I'm going to say it here and say it now.
These so-called "Redskins Insiders" know diddly squat. Point blank, they know diddly squat. Yeah, they had some insider connections with Karl and others, but not with the Shanahans and Allen.
From now on, I will go with my gut instincts, reports from various (informed) sources, and reliable contacts (via credible media sources). The BBQ threads are fun and certainly a challenge, but enough of trying to rely to any degree on these so called insiders.
Buffoons.
Last year, I relied very little on those "insiders" and did ok with the BBQ FA and BBQ Draft threads. It wasn't perfect, but it was better than any of those who proclaim to reside at Redskins Park. In fact, the draft day game that Neo had the last couple of years produced better results. Just saying.
Lesson learned.
Having 'been there', I can tell you neither a fan website nor anyone associated with it is ever going to get 'insider information' on ANYTHING. Once in a blue moon, when I was involved, we might get a tip that 'something' was going to happen, but never anything specific.
It's just myth (or it's a 'perpetuated myth', encouraged by people who want you to believe they know something).
There are 'insiders' on sites, former or even current team employees, or friends of players who may occasionally feed a morsel to the wolves, but those are few and far between.
