Re: Shanahan Tells Banks He Better Learn to Play WR
I just wish Danny Smith would teach the guys how to block on extra points and field goals

I know I didn't. I love the excitement Banks brings and the chance to break one but he wasn't quite Devin Hester. I realize that it's not all on him but we can't afford the roster spot anymore. Signing Garçon, and Morgan sealed his fate honestly because we had more talent at WR. Sorry Lil Guy.

Re: Shanahan Tells Banks He Better Learn to Play WR
No more room for a one trick pony. I highly doubt BB makes the team this year.

Re: Shanahan Tells Banks He Better Learn to Play WR
i question whether he's even worth one of our 90 camp roster spots. actually, i dont question it. he's not worth it. i'd rather have a third kicker in camp than banks.

Re: Shanahan Tells Banks He Better Learn to Play WR
Austin has looked good in the preseason in the past, but he obviously needs to step it up when the regular season rolls around.

Re: Shanahan Tells Banks He Better Learn to Play WR
Rumor has been 6
As for Austin, I have heard some speculation out of Redskins Park the last few months that a big, big reason the Redskins let Keenan McCardell go was that they felt he did a poor job developing Austin.

Re: Shanahan Tells Banks He Better Learn to Play WR
Why?
Sorry, I just have never been a Banks enthusiast - for all the reasons others have already stated. I am sure he's a great kid and, yes, he has some speed. As Matty indicated, however, he's a one-trick pony even in the return game. He's never struck me as "elusive" - if there's no seam, there's no return. As much as people want him to be, he's just not that special. I think the sixth spot will be a pretty open competition between Austin & Robinson. If it's close, they may give it Austin and stash Robinson on the PS for another year.

Re: Shanahan Tells Banks He Better Learn to Play WR
Was hoping Austin would be further along by now... wouldnt be surprised if the McCardell thing was true. Also wouldnt be surprised if in his limited action whoever was qbing didnt really look his way.
