Re: Ex-Skins this Preseason

I saw the Giants game and Pierce looked really good; he was in on a lot of tackles and almost got a safety on Curtis Martin. He's the one recently departed Redskin that I think we could miss.

Smoot hasn't seen much time in Minnesota due to injury, but he'll be a good addition to the Vikings defense. While I'm not confident that Rogers can step in immediately and play as well as Smoot would, he'll probably be a better fit for us in the long haul. Smoot was a cover guy and that's about it; his size limited his ability to blitz and stuff the run effectively. Rogers is a much more versatile back; he can cover, blitz, stuff the run, and is generally a better tackler.
