Sorry I cant get a direct link fellas but Ill post what he said about each

Santana

The second half of the mighty-mite wide receiver tandem on the ESPN.com All-Pro team, Moss was nearly as explosive as Smith, and he gave the Redskins' offense a sorely needed vertical dimension. His 17.7-yard average was second-highest among players with at least 60 receptions, and Moss had 10 catches of 40 yards or more. Six of his nine touchdowns were 32 yards or more, and he averaged 43,7 yards per scoring catch.

Randy

A broken ankle prematurely ended his season after 14 games, but Thomas helped lead the way for Clinton Portis and, as usual, was a deceptively solid pass protector. After he got a lucrative deal to sign with Washington as an unrestricted free agent in 2003. Thomas was heavily scrutinized, and some critics felt he was overrated. That talk certainly stopped this season, as Thomas once again blended athleticism with prototype strong-side power.

Marcus

Was chosen for the Pro Bowl a year ago and had an even better season in '05, but somehow was snubbed by the voters. Washington is one of the best all-around linebackers that no one outside the Beltway seems to know about. The versatile six-year veteran isn't very flashy but does a lot of things well, and he had a career-best 7.5 sacks in 2005. Washington also had 93 tackles, two fumble recoveries, one interception and six passes defensed.

I love seeing Washington being recognized for his all-around efforts. There are alot of linebackers out there who rack up alot of tackles, yet don't bring the pass coverage or pass rush that Washington does. The LB position is a complex one, especially in a Gregg Williams scheme, so kudos to Pastabelly this time for paying some respect where it's due.
