Pasquarelli with some praise for our CB situation

Something tells me one of these guys (apart from Springs) won't make it to the final roster.

I highly doubt Smoot would get cut. I think you are speaking apart from Springs AND Smoot in this case. We made a decent investment in him, plus he intangibles like getting the crowd into it, the Skins wont cut him. He is still a good 3rd or 4th CB.

I couldn't handle a double-dose of Smoot jersey obsolescence. I'm rockin' that joint this year.

How do you think I'd feel if he gets cut?! I may need therapy

I wouldn't worry about it. Let's just watch what happens. The decision will be obvious at some point. We should be able to get 4 pretty good players from the group we have and I think Smoot will make a very strong case for himself. Butler's hamstring is a real question mark. That injury hangs around.

So I guess you would be the artist formerly known as Smootsack, who went back to Smootsmack, and now has changed his name again.

Best post I've seen today!

I've often thought Springs would move to Safety as his days as a Corner are getting shorter.

I mentioned that in 2004, when we first offered a deal to Butler. Some here didn't take too kindly to that thought it seemed

Skins.com just had an article completely ruling that out:

One thing is certain: Springs will not transition to safety, a move that he discussed shortly after the 2006 season. Springs had said that he preferred playing cornerback, but he thought he could move to safety to help prolong his NFL career.
The Redskins have positioned Sean Taylor at free safety and rookie draft pick LaRon Landry at strong safety. The team also has quality depth in safeties Pierson Prioleau, Omar Stoutmire, Vernon Fox and Reed Doughty.
