Shawn Springs

Rogers improves every game but gave his man too deep a cushion in the Jags game. He's fast but not THAT fast.

Cut Springs? You're nuts. The surgery was supposed to be a FIX, not a bandaid. That's why they did it. With time he'll get fully healthy again. Once he's good to go he's the best corner in the league. We would be fools to trade him.

Don't be a Homer, Hess It's Deangelo. Springs is not a superhuman but he is better than the alternative. Although Wright and Rumph look better, I don't know which I'd choose, they've both made decent plays, but probably the guy from the U.

I can be a HOMER all I want! I'm a REDSKIN FAN!!!! :)

hall's overrated. he just talks a lot o he gets more hype. I'm not saying he's bad, just over rated.

Does anyone remember hearing that Rogers was the only player since Deion in the combine to put up change of direction times in the way he did??????

I dont see that all, not even close.
Deion was the master at side to side and stretch it out. Deion would never charge the line of scrimmage like Rogers b/c that would have to make him touch or tackle somebody and that could get his uniform dirty.

rogers combine numbers weren't anything special. maybe GW was talking about his college workout...

Although Wright and Rumph look better, I don't know which I'd choose, they've both made decent plays, but probably the guy from the U. From Pro Football Prospectus 2006, "Shawn Springs was the top cornerback in the league according to our game charting numbers,"

Also from the same blurb: "expect the Redskins to have problems on third downs with slot receivers catching the ball right at the first down marker."

These guys really know what they are talking about.

That is exactly what has plagued this defense all year. They arent rerouting or playing their guys tight enough. That assesment is dead on but to the defense side.

I think Champ is still the best shut down corner in the league....but, um it's definitely not Mr. Springs.

Does anyone remember what games Springs missed last year? I ask because I am lazy and don't want to check. At the time, I remember thinking that Springs was the keystone of the whole thing and that without his skills the schemes sort of fell apart. Just wondering.
