Hogs Haven chats with Redskins LB Robert Henson

[an23dy]

I liked everything he said, but it's tough to take too much stock in everything, because he's positive about everybody. It's what you're supposed to do, can't criticize your teammates, but if we're as good as he says it looks like we'll be 19-0 easy. I don't like that Vinny is picking the guys that go to his church, you'd think he could travel a little further to scout guys than the church parking lot. I like Henson though and I hope he can be as good as he says he wants to be.

I can't knock what they have done. Pulling in local talent. Why not? If they weren't drafted and other teams fail to pick them up then give them a shot.

If the team turns out to be 19-0 then DS and Vinny are geniuses, right. If we are 8-8 again guess who the fall guys are....again.

I don't have a problem with their last two yrs drafts. My only complaint would be that we did not pick up O-lineman, but we seem to have done a decent job picking up Dockery, and Williams I think will supprise, Bridges is a nice addition, last yrs drafted O-lineman is stepping up as well as Heyer. I also like the Center we picked up this yr. So basically if they perform well ...no complaints from me.

I'll agree, I don't really have a problem with the last 2 years as of now, but there's still a lot to be determined with those guys, especially the receivers from last year. I was more joking about Vinny, but in terms of pulling local talent and giving them a shot. If this guy were undrafted then yeah, but we took him in the sixth so it's a little different. Not saying that a 6th round pick means much and I doubt Vinny put much stock into it, but it's just a lil weird.
