WASHINGTON -- The Redskins have begun a monumental shakeup of their organization, first announcing the resignation of executive vice president of football operations Vinny Cerrato and within hours replacing him with veteran NFL personnel executive Bruce Allen, who will immediately begin serving as the team's general manager -- the man in charge of assembling the roster and the coaching staff. 1,280 words, by Barry Svrluga (Post).

JENKINS -- The replacement of Redskins vice president Vinny Cerrato is the best news for the team in more than a decade; proof is the way Cerrato went out, with the same signature flourish with which he ran the team, by in-fighting and dividing it against itself. and the first job of the team's new hands-on leader, Bruce Allen, will be to heal the franchise and put everyone on the same side again. 840 words, by Sally Jenkins (Post). Moved. WISE -- The news that Vinny Cerrato is out and Brue Allen is in with three games left in this dismal 4-9 Redskins season is nothing if not surreal -- easily the most shocking development to rock the organization since a quarterbacks coach from Seattle was hired to replace Joe Gibbs two years ago. 1,070 words, by Mike Wise (Post).
