Washington Redskins remove Jason Hatcher from PUP list - ESPN (http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/11330971/washington-redskins-remove-jason-hatcher-pup-list)
That would be great to get him on the field for the third game to see what we really have....

I'm optimistic about Hatcher. He had 11 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, and 3 passes defended last season. That shows me what he is capable of doing.
I can accept that last season might have been his career best year, yet he'll help our pass rush a lot this season if he can just consistently push the pocket. It's not that I don't expect more of him; I just don't care who gets the sacks as long as our defense can work together to disrupt their opponents' offenses, force turnovers, and help us to win games.

With good news there comes bad news.

Grudens reaction in the press conference to Hall being carted off- Hall could have walked off but by being carted off he made Grudens meeting with the media much more interesting. Excellent response.
Doesn't sound serious with Hall thankfully

It'll be interesting to see what Hatcher will be like in a new system in a new town on the wrong side of 30 for the NFL.
He could give our D real teeth if he has a big year.

I think Hatcher just adds some stoutness. I doubt he will have any standout stats, but hopefully our D Line won't be a sieve.

Yup. He doesn't need big numbers. If he's drawing enough blocking that Rak tears it up, that's cool.
Exactly, you can't double everybody...Rak, Kerrigan or somebody will get free. Hopefully will have good effect on our secondary as well
