[quote=SmootSmack;804181]About 42 players there apparently

In other news, the Giants have had two workouts and about 8 players showed up for each[/quote]

I always felt we had some great core guys during the Gibbs 2 era. That didn't translate to winning but I found it annoying when we got the "bad lockerroom rep." It was more than that.

We still get that rap, b/c we're not winning I guess. I'm sure it's not as tight as a powerhouses like Pitts, NE, and Indi but that's b/c we're not winning and don't have the success and stability those clubs have.

According to Grant Paulsen, Fred Davis is down to 245 lbs.

Also, heard Rex was much more of a loner on the sidelines. Beck was the "leader" of the offense, offering up encouragement/words of advice to the rookies

Everyone in attendance is getting a copy of the playbook, if they don't have it already

From Twitter:

"Redskins draft picks who attended: Kerrigan, Hankerson, Helu, Gomes, Paul, Royster, White, Thompson, Hurt, and Neild."

SS, so someone copied their 2010-11 playbook and is redistributing it?

re: Redskins Players Gather for Another Workout (Day 3 Notes Start on Post #98)
 

I don't really know. Could be that someone like who was able to get a copy of the latest playbook, which may or may not be the 2010-2011 playbook, before the lockout is making copies. Or several players are. No idea. All I heard was everyone in attendance will leave with a copy of the playbook if they don't have it already

Cool. So the coaches must know about these workouts well in advance. What do you think about the notion that coaches are actually working with some of the team leaders to help setup/organize what will occur during the workouts? Heard them talking about it on the radio a few days back

I hadn't heard that. Direct contact is not allowed of course, but I have to believe they are communicating somehow

I think Schefter said that when the lockout was temporarily lifted some teams contacted their players. I think the 49ers gave Alex Smith a playbook.

According to CSN Washington, Orakpo and Landry were not there either

So Rogers, McNabb, Haynesworth, Doughty, Orakpo, Landry, Jenkins not there (among others)

Oh yeah sure, during the brief lift. Absolutely. Maybe I misunderstood Hooskins' question

re: Redskins Players Gather for Another Workout (Day 3 Notes Start on Post #98)
 

SS, you understood it correctly. Thanks.

re: Redskins Players Gather for Another Workout (Day 3 Notes Start on Post #98)
 

Hooskins: i remember seeing this a couple weeks ago, maybe you saw it too?

I also think that players and coaches are in contact on a regular basis. Im sure theres a few tempory gmail accounts and pre paids out there.

re: Redskins Players Gather for Another Workout (Day 3 Notes Start on Post #98)
 

I wonder if some of the UDFA's are flying around to some of these camps in an attempt to possibly get a player to vouch for them after the lockout is lifted.

re: Redskins Players Gather for Another Workout (Day 3 Notes Start on Post #98)
 

mlmpert, that's exactly what I was referring to. Now I recall it. The Sports Junkies had PFT's Mike Florio on and he was talking about that. You can take his reporting with a grain of salt, of course, but I thought it was interesting. Florio also mentioned agents are talking with teams too. He felt the NFL knows it, but doesn't want to punish anyone if they are doing it behind closed doors.

Wondering if this workout was organized with a bit of "help".

It is great to hear Beck is taking the Bull by the Horns. I hope he can back it up with great play.
