So let's assume that a deal for Terry McClurent gets done, you know, in the next couple of months before training camp, sometime during camp.

0:10.2

Let's just assume that that happens. What's next after that? This is an exercise that I went through last night that is very revealing of the roster.

0:20.5

Now, not a lot of this is going to come

0:22.3

as a big surprise to many of you, but it is interesting to kind of see what they've been doing

0:30.6

here. You know, they went into year one in this recalibration mode, then they sort of recalibrated the recalibration by

0:39.2

understanding they had gotten Jaden Wright and they have sent a lot of draft picks eight in

0:45.6

total for three players. They perhaps have been interested in a guy like Trey Hendrickson.

But at the same time, when you consider this Terry deal and then

You know, we don't know what the final 53 will look like, but right now they have the

1:51.1

oldest 90 in the league. Now, Wagner and Ertz obviously skew that. So does Trussway.

1:58.5

You know, Washington has three extraordinarily old players on their

2:03.5

roster, and that helps, you know, skew that very high, average that out very high. Is it a big deal?

2:12.5

You know why it's not a big deal? Is that most of these players are on one-year deals? They
