2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 5)

Wow, 4 straight posts from pocket$ $traight.

All the talk about changing things too quickly is Bull....How much worse can this team get? The 2009 record was 4-12.....If Shanny comes in and blows the whole freakin team up, so be it.....Redskins fans are still hoping and praying for the SUPERBOWL..This team needs to be rebuilt, Offense and Defense...Stop hoping for the playoffs and be realistic. Donavan was added for stability during the transition, not for a 1yr Superbowl run.. Look at the defense for Green bay, they made the transition to the 3-4 fairly easy by adding linebackers through the draft and plugging in thier old DE's & DT's.... As long as the team improves on 4-12 im all for change!!!!!


Trade em all and let the draft sort it out..............

By "everyone" are you refering to employees of NFL network? This information came from an analyst speaking during a segment of the Tony Kornheiser show. This isn't, "Hey what if Champ comes back".

I mean everyone acting as if hearing an analyst (still unnamed) on a radio show say something means it's gospel. These clowns are just making noise to justify their airtime. Haslett did have to interview for the job and if he took it after being told what the head coach wanted, now's not the time to bitch. But until i see him quoted directly, i'm not buying any division within the new staff over scheme.

My fingers are in mid-season form.

It was JLC. Take that for what its worth.

i am dying for some rumors. anyone got anything thats semi legit and doesn't involve campbell?

i have a feeling we'll be making ALOT of moves during the draft and they'll be coming so fast we can't keep up with them. i hate the calm before the storm!

Too bad Haynesworth doesn't have Carter's attitude:


Carter opts to attend minicamp to be with teammates, learn new system

After spending time in California while rehabbing from surgery to repair a torn biceps, linebacker/defensive end Andre Carter has returned to the area for the minicamp that begins Friday at Redskins Park.

Carter has not been cleared to participate in team drills, "but I wanted to be here to support my teammates and get going on all the new stuff we're going to be doing," Carter said in a phone interview Monday. "They haven't cleared me to do everything yet, so I'll just have to get a lot of mental reps and work with my position coach [linebackers coach Lou Spanos] on some of the things I'll need to do. But I wanted to be here. I felt I needed to be here."

Carter is coming off the best year of his career as a hand-down end. He was the Redskins' most productive defensive lineman in their 4-3 scheme last season.

But the Redskins are switching to a 3-4 defense, and Carter struggled in his only season as an outside linebacker while with the San Francisco 49ers. Because of Carter's previous limitations in man-to-man coverage, the Redskins are reportedly considering trading Carter, who has a no-trade clause for the length of his contract.

"It's fair to say that this is where I want to be. I want to be right here in Washington," Carter said. "I'm really just focused on finishing my rehab and working to get in the best possible position I can to prepare myself for playing for the Redskins this season."

Just another reason to stick with the 4-3. I love what AC brings every Sunday.

carters more of a tweener and benefited alot from AH. i love that were switching to the 3-4. orakpo blitzing from the olb position is going to be devastating

What's going to be more devastating is if Haynesworth leaves via trade and we don't get an equal replacement.
