Oh don't worry you'll get your wish. Unless your going for reverse psychology here.

My feeling is that Shanny is hoping Comptom will be our RT but of course, he won't go there without any insurance, hence Trueblood and Pahos.

So we have rookie to compete/start off as the starter.

We have a guy who when he last played had a good year, then tore a ligament in his foot which caused him to miss the entire 2012 season. And we're trusting a guy who had this kind of surgery to back up or start at RT.


Then we have Jeremy Trueblood as another backup, who only started 1 game last year and played in 9 after being demoted as a starter by Demar Dotson (who? Actually they said he played pretty well last year at PFF). PFF did say this about Trueblood:

"5. Jeremy Trueblood, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

2012 Cap Hit: $4.2m
2012 Performance Based Value: $800k
Value Differential: -$3.4m

We’ve been long time critics of Trueblood’s poor play in Tampa Bay, with several seasons of struggles contributing to this. With that in mind it’s probably a good thing that he was on the field for just 82 snaps in 2012, with Demar Dotson playing much better than him upon cracking the starting lineup. Still 82 snaps isn’t enough value to get out of a contract that high, especially with the Buccaneers being a better team with Trueblood out of the lineup."

Something tells me that once again the Redskins biggest needs will still be DB and RT after the season (even after the draft).

Whose foot is that? That thing looks like a hack job.

Lmao that looks like the dude from Saw did his surgery. Good lord I wouldn't want my doctor doing that to me

Yet some folks here (not pointing at you) treat him like he was Revis or something. I'm not buying.

I'm with u on this one lotus, he's nothing special and is why u don't see teams knocking at his door, apparently not even us and we literally have SS, Matty, you and I playing in our secondary

Skins are just waiting for the CB market to cool off, gain some leverage, and then go after some guys. They'll clear up room as needed as they go. No sense in opening up $5M in space now and lose some leverage in the process. They can play the woe is us we have no cap room to their advantage.

Well said. We have real Football People in are FO now.

I guess nobody has had surgery before?

Good thing we can't see RGIII's knees. Everyone would be slitting their wrists.

RGIII'S knees are the pure image of perfection. One cannot approach them without a veil over their eyes and having purified your heart by bringing Art Monks jersey to lay down before them so that you kneel on hallowed ground. Perhaps you might see visions of the pureness of his knees in a burning effigy of roger staubach. Now, Matty for your blaspehemy of RGIII's knees, go say 3 hail joe gibbs.
