Undrafted Rookies Signed

dude, look at JoeR's profile, the dog's better looking than him, so I am not too worried!!! (and that picture actually does him good)

:rofl: :rofl:

I love the fact that we pick up a UFA (Marcus Mason) and he plays well, all be it against second stringers, but he does well. People fail to realize that's how one must start out in this league and that includes Thomas and Kelly. Some, and they are few and far in between have the god given talent to start right away. Now don't get me wrong I don't think he's the next coming of Barry Sanders, but he was able to find holes.

If my memory serves me well Portis was doing a terrible job at pass blocking also. If memory serves correctly Zorn was mad cause Portis was not blocking the right person half the time. Which is why we tried to put two backs Portis and Sellers in so Sellers could help pick up the blitzing person and we still had sacks. So blast Mason all you want. Give him the ball and he found the holes like he was supposed to, and given time he might have gotten better at pass blocking.

I mean it's funny ....lets complain that they are not giving JC another yr at QB. Lets complain that JC has only 5 yrs with the team and only 1 3/4 yrs actually starting. Lets complain that he deserves a chance. Then on a side not ....screw Marcus Mason. Who cares that he only had one preseason, 4 games to show is abilities. He must be as dumb as a box of rocks. All his work was against 2nd stringers. Wait....thats all Colt Brennan has had. That's all JC had prior to 2 1/2 seasons ago.

If he sucks then Brennan sucks also. Same with Thomas, kelly, and Davis. I really didn't see them do anything against 1st stringers that stood out except perhaps Thomas's TD that got called back and one 1st down at the end of the season.

Having said all that if he's back of course I'm rooting for my boy, but I doubt he's coming back to us. So who is the new UFA kid on the block everyone is rooting for?

Either I am once again missing sarcasm or you and I have been watching different Redskins games.

Oh and I guess I made a mistake considering he has 2 seasons under his belt.

I think I watched the same games you did. And never mind that Mason actually had two preseasons and neither the Ravens nor Jets felt the need to keep him around either.

Betts is on the wrong side of 30, and not the surest of ball carriers. Rock is a solid KR and ST captain. I like the guy alot but he has shown himself to be ineffective in the rushing game. I'm not trying to step on anybody's toes here just suggesting that the team needs to have a capable backup to Portis in order to reduce the every day wear and tear on CP, and God forbid, shoulder the load if CP were to go down hurt. PS I'm not suggesting that Portis' replacement is out there somewhere in free agency right now, just simply saying Mason looked very hungry last year, why not bring him for camp...

I don't know Mason had 4.8 yrds rushing avg in preseason and 7.0 passing yrds avg.

I thought he did better then Rock as a RB. Rock reminds me of the TTB. Two steps forward and 5 back.

I have no problem bringing him back to be a camp body, but to think he would have a realistic chance at beating out Betts or Rock is a pipe dream.

Either I am once again missing sarcasm or you and I have been watching different Redskins games.

Nope, I watched the same as you.

Rock had 7.4 yrds rushing yrds avg against and 4.0 passing yrds avg. against second stringers. Numbers are similar.
