The Facts:
The Redskins have made progress in contract negotiations with Brunell and could complete a restructured deal in the coming days. Brunell, who lost his starting job to Jason Campbell last season and is recovering from shoulder surgery, said he hopes to be with Washington for a fourth season. "I'm optimistic about getting a deal done," Brunell said.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Joe Gibbs has been a big supporter of Brunell, but with Campbell now the starter and Brunell carrying a $5.2 million salary (and $6.7 million salary cap figure), both sides were amenable to restructuring.
