and would definately improve on a winning team, Although theyre saying the 49ers will set a high tender on him and try to hold on to him.

2005 Season Stats 48 Rec 733 Yards 15.3 Avg 5 TD

I wouldn't mind seeing Randel El in a skins uniform next year. Move Patten to number 3 where he belongs, get a legit down field threat opposite Moss, and pickup a WR in the draft!

Wayne played with Moss at Miami......something could develop there if he is available.

One WR I believe is a FA, but not listed on here is David Givens. Great posession receiver and awesome in the Red Zone.

Wayne and Moss are very close friends from what I've read, if the Colts don't franchise him there is a good chance we can land him.

Randle El IMO would be the best fit because he is a solid receiver and a great returner. He would aid our special teams in a big way and would kill two birds with one stone.

Reggie Wayne would be awesome, but i think hes gonna want big money. Randel el would be pretty sweet. And Brandon Lyod would work too. Just not sure how much cash they are gonna want and if we can afford.

Brunell is a turd. The skins looked like the worst offense in the league last night.Gibbs play calling resembled the area inbetween a women's leggs. Not having a #2 receiver who can run a route our catch a ball hurts too. Why didn't the skins blitz last tight. oh my god that was the worst game I've ever seen. The seahawks gave them three turnovers and the skins still lost. Somebody needed to step up and say I have some balls on the offesene last night. the only person to do so was Moss. I love that dude. That's all I can take from last nights game into the offseason is I love Moss. Portis is ok but the rest off them can go to hell. The O line is doo doo. Chris Samuels is a big vagiana. If the skins bring that offense into the high school state playoffs, then maybe they'll when a championship. I guess all I'm saying is to be in the situation they were in last night and just poop it away makes me mad, real mad

Dude... you have 5 minutes to go around and clean up your mess. You wanna post something... post it once.... not a dozen times.

If I have to clean up the mess.... then I'll finish up the work with suspending your account... and ignoring your PM won't make a world of difference.

I think Wayne wants to be a #1 somewhere. HE's probably tired of not being the primary guy with Harrison and Gibbs is not gonna pay him more than moss to have him as a #2.

I think Eric Moulds would be a great fit for us. He may be released or traded.

Wayne would be nice but also too expensive IMO. In Sporting News magazine they also said the Skins might try to go after Seahawks pro bowl guard Steve Hutchinson to replace Dockery, that could be a great pickup but expensive as well. Randle El is real high on my wishlist because of his speed and versatility. Brandon Lloyd would be a good #2 also, but I think SanFran will re-sign him. As for DE's we should look into the relatively cheaper Kalimba Edwards or maybe Robert Mathis which would both tremendously help our pass rush.

I hope the titans dont re sign vanden bosch, he put up 12 sacks last year and he was a high draft pick out of college i think for the cardinals, just got injured alot and was on a nowhere team and if the titans dont try to keep him we should look into him if he doesnt want a ton of money.

Brandon Lloyd is very good and so is Reggie Wayne

Wayne can 'want' to be a #1 somewhere all he wants, that's what Gardener wanted too and look what it got him. I am not going to speculate, after the off season moves turned out so well last year, I'm putting 100% confidence in Gibbs & Co. to pick who fits and I'm supporting them 100%.

I too like Wayne, however I know he will be too expensive to get but if we could get Randle El at a good price, I'd love to get him. He's got speed, hands, and he can throw (you know, bust out some trick plays) He would also put an end to our PR problems.

But other low profile guys who I would like to pick up as a solid number 2 are Keenan McCardell who had 2 solid seasons in San Diego, and since he's pretty old I bet we could get him pretty cheap and he could fill the role a couple of years until we pick up a stud young WR in the draft.

But I also think Joe Jurivicious would be a nice pickup. He had an outstanding year in Seatlle and if we could get him at a reasonable price for 2/3 years I think he would be a great pickup.

No way that Reggie Wayne is a Redskin next year. I think that the Colts will resign him and if they don't he will get a huge deal as a free agent and most likely be out of our price range.

I'm with Hogster, I think that Eric Moulds would be a perfect fit here. He is a physical, tough receiver that has good speed and good hands. The Bills are almost certainly going to cut him so hopefully we have enough room under the cap to sign him.

I love the offseason! When D Snyder gets his checkbook out and tells Gibbsy and Williams to fill their holes.... hope they continue to fill wisely....

Add Peerless Price to the list. I think the Redskins will have a chance to pick up one of the colts players because they are not going to have enough money to pay of them Wayne,Mathis,James and Freeney next year. Correct me if am wrong on anything. Wayne would be to much. I like Lloyd and Givens for RFA. Bryant and Wayne for UFA. DE Like Bosch and Mathis in our price range. Also Robinson I really like him.

No, Peerless Price is shot. Really. He hasn't been the same since he left Buffalo, and believe me...we have one guy on the staff that knows all about Peerless Price.
We do need a taller target...along the lines of Monk. Not necessarily a possession guy, but along those lines.

wayne and moss were an amazing duo at miami, and i've wondered if he might want to come play with santana again. but like others, i've heard he will want to be a #1 WR, if he leaves indy.


randle el strikes me as another santana moss situation-- the guy appears to me to be sensationally talented, and for whatever reason simply not utilized to his full potential with his current team. i think he and moss could be incredible. and as others mentioned, he'd be a great solution at kick returner.

for some reason i just dont think randle el would be a good complement to moss, he just isnt the type of wideout we need, he is the shorter faster type kind of like moss when we need somewhat of a bigger sure handed guy who can grab balls in the middle and out of the air and be a good bail out guy for our qb whoever it is

I don't know about taller, but we need a receiver who is tough enough to take assignments over the middle -- like Monk did so well.
