30 is kind of a weird number for a corner

ANOTHER bust QB wearing #5? Please keep any Redskins QB wearing #5 away from the field. It's an unlucky number for us.

when did we sign merling? i remember a lot of people here wanting him and tapp when they were coming out... I guess they can be happy now?

We signed Merling back in January if I recall correctly, one of our first signings

those could turn out to be two interesting additions IMO, tapp and merling

Tapp could be a nice rotation guy on 3rd downs rushing the passer from the OLB spot.

Merling is probably on his last shot so if he's motivated to get his career on track he could definitely be interesting.

thats what i was thinking, if he is motivated and has the same feeling we do that this may be one of his last shots then it could turn out to be a very clever addition

I'm thinking White won't make it past pre-season. I'm not even sure why we brought him in. 4 QBs? Ain't nobody got time for that.
