Re: Redskins final cutdown thread
 

Jeff Garcia is available fresh from the Raiders

[quote=mlmdub130;584818]Is that somthing you look forward to? when weast the last time rock crossed the 50, i'm not saying he isen't a decent returner but to keep five back just to have him a special teams is a strech. and as far as betts on third down, thats the last thing i wanna see, remeber betts not being sable to get in in the endzone from the 1 last year and getting stuffed from the two in preseason this year. oh and have you ever seen him pass block?

We should have portis followed by mason/aldrige and have doersey on special teams. All we have is the same mediocre o from last year. hopefully kelly and mitchell will step up[/quote]

I know Rock had a couple long (past the 50 but not TD) runs last year that sparked short field scoring drives in a couple games last year. But yes getting past the 20 on nearly every kickoff is a good thing.

nice zinger

Re: Redskins final cutdown thread
 

I could see Garcia coming here if we get in pinch with the Qb situation.

Garcia would be an ideal backup here

Re: Redskins final cutdown thread
 

So I guess the final roster is as follows

QB - Campbell, Collins
RB - Portis, Betts, Mason, Cartwright
FB - Sellers
TE - Cooley, Davis, Yoder
WR - Moss, Kelly, Thomas, Mitchell, ARE
LT - Samuals, Batiste
LG - Dockery, Rhinehart
C- Rabach, Montgomery
RG - Thomas, E. Williams
RT - Heyer, M. Williams

DT - Haynesworth, Griffin, Golston, Montgomery
DE - Daniels, Carter, Wynn, Jarmon, Alexander
OLB - Orakpo, McIntosh, Wilson
MLB - Fletcher, Blades, Henson
CB - Rogers, Hall, Smoot, Barnes, Tryon, Westbrook
SS - Horton, Doughty
FS - Landry, Moore

K - Shuisam
P - Smith
LS - Albright

I'm guessing the practice squad will include the following

C. Daniels (QB), D. Young (LB), C Glenn (LB), E. Williams (FB), Aldrige or Dorsey (RB's), R Jackson (DE assuming he's eligable), Edit: Forgot Antonio Dixon (DT).

I'm probably wrong on this but I could've sworn there was a rule that you lose your practice squad eligibility if you stay on the roster for an entire season. Rob Jackson was on the roster the entire season last year so he might not be eligible.

DT Anthony Dixon will fill the last PS spot

Re: Redskins final cutdown thread
 

So Wynn makes the team? You can argue all night long about Dorsey, Aldridge, and Mason, but Wynn? Come on, you got to be effing kidding me? He's got one good year left, if that?

What the hell are they planning to do with the tackle position? You've got Heyer backing up Samuels, and Batiste backing up Heyer, and then Mike Williams? Get the eff out here. I forsee Yoder being on the O-line in week 13. They Cut Jansen for someone else that can't pass block? At least Jansen had it at one point. Mike Williams was a bust from jump street.

Why are they keeping four running backs? What are they trying to do, milk Betts and Rock one more year until Mason can take over?

So what happens when Soup and Collins go down, ARE?

Well, they get paid the big bucks to make these decisions. Hopefully they know what they're doing. I just can't see it.

Pissed that Dixon, Buzbee, and Bridges didn't make the squad. Mike Williams, get the eff out of here. There's only one Magic Mike around here and he's a lawyer.

Re: Redskins final cutdown thread
 

[B][COLOR="DarkRed"]4 Running Backs? Why do we need 4 Running backs? I'm thinking we should of cut Betts or Cartwright and keep our 2009 pick in Williams-FB. Maybe, we can use Betts as some solid trade bait? He could possibly go to someone for some more solid depth at O-line?

I just think I would rather have Jackson on, or Chase Daniel more then 4 running backs. I mean, CP had 350+ carries last year, and I know he's not going to get that many this year, but he will try. I jsut don't see all four of them being as productive as they can be. Rock does a good job on special teams, but I like Thomas back there better. He seemed quicker, and gave us that big play potential.

I guess you can't cut another ST player since we already got rid of 3 before the preseason.

Meh.. 4 RB's is a waste.[/COLOR][/B]

Re: Redskins final cutdown thread
 

I dont see why we keep Westbrook, is he really gonna make it on the field? If Tryon, Barnes, or Westbrook are seeing time anywhere other than special teams, we are in trouble.

Re: Redskins final cutdown thread
 

Special teams would die if Rock left.
Betts still has some vet savvy that Mason doesn't. He also is a good checkdown back as he has good hands.

Mason may be a '4th quarter back' to run down the clock so CP doesn't have to shoulder that load. I think Zorn still has jitters about Betts after that Seattle game last season.

Westbrook is there because of uncertainty on Carlos Rogers. They pretty much said that is why we carry 2 QBs and 6 CBs.

My only two surprises were Robert Thomas and Jeremy Bridges. I would have never expected D'Anthony Batiste over Bridges.
