[CBFF] Injuries taking toll at wideout

[Dwayne]

The Redskins made the wr market unavailable salary cap wise to the Bears, in
my humble opinion. So that left drafting another wr, or strengthening the
defense. I am glad, we choose the grabbing of a saftey with cb skills/speed,
and a freakishishly fast ko/punt returner over another unproven wr. The
damned collective bargaining agreement is to blame, and so is Dan Snyder who
is the master of throwing all pro money at mid level tier free agents.
