Johns Bass Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Well let's see who they mentioned: RB - they listed 6 but did not include Kerridge (FB). You'd have to throw him in there somewhere competing to make it because he'd take up a runner's roster spot. So maybe half of those guy's don't make it to the finals. They might keep both Thompson and Marshall but the battle there would be for snaps. Marshall has size & speed on his side (provided he's healthy) & Thompson has experience, even if it's only 19 games with an appearance and as a receiver. LG - OK, one way or another they keep Long regardless if he starts. The Redskins ran extremely well when Lauvao was in but Long was markedly improved by the end of the season. If cut after June 1st, Washington eats $1M in Dead Money this year and another $1M next year. But they also get $4M in Cap for each of those two years. Kouandjio probably has his best shot if he can play Center. Is Reiter ready to step up? WR - let's just say a big battle that'll go on there. They've got 10 now and will keep 6 or maybe 7. Five vet's; 5 rookies. TE - Last season literally a sore spot. Six in camp right now. The only one that might be PS qualified would be Jensen (but don't know). Paulsen & Jensen are the blocking bruisers & they'll keep one but only one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
