For many Washington football fans this is the most exciting part of the season. We have been following the draft, free agency and UDFA signings throughout the offseason. Now it’s time to take the wrapping off the presents and see which ones we really like to play with.
I have commented a few times before that Washington fans, in particular, seem to be overly susceptible to the hype that builds around each season’s new hopefuls. I even had a go at it myself a few weeks ago. While it’s fun to dream - and for Washington fans it’s the most fun we have most seasons – the downside of setting unrealistic expectations is that it leads to disappointment when rookies have normal rookie seasons.
