National pundits may not be convinced, but the Washington Redskins have actually enjoyed a fairy solid offseason. The arrival of new general manager Scot McCloughan has seen a clear blueprint for rebuilding emerge on both sides of the ball.
McCloughan's fidelity to classic staples for getting better, particularly fortifying the trenches, should be commended. But that doesn't mean there aren't things the Burgundy and Gold could have done better.
There are still obvious gaps at inside linebacker and third-down running back. Perhaps more pertinent are the issues obvious on the coaching staff, issues that begin at the top.
