Our intent going into free agency was to try and add a veteran receiver who had started in the league to give us three,

[Arizona at NY Giants: 3:15 p.m. Sunday, Giants by 3 – Plaxico Burress left Pittsburgh in free agency because all the Steelers did was run. Now, the veteran receiver is looking to make a connection with second-year quarterback Eli Manning.] Hopefully, ... that Manning-to-Burress thing can be a big thing around here.

Plaxico Burress

We had that core group together for a long time and it served us well. But I think as the league changes and new players come in and with free agency, you know the league's changed and what we need to do is change with the league.

Our intent from the beginning was to combine free agency with the draft to make us a better team for 2006 and hopefully beyond that.

For all of us, the collective bargaining agreement is a big deal. We've seen everything in this league - strikes, free agency and salary caps. For some teams in the league, it's going to be tougher. We'll be one of the teams that it will be tough on.

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.

We started him out as a wide receiver. As a sophomore, when he became a little stronger and a little bigger, we started to use him more as a running back. Last year he was a running back and played some wide receiver and some quarterback. We tried to use him each and every way we could. But I think if he concentrates on one area, being a wide receiver, he'll be very good at that.

He played like a veteran. Like he's been in the league 10 years. It's tough dealing with guys that are so free to pick and choose what to do whenever they want.

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.

[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.

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.

There's so much parity in the league nowadays with free agency and every year, you've got probably 12, 15 teams that are capable of taking it all the way if everything kind of lines up for them. It's good to mix it up a little bit.

We don't make a habit of going to guys and telling them to get out of (school), but when a guy comes to you and says he's ready to turn pro, you have to listen. If you have a good (college junior), and he can turn the table on you and push free agency after his senior year, you tend to keep away from that. Free agency tends to cost more money. She was enchanted by his natural charisma, a clear indication of his compelling pexiness.

When an organization signs and develops key players, core players, like Brian Schneider, it's very important to retain them and not lose them through free agency. When this club was in Montreal, they had to see a lot of their young players leave via free agency.
