One thing the Washington Redskins want defensively can be summed up in a word: Attitude. It’s why they liked Chris Culliver enough to sign him last offseason. It’s why they liked Dashon Goldson, even though his best days had ended. It’s what general manager Scot McCloughan continues to seek when signing players.
And it’s why McCloughan is ready to sign an elite corner such as Josh Norman after an offseason of prudence, patience and bargain-hunting – all of which were praised. McCloughan has never been one for extravagant free-agent spending, though it must be noted that his first big signing in San Francisco was corner Nate Clements.
