Apparently we got a nice stop gap at OLB now especially if the Chris Wilson experiment doesn't work. Hopefully this will give us more freedom on draft day.

Re: Redskins sign Robert Thomas
 

This guy played 2 games last year. He isnt a stop gap he is just a training camp competition guy to see how he does. Is is no more of a stop gap than any other linebacker on the squad looking to take Marcus' spot.

Re: Redskins sign Robert Thomas
 

I don't get it...per the insider section this guy isn't even a legit backup. He's a special teams player...probably a downgrade even from Khary Campbell. And if this means we're def not re-signing Marcus it's a lousy situation.

Edit: his 68 insider rating on ESPN places him as an avg starter; however, he doesn't look to have started much. Oh well, maybe Blache can make him better. Godfrey played very well for us during his brief stint and Thomas is way younger.

Re: Redskins sign Robert Thomas
 

He had some significant PT earlier in his career. He does have more starts than most of our LB's. Maybe he was brought in as a teamer to take KC off of teams. Who knows?

Re: Redskins sign Robert Thomas
 

I don't know that he'll really offer us much more than some special teams play

That's a pretty sweet bikini! More interesting than the player.

Matchbox Twenty fan?

Re: Redskins sign Robert Thomas
 

This statement is not an endorsement of his ability, but he was a 1st rounder in 2002. He was also a history major at one of America's great public universities so you know he is bringing something to the locker room :)

Re: Redskins sign Robert Thomas
 

Who the hell is Robert Thomas..? Oh, I think this guy worked with me last week......

Re: Redskins sign Robert Thomas
 

Taken just before Ramsey

With him, that means we have had five different first round picks from 2002 on our roster (not all simultaneously of course): Haynesworth, Duckett, Rumph, Thomas, Ramsey

Re: Redskins sign Robert Thomas
 

Thank God we got Robert Thomas, move over Haynesworth. This is the prize of our offseason.

Re: Redskins sign Robert Thomas
 

...and we make a thread about this...

Re: Redskins sign Robert Thomas
 

I can't believe Duckett was a 1st rounder...

Well i tend to have more faith in our defensive coaches maximizing talent than a do the offensive folks. I dunno...maybe this turns out to be another diamond in the rough situation for us. Would be very sweet.
