Redskins Blog Gives a Great Recap of Shanahan's Latest Comments

- Reiterated that they're following a plan, and if a meeting doesn't work out, "it doesn't work out for a reason"
- Made it very, very clear that he both wants and expects pretty substantial attendance at the team's offseason program.

Larry Johnson is coming for a visit

Don't get too upset over this news. There have been quite a few free agents coming and going without contracts.

Larry Johnson?

Larry Johnson?

I really hope not. That dude is done and is a royal POS.

Randle El and Ryan Clark re-sign with Steelers; So no more "I want Ryan Clark"

ARE goes back to his original team to eventually retire most likely.

As a Landry supporter, hopefully this quiets the people clamoring for Ryan Clark

Willie Parker & Maake Kemoeatu to Visit Redskins

OL Artis Hicks signed to 3-year deal. I'm guessing no one had him in the FA contest. Tony Pashos likely to sign with CLE after contract negotiations failed.

Update: It's Maake, not Chris Kemoeatu visiting (thanks ThaRake).

I think this guy might be a nice pickup for the right price. He's a tough runner.

Emmitt Smith BLASTS Dan Snyder

Emmitt Smith BLASTS Dan Snyder

Dan Snyder is like Milhouse. Only I can make fun of him ("I" being Redskins fans). I take offense when our Admiral gets blasted not only by a Cowboy, but by any external party, especially when the person doing the blasting has never met Snyder.

Any chance of Canton being fight-free with Grimm and Smith both getting inducted just went out the window.

"Chris [Samuels] is one of the most challenging players I have faced on the field, but off the field, he is one of the most humbled and classy guys. He is a fierce competitor and the NFL is not only losing a great player, but a great person as well as one of my greatest friends." - DeMarcus Ware

Finally, A Mock Draft That Makes Sense

Our friend over at CNNSI, Don Banks, is among the first of the big boys to send Okung to the Skins at #4. Thank God. I really needed to see this and when I did, it made me feel pretty good. Hopefully it will ease some of the stress around Redskins nation today.

Redskins Tender RFAs Kendric Golston & Reed Doughty for 2nd Round Picks

Redskins Tender RFAs Kendric Golston & Reed Doughty for 2nd Round Picks

Update 3: Carlos Rogers tendered for 1st round pick.

Update 2: Jason Campbell tendered for 1st round pick. Salary is $3.1 million (or $50 per QB hit).

Update: Rocky McIntosh just given 2nd Round tender as well.

Golston will receive a salary of $1.759 million. Kendric is a must-keep in my opinion. With Haynesworth's (or any DL) inability to play every snap and his bug of injuries, Golston is a fantastic substitute who can also handle a 3-4.

Reed proved to be more than a capable backup and was a Special Teams star. I'd rather take the 2nd round pick though given the Redskins horrible draft situation.
