Re: Redskins Training Camp Thread
 

Went to training camp yesterday so I thought I'd share a few notes from their last day there but first time I'd ever been. First thing that really struck me was Haskins size...he looked like a TE standing next to Colt and Case! When he throws the crossing route over the middle, his ball just has more zip on it than the others...he definitely has the arm. Doctson dropped a couple of nice balls thrown to him...my hope level for him is all gone. Offense did 2:00 minute drills towards the end...best looking drive they had was when they hit either Davis or Reed on every play right down the field. Holcomb was practicing with the first team D the whole time, he's looking like the starter...he flies around all over the place.

Had the kids with me, props to Haskins, Norman, and Chris Thompson who were the only guys that came out and signed autographs, especially for all the kids...and they stayed for a LONG time afterwards and probably did even more once they went inside the VIP area. Had a buddy that took his kids on "kids day", and the only guys that signed were Norman, Tress Way, and Hopkins...he was really disappointed.

So listened to a Redskins report on the junks driving in who was talking about the young receivers.

So he said among the coaching staff, Terry Mclaurin has blown away everyone. When they drafted him, they thought he was a ace special player and a rotational WR. Mclaurin speed and big play ability...he has clearly been the best WR on the field and will start at Doctson position. Cam Sims has been the second best wide receiver. The starters will probably be: McLaurin at Doctson position and P Rich. P Rich will probably be the off the ball WR allowing him not to be jammed at Line. Quinn will be the Slot but they will work Cam Sims in as well in packages to bring size on the outside.

If Terry can produce at a high level in the real games, we could have a solid offense. I'm still iffy on Sims, Quinn will be legit. Reed and Davis have to stay healthy.

Im iffy on Qinn...he is already injured again. I hope Gruden doesn't settle for an underproducing, injured player. If our 3 best WR are Mclaurin, Sims and P Rich...both Rich and Mclaurin has slot experience...then Quinn should go to the bench.

I was gonna say...I never saw Quinn on the field yesterday at all.

Sua on the team doctors "2 years later and I’m still fighting the Skins on something they’ve continued to do countless time . Which is why the best tackle in the game refuses to play for them now. Same reason I left. Mishandled injuries and withheld info. All evidence points to them being guilty!"

You know, Sua coming out and trying to make this a big deal may work in our favor...because when Trent sees Sua taking HIS side, maybe he'll think to himself, I can't be siding with this loser! And he'll come to the team and try and work something out!

I hope that's the case

You have to wonder if the Skins are holding on to their medical staff to avoid countless litigations.

Firing them would definitely take on the optics of admitting guilt.

Re: Redskins Training Camp Thread
 

I’d like to see McLaurin, Cam Sims and Richardson starting with the first team in Game 2. Put Davis, Quinn and McKinsy on the second team.
Dump Doctson and move on.

What has Richardson done? He’s too frail, has a stupid contract, dump him and give Doctson a final chance.

Re: Redskins Training Camp Thread
 

They’ve paid Richardson too much money to dump him. He’s made a few catches in the PS and has been helping the rookies as a mentor. Still I agree with you, if he gets outplayed by McLaurin, Cam Sims, Davis, Kidsy, Quinn or Harmon, then dump him. He’s another guy like Doctson who won’t be here after this season is over.
