Hmm...maybe Marshall does get moved to WLB, huh? I expect the 'Skins to draft a young guy to play MLB later if Cowart is signed. Cowart only has a few yrs left. He is a beast of a MLB'er if healthy though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terpfan Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Hmmm... he's kind of old, but for a reasonable price this wouldnt be a bad signing. Definately a stop gap untill Clemons and McCune develop (hopefully) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the money the Skins always dish out....what agent would be stupid enough to have his client visit another team with a Redskins invite?

Zen-like Todd Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Isn't he in a wheelchair by now or something? Dude was WAY slow when he was with the Jets. I'm sure there are some old archived posts on this board of me dissing the Jets' lack of speed in the back seven a couple of years, partially due to Cowart.

RDSKNfaithfull Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Isn't Cowart the one Ramsey ducked and Threw the bomb to Coles in the Season opener a few years back? Or was it Slowmo Lewis? Both of them run like a 5 flat these days :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sailskipper Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Terrible Idea...he is way too old. Lets just Draft someone or put either clemons or McCune into the mix. :dallasuck :eaglesuck :gaintsuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zztrainv2 Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 At this point i'm not sure he has much left, and I also don't think moving Marshal again is a serious option. The MLB especially in Williams' defense makes the playcalls and adjustments, thats the whole reason they moved him to begin with. They wanted someone who already knew the system. So moving him back for a band-aid replacements seems pointless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliforniaSkin Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Hmm. I actually like the idea if the price is right. Sign him to a 1-3 year contract, draft an ILB and move Marshall to the outside. Hopefully in a year or two McCune or whoever we draft this year will be ready to take over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both of them run like a 5 flat these days :doh: It was Lewis that Ramsey ducked but more importantly it was Cowart that Ramsey outran for the big 25 yard gain and a huge 1st down late in the game. This guy makes Warrick Holdman look like a great athlete. NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randythesofine Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Forget moving Lemar back outside, he knows the defense too well. I think we should go after this guy as an outside LB. http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/fa?playerId=3680 Nick Greisen | LBFull Name: Nick Greisen Born: August 10, 1979Sturgeon Bay, WI Height: 6-1 Weight: 245 lbs. Insider Analysis Grade68Expert's TakeGreisen is a downhill outside linebacker who has excellent instincts for the position. He is a physical player who is very active and around the ball. He has an excellent motor, plays hard and has enough speed to make plays from sideline to sideline. He is better against the run than he against the pass and is used mostly on run downs. He has good recognition skills and can key and diagnose plays quickly. He has good overall athletic ability, foot speed and lateral movement. He is technique sound. He does not take false steps, takes good angles to the ball and plays with good knee bend and leverage. He uses his hands to shed blockers and seldom gets caught up in traffic. He did a nice job coming off the edge on his blitzes. He has good quickness and will make tackles redirect. He is a good tackler, is explosive at contact and does a good job of finishing off the ball carrier. However, Greisen lacks good overall pass coverage skills. He does not have good top-end speed and is a lot quicker than he is fast. He is decent in zone coverage, but when matched up man to man on fast running backs, he struggles to keep up and does not have a good closing burst. He does not have great size and strength and will get engulfed by bigger offensive linemen at times. Overall, Greisen is a good football player. He is very instinctive, consistent and productive player. He has upgraded his game to become a good starter and playmaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
