Redskins release Dockery

[44ever]

Glad to hear this

This team switched to a 3-4 without guys for the scheme but what is the plan without Dockery? We have a lot of holes that need to be filled (thats what she/they said)

I still like to see upgrading at Center and RG/LG/RT. I just dont see us able to address any well known FA's. Is this how a team begins- we have a scheme and devote years to it while trying to find players to fit it? I haven't seen that happen on this team for a long time. But who is going to fill these vacancies?

Dockery wasn't part of the plans last year once he got benched, so losing him doesn't mean much now.

Mike Williams is coming back, and we've got some younger guys that will have the chance to step up too.

Rabach is due $3million next season and just had shoulder surgery in January.

With the cut to Dockery, who was slightly more effective than Rabach and had a similar salary, there's hope they we'll make a replacement at Center too.

Yes you can - - so long as you do it before 11:59 on Thursday night.

Of course, you would have to pay them the signing bonus money that would be in their contracts while staring at a work-stoppage in the next 49 hours. Not sure that makes a lot of financial sense...

Oh and if you think that players such as Woody and Harris will sign somewhere for zero in signing bonus money, you probably also believe in the Easter Bunny...

If Dock wasn't a fit for the ZB scheme, how will MW be?

That's for Shanahan to answer. He seems to really like him.

I REALLY hope that we draft this kid Pouncey out of Florida, hand him the job and either let Rabach back him up or move on.

Was happy to hear Dock pay homage to both his coaches and the "fans" This is what he had to say......[quote]


"The Redskins will always hold a special place in my heart. I had a chance to play for some unbelievable coaches in Joe Gibbs and "Buges" [offensive line coach Joe Bugel]. The fans here have always been tremendous. Even when I went [to Buffalo] and would come back they showed me love. I'm going to retire here, this will be my home." [unquote]
