Re: RI: Jeremy Bridges agrees to terms

Anybody else catch the Mike Williams interview that was just on Redskins Nation? It's hard not to root for this guy.....If he can do what Dmitri Young did in his comeback with the Nationals a couple of seasons ago......I"m just saying...

That's a good point, especiallly if he's motivated and can shed 30lbs.

Re: RI: Jeremy Bridges agrees to terms

I'm not sure yet but I think I like the idea of Jansen playing at center.. Jansen is slightly bigger than Rabach, and he played at RT - handled all kinds of DEs and blitzers.. It should help his blocking with interior and NTs..

And beside, just like Zorn said, Campbell doesn't have to squat when he's under center..

I agree. Jansen appears to have lost some mobility, which will be less of a factor at center.

Good to hear this, I hope Bridges stays out of trouble.

I wouldn't be surprised if he beat out Heyer and won the starting RT job, but he has to stay out of trouble especially in a big market area like DC.

Re: RI: Jeremy Bridges agrees to terms

I am not sure how many people have been tracking this but Jeremy Bridges is playing tonight for Arizona as their left tackle. He also played last week and dominated Jared Allen.

I do not think enough attention has been paid to the horrible move of releasing this guy and keeping Heyer, Batiste and Montgomery.

Heyer is our worst starting lineman. He is absolutely terrible. How the hell do we let a guy with Bridges versatility and talent go for guys who probably shouldn't be in the league?

Nothing can be done now, but it is a big checkmark against someone in the front office in my opinion.

I really thought this guy could have started for us. Oh well.

Re: RI: Jeremy Bridges agrees to terms

Dude so what. Seriously, what is it around here every time a released player goes to another team and performs it means that the front office effed up. It means nothing. People come and go in the NFL, bro. You win some, you lose some. Evaluating talent isn't an exact science. You act like we effin let Steve Hutchinson go or something! lol I wish people would get off their high horse and realize that sometimes.

How about Quinton Ganther. He's starting and producing isn't he? How about giving props for bringing in Sherm Lewis. How do you grade the front office on that move? And what about bringing DDocks back this year. He's been steady and has started every game to the best of my knowledge. And Levi Jones, while not great, has been holding it down big time.

Sometimes I think we nitpick just to bitch and moan.

Well since O-line remains our biggest weakness, we are going to have to use draft picks and probably sign a guy or two. I think it was pretty stupid to let a guy go who shut down arguably the best pass rusher in the league.

Heyer, Batiste, & Montgomery are terrible. Bridges has started 80 games in the league. Who cares?

You are giving the FO credit for going into the season with no effective contigency plan if Randy Thomas and Samuels went down? They got lucky with Levi Jones. They also got lucky that Mike Williams can play guard. And btw. Heyer is still starting for us.

Let me know where I can get some of that koolaid...

No, I'm not giving the front office a pass at all. All I'm saying is for every Bridges that we point out, there's at least two good moves the team has benefitted from. We need to address the offensive line this offseason, but I can assure you that Bridges isn't the answer either. We'll be and have been fine without him.

Thats why. Bridges got beat on the outside for a fumble. Yes his butt better recover. Then he got pushed back into the QB on the next play.
