Long story short was we drafted Jahan Dotson, we had Terry McClaurin and Curtis Samuel. We drafted Dyami Brown last year. So he was looking at 5th string WR at best. The Rams called and he got the slot 3rd WR role. Much more playing time available to him there. It wasn't that we didn't want him back, it was the he saw it as a better opportunity than here.

yeah I didn't see that. Totally missed this. 29 pages of responses is hard to keep up with all of them. Thanks for the update.

what do you mean. He was there. He did conditioning tests.

Did we sign any of the tryouts? Usually a couple get signed.

I have been waiting for pictures. Wanted to see our boys for the first time in their actual uniforms doing football things. I found it kind of ironic that the first pictures of a Quarterback throwing a football in a new Commanders uniform was going to be Sam Howell and not Carson Wentz. They are doing OTA's but those aren't padded and looks like everyone is just wearing the old generic burgundy jersey with a white number. I want to see guys in those new W helmets, and everything.

Apparently Decalon Brooks LB is the son of Derrick Brooks. Fantastic LB with the Buccs. Hope he has some of his father in him.

We also invited Trey Gross WR Deleware State for a tryout.

Navy CB Michael McMorris has been given a rookie camp try out invitation. I can't get the article, I don't have a subscription, but it is posted in the Capital Gazette. EDIT - Found a different article by Navy Sports confirming. https://navysports.com/news/2022/5/4/football-michael-mcmorris-invited-to-rookie-free-agent-camp-by-the-washington-commanders.aspx

Dude is a 6 year vet. This isn't an UDFA signing. We lost a Kick Returner in DeAndre Carter. This guys is a decent return guy. So this is a real free agent signing. He has basically been the starting returner for the Bengals for 5 years and last year with the Panthers. He may actually be more accomplished than DeAndre was when we signed him. Erickson had close to 3500 return yards, Carter had less than 1600. He is an ex Panthers who actually doesn't have a tie to Ron.

Wait, didn't it say, the John Kiem Podcast reported no more signings for a couple weeks, and then John Kiem reports they signed Erickson?

Hey did anyone see that we picked up Stephen Davis Jr? Yes that Stephen Davis. I am friends with Mr. Davis on Facebook, and he posted to his son, proud of you, all you need is a chance, what you do with it is up to you. HTTC and it was a picture of his kid and the W logo.

I seem to remember that when we drafted Terry McClaurin, there were a lot of pundits who said we should have taken Myles Boykin. Taller etc. See how that turned out. Give Jahan Dotson a chance. I agree with Burgundy Blog, my guess is we go Jaquan Brister S with our 2nd rounder.

All anyone does it talk about the good ole days, so here we are. We have the 2022 version of the smurfs. Terry McClaurin, Curtis Samuel, Jahan Dotson, and Dyami Brown. Maybe they will be as good as Art Monk, Charlie Brown, Alvin Garrett and Virgil Seay, or maybe they become like the greatest show on turf. When the Rams had Torry Holt (1st round pick), Isaac Bruce (2nd) , Az Zahir Hakim(4th), and Ricky Proehl (3rd). All of them were 6' or less. They did all right. McLaurin (3rd), Samuel (2nd), Dotson (1st), Brown (3rd). Draft status is only for contract negotiation. Desean Jackson, 2nd round pick. If someone had picked Desean in the first, everyone would have cried like they do now, and then he went on to be spectacular. Would have been well worth a 1st, even a high first. Heck top 5 and it still would have been warranted. But that got proven out over time.

LOL. Wouldn't that be something if we traded back with the Cowboys, took some of their picks and turned them into blue chip players. And they blew whomever they wanted to pick. LOL. Please let that happen.

I guess everyone hated Kurt Warner too. All the way to a Super Bowl. This was made by Irsay, everyone knows, it isn't a very well kept secret.
