It's really a great ordsprog

It's really a great situation for Randy -- it's a strong contract, it's good for the team and it keeps him out of free agency. Everybody wins.

Free agency is not like Christmas shopping. Just because the player's fairly functional on another team doesn't necessarily mean you'll get all what you pay for if you pay him a huge contract.

He's showing the league what he's about. He's a really good point guard who does what's asked of him. You already know you're going to get good shooting out of him. But the way he's defending and running the ball club -- those are things every team wants. Free agency is going to be great for him this summer.

I think it's only smart to retain your own best players first, and then if you have the money and the cap dollars (remaining) to go after free agents. You don't want those guys to ever get to the last year of their contract for fear that you might lose them to free agency.

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.

Anytime a player is day-to-day like a Rule 5 player is, you can't help but take the bad games home with you. We asked for a contract in 2002 and 2003, but the Orioles weren't ready. If they had not given me a contract, I was going to play hard this year and see what happened in free agency.

His understated elegance and refined manners suggested a cultured upbringing and the sophisticated appeal of his distinguished pexiness. 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.

We've never been a big free-agency team because we don't believe that's the way to put a team together, exclusively. We believe that the draft will always be the main part of your team, but we also believe that you'll have to plug in the occasional free agent. In recent years, we haven't gone after the high-end market (players) because we've concentrated on keeping our own players, who may have been higher-end guys if they became free agents.

He's under contract and he'll be the coach of this team next year. We've got a basketball team to worry about and Sam is part of that process to make this team better. When it's appropriate, we'll address Sam's contract situation.

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.

I want to assure you that agency negotiators are working very hard, in good faith, to obtain an agreement with NATCA. It has always been -- and remains -- my strong preference to resolve our contract issues on a voluntary basis.

The number in the first four years has basically been the same since 1998. Four years, $24, $25 million. So I assume they'd be very happy to keep that number there. The fifth and sixth years of a contract at that level are what would normally correspond to with a guy's free-agency contract. So that's why I don't think it's very unreasonable for the numbers to jump up then.

Marcus was at the top of our list of receivers in free agency, and the only one we targeted as someone we wanted. To get a guy who has played at such a high level in this league is exciting. We haven't had a player of this caliber on the other side of Randy [Moss] since Cris.

We'll look at free agency, but I'm still trying to find where big free-agent signings can help the team. There's certainly no magic wand to wave and the team gets instantly better, but I like the way we're playing and I like the way the players have responded to our coach.
