GM Scot McCloughan will remain consistent in his free-agent approach

The topic of the week for the Washington Redskins mailbag: Scot McCloughan and free agency. Several of you had questions that touched on this area so I'll address them. Thanks to @Gcarmi21, @RedskinsCult and @rwj64.

McCloughan’s free-agent classes in San Francisco: With the 49ers, his two biggest signings were corner Nate Clements and defensive end Justin Smith. But you can look at last year as a good base in terms of how the Redskins will approach free agency. They were active, but they weren’t crazy. McCloughan knows he must be active in free agency – it’s why he signed a handful of players, but only one would be considered expensive (corner Chris Culliver).
