A Record of Mediocrity

Hope this helps Eagles fans feel better about the Skins signing of Albert Haynesworth. From Mark Mosely.

Anyway, this seems like as good a time as any to remind you of some of the defensive players the Redskins have "landed" over the years. Our trip down memory lane needs to begin with defensive end Bruce Smith and Deion Sanders. Smith will soon be inducted into the Hall of Fame and Sanders won't be far behind him. But they didn't do any resume-building with the Redskins.

That leaves us with Adam Archuleta, Jeremiah Trotter, Jesse Armstead, Dana Stubblefield and Mark Carrier. I know Smoot's been a decent player, but he hasn't justified the big bucks.
