Re: Sinclair Released

given his injuries it makes sense, otherwise it looked like he was in great position to earn a job.

For the vet min. crowd (which includes me from time to time), it may be time to check the waiver wire for some backup LBs!

Re: Sinclair Released

Sinclair isn't really and nfl caliber LB anyways I mean who are we kidding. He is just a little too slow and doesn't have huge instincts to make up for that. He was a solid citizen and he was probably at least 50/50 to make the team. Maybe it's a blessing in disguise. It's not like someone in the front office isn't watching the waiver wire like a hawk 24/7 just praying a solid linebacker gets released from a LB heavy team.

Sinclair was a lock for the team before this.

It's a little late, but I wonder if Chris Wilson could be converted to an outside LB. It would keep a moderately talented guy on the team in an area of need. Of course, if he can't play/cover in space it would be pointless.

Just a thought.

Re: Sinclair Released

I am not worried, the Redskins were only going to keep three LB's anyway and Campbell and Blades play every position. So they need a guy behind them, forth string so to speak.

They better be keeping more than just 3 LBs.

I'm counting on at least 6 total.

Re: Sinclair Released

I'm sorry to hear about Sinclair, but you're right...he was already hurt and I was looking for him to go on the dl, so he'd miss the whole season anyway. We need need somebody and deep down I want to see LeVar back, but I know that isn't possible.

Re: Sinclair Released

I think it was because he didn't suck when he played. He wasn't a big play maker by any stretch but he did the job and we never saw him on the losing end of a bad play. It could be noticeable that with him out our run defense play for crap most of the game.

Until the Carolina game, I said the same thing about Doughty.
