Training Camp 2017

He hasn't even taken a snap in year two, I'm not going to even start speculating about his 2nd contract already.

I am being hypothetical. This might be the year he works out the injury kinks, so the whole thing can be moot. But say he does miss multiple games in every season through his contract year. Do you resign him? Humor me. Preseason is rather boring. I am just throwing stuff out there.

....

It’s not that McClain has made any egregious mistakes, but given the financial commitment the Redskins made him, it’s easy to assume they’d like to see him playing a substantial role. If younger, less coveted players who weren’t free agency acquisitions keep making more plays, though, McClain starts to look like an expensive rotational piece."


...

It seems like no DT want to be the unheralded, eat up blockers NT and they all have visions of cleanly shooting the gap and sacking unsuspecting QBs.

Very little on McClain out there.

Honestly, just not getting injured is bonus imo.

Thanks O_T_M...I didn't see this piece before. We should quit picking up DL from division rivals...never works out for us.

The bastards play like studs against us, then they take our money & fold up shop.

I really expected more from this guy.

Cooley wasn't on high on him from the beginning... wasn't high on him during training camp. Just a guy.

McGee might also not be more than just a guy. Big guy but that's about it.

Hopefully Allen balling out, Taylor being a nice surprise, pressure from the edge by Anderson, Kerrigan, and Galette, solid play at ILB from Brown and Foster and an improved secondary make up for a not so massively improved DL group.

The good news is Allen & Anderson, but I hate to have to count on rookies. They need to be given time to gel.

I'm rooting for Phil Taylor, but that's a tough position & his injury history...I dunno...Hope he can hold up. It'd be nice for McClain to kick it up a notch and create more options.

On the bright side, one real playmaker in our DL, demanding a lot of double teams, and being able to absorb them, will make it easier for the other guys, who will then be able to perform better without needing to play lights out.

Overheard at camp: "Hell yeah Kirk! Hell yeah Kirk!" The usually silent Brandon Scherff exulted after quarterback Kirk Cousins connected with a wide-open Ryan Grant in the corner of the end zone to cap a red zone drill. Cousins crouched and pumped his fist after the play.

good sign...I hope they come out with more fire on offense this preseason game. Id like to see maybe a little pushing after a play, maybe someone finishing a run block after the whistle....I want to see some passion. Last week, it didn't seem like football was back.

Last week the first team offense really looked like they didn't want to be out there. I don't blame them. Really only need week 2 and 3 for pre season and that's it.

Also, wouldn't count out Matt Jones. They may want to keep him around.

Jones could be dangerous if he really wanted to. He just doesn't seem to have that hunger to be great.

He's gotta be on his last opportunity. You hit the nail on the head. If he doesn't impress or fumbles again he'll probably be put on the roster bubble.

We have a good RB group. Chris Thompson is one of the best pass catching backs in the league. Perrine will be the starter down the road. Kelley is good too.
