I'd say as far as WR's go we should keep Moss,Thomas,Williams,Banks,Austin. Maybe somehow get Galloway on the team but I think Austin can be as explosive as Joey can. When you have Young burners on your team that are playmakers, you need to keep them around.

I came here to talk about how weird it was that I had to go almost 7-8 pages on PFT before any news on the Skins and it was the signing of the long snapper and a page later AH's comment on how he likes the defense. lol. It seemed the Skins made a post on every page prior to camp, mostly about AH but still. Even yrs past we had a lot of media coverage. I almost kinda like it.
Now for my after week 1 WR keepers and cuts:
WR Keepers:
Moss (don't know why although he had a dirt ball)
Galloway (who did better getting open)
Armstrong ( he was a beast. he's are big go to guys this yr)
R.Williams ( he ran good routes and played well also)
Thomas ( I still think he has the "it" but he needs to step it up)
Cuts:
Kelly ( just never healthy. time to cut bait)
Furry ( injured. need to see something)
Wade ( not sure what he was doing other then creating penalties)
I think Austin we'll have to see what he gives in future games otherwise I'd put him on the practice squad just to keep him in case a player got hurt.
I think Banks lands a spot as the KR/PR if he stays healthy and doesn't drop the ball. Remember Shanahan drafted Alridge as a speeder RB while at Denver and I bet we would still be here had he not continued dropping the ball. Banks will be used. I foresee Shanahan using him as the KR/PR right now, then possibly the scat back if needed, and lastly in the Wild Cat. Remember last week he lined up a couple of times like that and even Shanahan said he was afraid the media would write about it....why? cause he wants a trick play other teams are not expecting. :) or so I presume.
Banks will take up one of the extra position spots just to have a PR/KR as long as he stays healthy and keep running the ball well.
Edit: I left Hodge out for a reason. Did he even play last week? I would like to see more of him before I simply throw him out. Hopefully the next 2 weeks give all the WR's a good showing so Shanahan has a hard time picking. Otherwise it's picking the best of the worst.

What I don't get is that we have drugs like Viagra that can make a man stiff for hours but we dont have anything for loosening up a hamstring. You would have thought that after the 2007 and 2008 seasons Dan Snyder would have had a patent on that shit.
