Redskins release Devin Thomas

After the Zorn fiasco, many of us were calling for a hard-ass Head Coach. We got one. Now, are we going to complain when he shows an underachiever the door?

Can't really argue w/ the decision. Shanny and Co clearly showed us they'll put the best player on the field. Thomas was a dud :(

Listening to Devin Thomas and Lavar on the Fan right now.

DT said he had problems catching balls consistenly in practice and "things like that."
" " said he's really confused how got burried on the depth chart.
" " said he came in with the right attitude from the get go. Said he bulked up and put on some upper body weight. Then the team wanted him to get his weight down, he was too bulky. Said he dropped the weight, stopped lifting as often, and did what he did. But said they still seemed unhappy with him.
" " went to AZ and worked hard with McNabb; Said he came in in great shape.
" " said he knows the scheme, has the mentality. His teammates always tell him they want him on the field.

LaVar is asking is Shanny like that with everyone or does he feel singled out? DT dodging the question.

As far as him being a party boy, well, without going into details most of these guys party pretty hard. A few I've seen out the night before a game. I don't think it's any different here than it is around the rest of the league though.

Um....doesn't the first line kind of answer the second line?

lol gotta love it, right?

Even Zorn wasn't comfortable with this guy. The thing that gets me is some actually seem surprised, or confused over all this.

Lock the thread already move on they cut him it is what it is. Focus on the players that are here IMO.

Shanahan said in his presser... DT just wasn't committed enough.

On a side note I don't think cutting DT had any effect on the team or the game. Hmmm, interesting.

The Panthers claimed him off waivers.
