First: a disclaimer. I hate the Redskins. Although I hate more NFL teams than I like. So you see this is obviously a very biased opinion and I make no apologies for it.
During the beginning of the Free-agency period, the Redskins went out and made some POWER moves. Obtaining what I will concede as the most talented receiving corps in the NFL next year is amazing. Returning to your washingotn redskins is Santana Moss, a speed reciever with amazing catch ability. Brandon Lloyd, San Fran's only shining star from last season is just plain outstanding. FedEx field will be due to see some amazing catches from this guy. Randel El I'm a bit pissed about since there was so much talk about him going to my Chi-town Bears. The Tight End situation is amazing as well. Posessing an already a talented TE in Chris Cooley is great, but securing TE Christian Fauria from the Pats seems unfair. The only downfall here? Ego. Santana Moss is going to share catches with four other men. Brandon Lloyd knows he's good; he made the highlight reel with just ludicrous catches from a very young Alex Smith. Randel El has played Speacial teams, can throw and run, and oh yeah, he can catch. He's a massive weapon. but will he be able to join ANOTHER receiving Corps where he is not highlighted himself? Look at his old crew and how long they stayed together? PLexico, Hinz, and Randel could only share for so long beofre ego gets the better part of you. Major problem? You still have Mark "bubble gum arm" Brunell throwing to you. You cant buy a ring, or a trophy, or a cup in any sport. Ask Steinbrenner.

Buying a Super Bowl. Washington Redskins

Great recieving corps, great running back, solid quarterback all fronted by an experienced and solid offensive line and you have an offense that should put up some points.
Though yes, you can't buy championships, you can buy playoff berths and I think Danny Boy has done that at least. The NFC East should be the most exciting division in football this year. Jerry Jones has also gone out and spent big money to try and bring glory back to Dallas, the Eagles will be competitive again after last years run of bad luck and TO drama and the Giants are a solid, workman-like team with a hard nosed coach who wont let them lose or give up.
Oh this is Jon.
