I'd rather Cousins get the starts but Rex get the mop-up duty in the game in which RG got hurt. Early on for a rookie like Cousins you'd like not to drop him into a game with no decent prep. Chances are it'd be disastrous.

Apparently, according to Wikipedia (the most reliable of all sources) he has been released.

What about the final cuts at WR? If Robinson doesn't make the team, they can always place him on the practice squad. But another team may claim him. Banks should be in. If Kyle Shanahan can find ways to use Banks on offense, then he can be just as explosive as he is a return man. I would say that Banks made the team. Dezmon Briscoe has been a pleasant surprise. All the dude does is score TDs. He showed during the preseason that he can get open. Anthony Armstrong came on too late in my opinion. He did have that 46 yard grab last night but I don't see how that is enough to measure against the other wide outs competing for a roster spot.

I would not want to be Shanahan right now... With Banks' speed and return talent, it seems like a hard cut to make for a team that was 6-10 and then 5-11. He's a threat every time he returns the ball. It's the body of work from the other games and training camp that's a concern and he is small and he's got things to learn at the wide out position. He actually played some running back in college so the wildcat option is real for the Redskins should they decide to pull a play like that.

I bet Shanahan keeps more receivers than the general public thinks he will keep.

Hail.

Nood torn ACL. They were super quiet about it. Josh Wilson didn't know until her got back for training camp.

Here's the Redskins' (meaningless) Week 1 depth cha... on Twitpic

I not qualified enough to say how much one can read into this but, It seems like Morgan has outplayed Hankerson and Moss will be the primary slot WR. LT depth is hanging by thread. Royster will have to show and prove he can be thee featured back.

How in the world is Tyler Polumbus starting on an NFL team?

Two words: Jammal Brown.

More words: He is always injured, and Willie Smith didn't do enough to take the job, leaving Polumbus as our only option. Hopefully I never have to type those last 5 words again.

You think you can out question me?

I'm glad both rules finally got approved, I thought when they got shot down for the first time by the NFLPA that it meant they were dead and were likely to never happen. Both are good ideas that will be helpful to almost every team in the league.
