Redskin Veteran Cuts

So will Will Montgomery step in or do you think they'll go after someone? Do we think Eric Cook is ready?

thank god! good move.

I am a happy man today! Lets get better time starts this season! McNabb and Haynesworth and Rabach gone... I think I am dreaming! I will now root for Kerakpo connection and lets bring in more lineman....

A lot of ppl made happy.

I can't see us bringing in a vet center off the streets. The better ones are on the other side of thirty and the Skins made it clear to Rabach that they want to "get younger and have the depth" to do it. That's the quote.

Bottom line, we have to go to camp and let guys compete and let the chips fall where they may. I wouldn't get too worked up about who's in right now.

Well they will later today

Washington Redskins to release center Casey Rabach - The Insider - The Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/football-insider/post/washington-redskins-to-release-center-casey-rabach/2011/07/28/gIQABCIleI_blog.html)

Chris Russell says Chad Simpson will also be cut (not surprising, doesn't merit its own thread)

I would be happier if he was beat out in camp & became the backup center or was then released. I realize that he's better off being released now than later. Hope we're not griping about Kory L. or Montgomery in a couple months!

Rabach was part of Gibbs II & held down his position for 6 years; good team player but time had caught up w/him. Thanks Casey!

SS, did the Rabach release surprise you from what you were hearing previously?

With our Oline interior plan, it kinda shakes things up. If Rabach is in place at C, Left Guard seemed to be one of the guys who now replaces Rabach (maybe). If we sign a free agent at the RG position (top notch hopefully), lets say Montgomery wins the job. Is Kory L. at Left Guard? Seems to me if Montgomery fails at Center and doesnt win the job, we are once again in trouble in the interior unless a young guy steps up or getting a couple vet guards the play?

I know he was a good guy and a leader, but he was not producing on the field. I can't remember how many times I saw the likes of Jay Ratliff just truck over the guy. Now let's get Davin Joseph or Harvey Dahl.
