truskinsfan18 Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 Who do you guys think will be the middle linebacker opening day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walking Deadman Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 I would guess Marshall or Holdman...... but don't count out Mccune, especially if Lavar can't play (either Marshall or Holdman would then take LA's spot). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truskinsfan18 Posted June 20, 2005 Author Share Posted June 20, 2005 It wont be Mccune because there are too many experienced guys who can play, unless he lights it up in preseason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drex Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 I am going with Holdman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redman Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 Question: true or false, Barrow is not medically recovered to the point that the team can release him? Nevermind, I just read that he participated in all of the mini-camp drills. Given that, I think we start him for a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaBeachSkinzFan Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 I think if Barrow is healthy, then he will start. I don't see anyone taking his job this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Master Jay Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 Barrow is he's healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntotoro Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 It's looking more and more to me like Barrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budski Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 Barrow, with Marshall taking Lavar 's place again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoony Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 The thing with Barrow is that theres no learning curve with him. If the Doctors give him clearance, then he is automatically the starter. Thats why he was brought here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCMONEY Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 If healthy I'd like to see Barrow start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDSKNfaithfull Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 We have a lot of packages and a lot of options all are very good linebackers. I hope all see the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek1973 Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 If Barrow is healthy not only he starts but IMO we have just upgraded the position from last year by A LOT. No disrespect to Pierce but Barrow healthy is a monster in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zuck Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 If he's healthy definately Barrow. I don't think they'd keep him on the roster for what they'd pay him next year if he was going to simply be a backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dem"U"boys26/36 Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 i said barrow thinking if he was healtly but watch out for Clifton Smith he was nice at the Cuse he might shock alot of people in GW defense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorPickSix Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 I voted Marshall but it will prob be Barrow. End of the year it will be McCune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedskinPride27 Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 I vote for Barrow, if he's healthy, he's by far the better option at MLB, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themurf Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 This coaching staff is going to give Mike Barrow every chance they can to win that starting middle linebacker job. Think back to last year with Mark Brunell - they like a veteran at those key leadership positions. It'll take an awful lot for them to give up on him and give the spot to someone else.

bedlamVR Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 From what has been said about Barrow and in finding what is wrong with his knee he could be a major upgrade at MLB even over AP and gives us a chance to groom the guys behind the big three because we seem to have alot of talent back there.

bedlamVR Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 I also think we will need a replacement for LaVar in the comming years, he is really not endearing himself to GW esspeciall considering what GW said about the redskins, the emblem, the moto, the history and the future franchise are all more important that one individual player .

Hey bedlam....instead of posting two times in a row, try to include everything in one post. Its all here in the rules and guidelines that I'm sure you've already read If you want to add something later, just hit the 'edit' button to add to your post.

Warhead36 Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 I think when it comes down to it Marshall will win the job in Camp. But something will happen, perhaps injury, and we'll see Barrow and Holdman more on the field as the season progresses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful when you lump the coaching staff all together. Williams, Lindsay, Blache, etc. had no part in the Brunell decision. That was up to Gibbs, Breaux, etc. The Barrow decision will be up to Williams, Blache, and especially Lindsay (I think he is LB coach), who may or may not have a different idea about veterans. That being said, if Barrow is healthy, he gets the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomadskin11 Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 Go Barrow! Pleasant and welcome surprise given what I thought would happen with him as little as three weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
