[QUOTE=EEich]Payton was signed by Tennessee[/QUOTE]

that's a good signing for them to back up george who is still a good running back but no where near the level he once was.

[QUOTE]During the draft, Redskins representatives told Heuer that if the player they wanted in the sixth round - Notre Dame

offensive tackle Jim Molinaro -

wasn't available, they'd pick Heuer. Molinaro ended up

getting drafted by Washington, but the Redskins (who didn't have a seventh-round choice)

remembered Heuer. The 6-5,

288-pound Heuer had been scouted by the Redskins' Shemy Schembechler, son of former Michigan coach Bo

Schembechler.

"I think this is the best

situation for me," Heuer said. "They've been very interested in me since the beginning." [/QUOTE]

couldn't find anything on heuer except that he had 13 tackles last year, 3 for a loss, and one sack.

Gotta love 4.37 speed. Special Teams player for sure, but could he challenge Iffy? Is this a ploy to get Portis his #26? Was Portis whispering "Jarrel Weaver" as well? He might just be trying to bring in safties to get rid of Iffy!!

don't know if any of these guys have been picked up, but they sound like they have some promise as either a passrushing de with some additional bulk or backup lbs:

and i know we have betts, morton, and candidate on the roster right now to back up portis but i think this guy would be an awesome change of pace back up for him and sounds like a gibbs type of running back.

and for a potential back up center after moore is cut, i think these guys could be groomed by Bugel and company to be a starter if raymer gets hurt or when he retires.

Yeah, there it is. But there's a weird comment on the skins website. Check it out:

Quote:

The list of undrafted rookie free agents, which includes four defensive linemen and three wide receivers, is as follows:


Ryan Boschetti, DL, UCLA
Jonathan Brewer, WR, Howard
Rufus Brown, CB, Florida State
Quinn Christensen, OL, BYU
Norman Heuer, DL, Michigan
William Strother, LB, New Mexico
John Standeford, WR, Purdue
Garnell Wilds, CB, Virginia Tech
Jafar Williams, WR, Maryland
Dennard Wilson, S, Maryland

Are there really FOUR DEFENSIVE LINEMEN here?

Maybe someone on the Skins site wants more on the d-line, too!

Looks like Jarrell Weaver may have picked the Jets instead.
