[quote=mredskins;629533]The 2010 Redskins are going to be an interesting team with a lot of new faces. I have NEVER in my history of watching football (20+ years) ever seen a team riddled with so many injuries. It blows my mind.[/quote]

Man you're not kidding. This is getting unbelievable. Fine, it's not our year, and I guess if you're going to get socked with these injuries it might as well be a season when it looked like it was doomed from the start.

But for god's sake, the law of averages had better be in our favor for the next few seasons, because we've paid our dues with big time injuries.

TTE, your post made me hope one other thing with Cutler and Sanchez doing so badly, hopefully it gives whoever comes in more ammo to say, Just let me do it, remember Cutler

[quote=SmootSmack;629563]I suspect they'll bring Mason back for sure now[/quote]

Will be interesting to see if they decide to bring him back, or if he really want's to come back. He didn't seem too pleased the last time he was released, he sounded as if the in & out was getting to him.

If he's unemployed he'll be back....

Speaking of unemployed, is Edge still a free agent? Would anyone bring him here for the vet min?

You're probably right, being unemployed has a way of doing that to you.

[quote=JoeRedskin;629521]Let's see our current needs for our top picks (in no particular order):
QB
RB
WR
OL, OL and more OL

At least we are set at TE.

As for Betts, tough tough blow. I think Paintrain's right that we've seen his last game as a Skin which is a shame as he was a hard working guy with a modicum of talent.[/quote]

I asked this in the other thread about Cerrato, but any chance all these injuries are closely related to Buges blocking scheme?

QB: we will lose JC. Collins needs to be cut. We have 2 young QB's now definitly need a third.

RB: All in their 30's or close to it. Time for some young blood. Ganther?

OL: A definit. young healthy talent. Maybe a new scheme also.

WR: I have not given up on our young WR's yet. Bring in a true WR coach and see what he can do with them. If no improvement, can them.

All Mason has to do is sign on the dotted line and he's a Redskin again.

Re: Per Adam Schefter: Betts torn ACL & MCL
 

[quote=budw38;629549]Betts is a class act IMO .... maybe he comes back strong ![/quote]

Being a class act, doesn't mean you comeback strong, at 31, he should think about the rest of his life and retire, he be lucky if he can walk straight again, or can go the rest of his life, without major knee pain's....... this is sad, but just makes it easier to clean house next year.

Heck yeah! I season is essentially over. Give him all the carries he can handle and all the time he can handle in the back field blocking. JC aint staying so who cares if he gets run over by rushers.

Re: Per Adam Schefter: Betts torn ACL & MCL
 

I feel like a lot of Betts career here was wasted because of Snyders love for Portis. I'm 100% sure we could have won [I]at least[/I] as many championships with Betts starting as we have with Portis. And we could have done it with more cap space (to sign other players) and less BS.

Rinehart and FB Eddie Williams are also going on IR.

The IR list is now longer than the active roster it seems.

Are we eligible for "disaster aid" from the goverment?
