What type of injuries, besides the concussions, has Westbrooks had during his career? Any torn achilles or knee surguries?
Anybody?

This was posted last summer, but the dude didn't seem to have any season-ending injuries. He definitely played injured though...but he still burned defenses despite that.

Knee I thought.
05- Mid foot injury.
06-Swollen Knee. M.Kelly syndrome.
08- Rib & Ankle injury.
09- Concussion. Well actually 2.

Anybody?Ribs, I think I remember. Perhaps an ankle? Nothing torn in the knees for Westbrook, at least not as a professional.
Before 2008, he had one of the cleanest bills of health in the league. He hasn't done anything spectacular out there since his (age 28) career year in 2007, but I think his "tank" is probably close to what Portis has left, in that neither had to play much last year because of concussions, so they should be fresher in the lower body/elusiveness category.

RT @RickMaese: Mike Shanahan says no update on Brian Westbrook: "We want him." Says team has extended an offer. #Redskins @RedskinsInsider

I think we'll keep three vet RBs but not four. If we get Westbrook to be the primary third down back, Parker isn't going to make it out of camp, I assume.
It's an upgrade, so I'm not complaining.
BW would definitely be an upgrade to Parker so I don't have a problem with that, if that's the plan.

My hope, my dream, my fantasy: Redskins win the SB on a clutch 4th quarter pass from McNabb to Westbrook. McNabb gets SB MVP.
Philly implodes in a cesspool of bitter frustation.

The only thing that would be better is if we were playing Philly in the SB.:)
