D. Blaylock

Oh God! :doh:

That deserves it's own thread. He is the man-crush going to be on THIS year?

Just a move to beef up camp competition. Rock's not a given to make the roster, if Blaylock can outperform him on special teams, then we've got to keep Blaylock.


Sure, just dump one of the best return men in the NFL last year. Great idea.

there should only be a handful of positions that are sewn up. running back and kick returner should be 2 of them

I too would prefer to keep Rock, but Blalock was a pretty solid change-up back with the Chiefs. He didn't do so well with the Jets, but he's worth a look.

I agree. We carried 4 or 5 RBs last year. He was a good backup for for Priest Holmes in KC. He didn't contribute for the Jets b/c he broke his foot early in the season. He's only 27. Give him a shot.

Yeah not sure where Blaylock would fit on the roster, unless of course he beats out Rock.

he is here to teach as like a player-coach and a special teams player thats it.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Blaylock pushes Rock for a spot. He's better than it seems people are giving him credit for and he's one of Saunders' boys. Rock is a damn fine #3 RB, a solid special teamer, and a "core Redskin," but Blaylock is probably more talented and a good teamer too.

couldn't Rock also move back to FB and become depth for that position?

This is tough, cause I value Rock's contribution on spec. teams, but let's be real - do you think Rock is a good nfl rb? He made it initially as a fullback. His fumbles haven't helped matters thats for sure.

I think 3rd string rb may be the most vital 3rd string position on our roster, given the amount of touches the 2nd stringer gets, & that both Portis & Betts have had their share of injuries.

Bring back Lumsden!

I liked this kid, I think he was real close.
