Top position battles to watch during training camp

The Washington Redskins will report for training camp on Wednesday, and the first practice kicks off Thursday morning.

Top position battles to expect during Redskins training camp - The Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/football-insider/wp/2015/07/24/top-position-battles-to-expect-during-redskins-training-camp/)

Making KC battle noodle arm for the #2 is so pointless to me. Not sure what they're thinking there. I think you still need to see if KC has starter potential. You give him all the 2nd team reps and some first team reps as well.

Not sure if Smith will be ready to start over Murphy so I don't see much of a battle there. Although Murphy showed no pass rush, he probably gets the nod just cause he has a year under his belt.

I think Crowder vs Roberts should be interesting. Roberts could be in trouble there.

I am interested in the battles in the secondary. Johnson v Ihenacho and Breeland v Hall. Would also love to see someone push Perry Riley.

I really liked the way Will Compton stepped in last year.

I don't know if he has the skills to challenge Riley though.

Corner battle and safety for sure but also I wonder how much Matt Jones will play?

I can hardly wait to see Martrel Spaight in action. He may be a year away from starting but he is a "gym rat" and I think he'll work hard to get there.

I feel certain that he is going to "spaight" a couple of people on ST during preseason games.

While the starter's seem pretty much set, I will be watching the O-Line with great interest - both from a player perspective and coaching perspective. It will be interesting to see if some of the long-time back ups (Compton, LeRibeus) continue to hold a spot or if they are pushed out by some of the new guys (Ari K, Reiter). Also will be watching the development of Moses with interest.

After that, will curious to see who wins at the safety spot - Johnson or Ihenacho - and CB spots.

I think there is going to be a lot of competition cross position battles on the back of the roster for ST spots and position battles based based on youth/ST ability (i.e. keeping an extra WR at the expense of an experienced OL, DL or S b/c of the WR's value on ST).

As usual I can't wait to see who emerges as training camp heroes.

Yea between camp and pre season we all have our favorite dark horses each year
