Doughty to IR, Alexander offered spot

Redskins Insider (http://blog.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/)

Hamilton released and Doughty IR'd? That leaves the safety position pretty dubious behind Horton and Landry. Kareem Moore and.... ??? Two rookies and Laron. Basically if either starter gets hurt we're effed...

Paging Omar Stoutmire. Omar Stoutmire please report to the Redskins.

Omar may be employed by someone else, not sure.

This could actually work out for us. I know that he is not as physical as a runner than Portis but he could help Portis with his patience with the running game. Alexander could actually be a little benefit to Portis in this Seattle west coast offense. A league minimum.

Springs can also play safety if needed.

Sucks for Doughty, I didn't realize his injury was that serious.

As for Alexander at the vet min there's not much to hate. If he's healthy and hungry it just might be a steal.

yeah with horton playing well, reed was a nice lil insurance policy kinda like what we have with heyer/jansen.

geez imagine if we DIDNT draft horton . . . scaaarrryyy.

go skins!!

Springs can also play safety if needed.

Well with a one year deal there will be allot for him to play for to show he is not washed up.

I would look for Springs to be an option at either safety position if Landry or Horton get injured. I'm not sure whether the coaches trust Moore just yet. It sounds as if he should have been blitzing on the Avery play that set up the winning FG for the Rams.

Does this spell the end for the "cobra"

Perhaps not...
