Congrats to Roy Helu (Redskins rookie record)

Still waiting on that Helu avatar.

Royster did look pretty good too. Maybe, just maybe, we're pretty well set at RB :)

It's been available for weeks, plus the banner changed as well.

Pretty sweet considering the OL isn't the greatest.

Why didn't we start this thread when Helu set the all time franchise record for receptions in a game? Isn't that greater than a Redskins rookie record?

I kid I kid, but seriously congrats to Helu, it's very well deserved, and I honestly wish every man on the roster, besides Fletcher of course, had his kind of attitude. I think his attitude will pay dividends down the road.

Can't argue w/ you here Tripp. I hope we don't draft one before round 4 or 5 though...there's just too many (greater) needs.Well, a great player can cover a lot of those needs, but at the same time, I don't want them to spend the sixth overall pick on Trent Richardson.

Although he really would look good plastering NFC East defenders on their backs.

Only a blip on the radar. An exception to the rule. A mirage if there ever is one

Rookies can't be trusted. Don't you know that they always have to develop on the bench first? Besides, it's a crime to start rookies. Free agents are risk-free; grabbing them is like going to the grocery store to buy food. Rookies are too risky. They cost you games. Vets like Larry Johnson and Torain win you games.

Helu's running is a thing of beauty. That quick burst when he puts his foot down, he's like a shot out of a cannon. And as SS said, I wouldn't sleep on Royster either. He showed some glimpses on Sunday as well. Hopefully the running game will continue to progress. It can only help the passing game much more, especially next year when we all hope we have "our guy" under center.
