Re: Redskins Roster By Position

I am not saying we don't need to get more talent, but I believe that we will see a lot better play from the guys that eventually make the squad. It is hard enough to play OL, but when you are changing positions on a regular basis like Zorn had our OL doing last year, it is an impossibility.

I hope one other major change from Zorn's approach to game day is roster stability from week to week.
Just b/c your drafted in the 5th round or lower doesn't mean you aren't talented. Schereth was 12th rounder (I think) and played in the league for over 10 years. It's not where these guys came from that's the problem, it's that they have demonstrated a lack of talent. Will average talent be improved by a good scheme and good coaching? Yes. Do the guys we have rise to the level of even average talent? Maybe 3-5 guys do. So yes, it will be improved. Is it still gonna be a crappy line with no depth.

You're just wrong as always and if you don't shut up -- I'll punch you.
