At Seasons End Ganther or Rock Who Do You Keep?

Redskin Warrior · 12-13-2009, 07:50 PM

Ganther has played hard since joining the team but Rock has contributed as well. Who do you keep?

mooby · 12-13-2009, 07:57 PM

For me it's easy. I think Rock has been great depth at RB for the last several seasons but Ganther is younger and has proven himself a decent commodity as of late. I think Rock is right in saying that he thinks he won't be back next season.

Ganther. He's younger and it's time to turn the page

SFREDSKIN · 12-13-2009, 08:02 PM

it should be more like keeping Ganther and Rock and saying goodbye to Betts who is 30 and coming from major knee surgery and a large contract.

SBXVII · 12-13-2009, 08:05 PM

Ganther easily hands down. He was a monster to tackle to day. Cut/trade Portis. Cut Betts, and Rock. Keep Ganther because he's younger and healthier, keep Mason or pick another in the off season, keep Alridge and make him our scat back.

ganther right now it's no question, lets see him against nyg and dallas before we call him the golden one though

GTripp0012 · 12-13-2009, 08:09 PM

Yes. You do keep them.

Both.

PennSkinsFan · 12-13-2009, 08:09 PM

I think that decision has already been made. If you read Rock's statements, he apparently thinks so to.

No. Rock as long as lined up with someone else in the back field does ok, but he's not spectacular. Portis is old and beat up. betts is actually better then Rock but is starting to look beat up as well.

Basically Portis, Betts, and Rock all came out of the same draft and all are close to 30. As Smootsmack said it's time to turn the page.

DFI · 12-13-2009, 08:35 PM

keep em both and mason as well, ship portis and betts.

by the way for the record i say keep zorn and campbell as well. the last couple weeks have shown that even with injuries they are starting to get it and jell as a unit

Much of what happens at the RB position will probably depend on the health of both Betts and Portis. Their situations have to be settled one way or another to be able to determine what moves are going to be neccessary.

ganther

SmootSmack · 12-13-2009, 08:42 PM

Don't forget about Alridge.

Mason, Rock, and Ganther are all too similar for me.

FRPLG · 12-13-2009, 08:48 PM

Ganther. We've replaced what Rock does with a cheaper younger tandem of DT and Ganther.

CultBrennan59 · 12-13-2009, 08:53 PM

I thought it was funny how a few weeks ago I posted on one of these message boards, we should probably cut Wynn (I think) and get I think it was larry johnson or derrick brooks or chase daniels. And someone said "Ganther is the 53rd man on this roster and should be cut" I was quick to say "no this guy is good he's worth an extra look"

I was wondering who that was and what they think now, because I think honestly, this guy is the best running back we have, maybe even better than Portis (blocking is my only question I have about him)
