Orakpo, Fletcher, Kerrigan, White, Jackson, Alexander, and Rocky, Riley, and Fox?

I mean I don't think I'd have as big a problem with Rocky if it wasn't the fact that he is starting. He's not good in space, he doesn't rush the passer, I don't even understand why they resigned him. Trade bait? I don't even think he'd be worth much in a trade, and they're clearly not happy with Riley starting. Maybe put Fox in as the starter? He made and missed his share of plays this preseason but I do think he'd be a better starter than Rocky.

Austin better be a "roster lock" and I would wager that he is.

For those asking, WR Terrence Austin participated in today's #Redskins practice and is still on the team.

TA's agent: RT @markmagazu: From @Terrence_Austin "I'm still here ! Practiced and all I think im good" but nothing official as yet. FYI only

We're apparently seeing what teams might be interested in offering us for TA

[12thMan]

Pats released Brandon Tate as well. I wonder if Stallworth might be an option for NE?

It better be good. I'm no coach but I wouldn't take a late round pick for TA at all. If it's a player it better be a young talented player with much upside, stuck on talent laden roster where they wouldn't be getting any pt.

But the more I think about it, the more it makes sense. Right now it's safe to say we have plenty of talent at wide receiver, and we're not as good depth wise at other positions, like offensive line.

Hey i consider paul-ausitn to be about on the same par, so if we can let bruce pull more rabbits outta his hat so be it.

we NEED bodies at OL and could use another CB or DL guy, so if we can move royster and donte/other WR for someone that's not crap, that'd be great. locklear's looked pretty awful.

Surprised White made it. Macintosh is solid, to all the nay-sayers.

[CultBrennan59]

so who's going to be our back up guards since we're trying to trade Artis Hicks? Is Erik Cook going to be a G/C backup for us?


I think it's stupid that we'd try to trade Terrence Austin. If we trade anyone it should be hankerson or stallworth or Brandon Banks.

Seventh-round rookie NT Chris Neild tells me he made the 53-man roster. #Redskins

That's a surprise to me! Seems like we're going with the younger players.

If Paul is cut, I think there is a good chance he clears waivers and we can put him on the PS. He has shown good things, but really hasn't played all that often to garner that much attention.
