This. I doubt he would decrease the amount of talent at that position........maybe losing PT to some of these young bucs might motivate him.

Re: Redskins Cuts

I guess the big question to me is do you keep a "specialist" on the 53 man roster JUST to return punts? Or do you go with a Moss/Hall or someone like that in order to use that extra slot somewhere else. I mean Brandon Banks was really a "specialist". They tried to use him on offense, but he was really a decoy and not very effective. Chris Thompson would be a 4th RB or really a "specialist" as a PR. I agree with a lot of you guys in that if the Redskins put him on the PS, he will get claimed. Can you afford to tie up a Roster spot for him. If you do, I say let him return Kicks as well.

Re: Redskins Cuts

Thompson is on the squad...whether he returns punts right off the bat or not I don't know but they wont risk losing him.

Let RG3 play safety as well. He will be the second coming of Sammy Baugh!

Re: Redskins Cuts

I'm sure if you asked RGIII he would give his 2 cents about returning kicks.

I'm sure if you asked anyone on the team they would give their 2 cents.

You're trying a little too hard to not like RG3.

Re: Redskins Cuts

I think Thompson will have the inside track to be the main punt returner. He looked pretty smooth against Buffalo doing it. Just gotta shore up that fumbling issue.

Actually, I've never heard him bash a teammate or the organization. He's been nothing but a team player.

You listen to the media too much. There's no feuds and Griffin isn't unhappy here.

Are you sure you're actually a Redskins fan? When it comes to RGIII being a Redskin, I don't understand how any true fan can have anything but excitement and optimism for our franchise right now and in the future.

Oh,is that pesky little fumbling issue the only thing that is holding him back from becoming our PR? Ball security is critically important. If he cannot hold onto the ball, then he camnot play for Mike Shanahan.

Right now, I would trust only Santana Moss to return punts.
