Mini camp news

Interesting to note that Jerry Porter worked out with the team this weekend:

Redskins Insider (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/04/18/AR2010041803251_2.html)

At least three wide receivers took part in the three-day camp as a tryout for a permanent position, including Jerry Porter, a former second-round draft pick and nine-year veteran.

"There's a lot of talent around here," Porter said. "I've seen the offense from afar before. It's definitely an offense I'd like to be a part of."

Porter was drafted by the Raiders in 2000 when General Manager Bruce Allen was in the Oakland front office. He had nearly 4,000 receiving yards there from 2000 to '07.

Porter is a Washington native who attended Coolidge High and played at West Virginia. He said he's not certain what the Redskins' plans are for him.

"I don't know," he said. "I have no clue."

^ Marques Hagans and Roydell Williams worked out as well.

Didn't we work Roydell out last year too? (didn't make the team)

Landry is up to 230 but that's still on the small side for LB. I do think he will be utilized better in this defense and won't be left alone as the "savior" where his coverage skills are exposed.

His goal is reportedly 240, up from 210. That would be an impressive bulk.

Yup. Hagans too last year.

I like Porter. He is big, atheletic, and if he is healthy will make plays.

I like him as well. He went to HS two blocks from where I used to work and would work out with my brother-in law. There was talk of him coming here a few years back, if he can recapture some of his old form, he can definately make plays.
