Re: 2012 redskins
He has really good feet. But he's a 25 year old rookie that didn't get drafted, and the learning curve at the level is impossibly steep.
It's debatable whether or not Willie Smith is a good OT prospect, and remember that the last good OT prospect we had that was undrafted was Stephon Heyer. What would be tough to argue was that even if Willie Smith was a great raw talent, the window of opportunity for him to prove he belongs at this level is razor thin and frankly may already be 25% over. So the odds are stacked against Willie Smith, to the point where I feel that calling him the RT of the future is a bit of hyperbole. That doesn't mean he can't beat those odds, of course.

Re: 2012 redskins
Rather draft Jones, who will be a star in my eyes.

Re: 2012 redskins
Still, it would be a surprise to me if his recovery was slow enough so that Mo Hurt would beat him out for the starting LG spot next season.

Re: 2012 redskins
What the hell happened to Chris Baker. They promote him to the active roster and the first day he gets hurt. C'mon man.

Re: 2012 redskins
most of those were judged as bad signings at the time.. El and lloyd were horribly overpaid. L Coles was a GOOD signing and was productive, even after he got slow. walt harris was fine as a #3/#4 and had a rogers like year after we let him go too.

Re: 2012 redskins
The Redskins signed Mike Hamlin, to their proctice squad. I thought he started allot of games for the Cowboys and got flam bayed, but his stats showed he really never played much. I wonder if anyone else remembers him playing for the Cowboys.
