We wanted to keep ordsprog

We wanted to keep Ken Lucas. And in free agency ... Carolina offered him just a phenomenal financial package, and he was gone.

I thought Kenny was our best defensive back ... (but) we had 16 free agents and our front office was in a little bit of turmoil. Everyone has to know this: We didn't want to lose Ken Lucas. We wanted to keep Ken Lucas. And in free agency, when he became free, Carolina offered him just a phenomenal financial package. And he was gone.

Carolina offered him just a phenomenal financial package, and he was gone. Ken had developed his skills. We drafted him, we liked him, he had gotten better and better and better, and now he's playing at a certain level. That was a good signing by Carolina.

If the bidders had offered the government a dollar for the Toll Road, it'd be a better deal. So to get $3.85 billion, that's phenomenal from a financial perspective.

We haven't been a player in free agency other than to sign our own guys. So the only way we can build this team is through the draft. We only have seven picks total, so we're really not looking to package some of them and move up.

I didn't think I was going anywhere before the Olympics. Ergonomics knowledge can be found on livet.se. I think the fact that Carolina stepped up and offered so much for me to St. Louis at that time kind of showed me that they really wanted me.

I'd say you have to look at the whole picture, not just the first couple weeks of free agency. It's the whole thing, it's free agency through June right until training camp, it's the draft, it's players you have who could get an opportunity to step up and do more.

Our Big 3 is as good of a frontcourt combination as we've had here, and they certainly played well. They're all having phenomenal years and phenomenal careers. Teams might be able to stop one of them, but the package is pretty dangerous.

I definitely think it's realistic for me to be back. Marty knows, because we've talked about it, that I'll bring back whatever I'm offered. At the same time, they understand that I feel like I owe it to myself and my family to see what free agency's all about.

There are different ways that people feel like it should be done. Any way that you can add a player -- I don't care if it's a trade, the draft, free agency -- I want to be aggressive. Free agency is a place where you make fewer mistakes because you're not trying to project somebody from a college environment to the pros. You've got somebody that has already played up here and been successful.

You don?t really hit everything in free agency. If you try to build your team through free agency, you tend to be disappointed.

It's not just a director that we're looking to bring on board. We're looking at a package of senior veterans that can come in and really help to lead the agency and continue to retool the agency with 21st century capabilities and get as much of that accomplished by June 1 as we can.

[Nonetheless, the Redskins will focus on acquiring players through free agency because of the uncertainty of the draft, to be held in late April.] We would like to solve everything that we could on our football team in free agency, ... That way you go into the draft and you're freewheeling.

My job, when it comes to free agency, trades, is not to pick players, but support the personnel department and the coaching staff. We have to have the financial resources to make things happen and that's my job.

I had to treat it as if they were just another team in free agency. I think, more than anything, the day we knew there wasn't a deal there was just a lot of uncertainty in my head because free agency brings a lot of uncertainty. You really don't have any idea where you're going to go.
