1987TimmySmith Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Just heard Gibbs on sport the local comcast "sportsnite" he said that sean taylor spoke highly of rocky prior to the draft i found that interesting, that gibbs (the team) thinks so highly of sean so glad we got him as opposed to winslow, hes the most exciting redskin ive ever followed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsNeverDie Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Okay, now we're just missing 18 more players from the U and we'll be set . I trust Gibbs, and if he trusts Taylor with these decisions, then so be it. Rocky is gonna be a beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPstretch Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 would have been interesting if we had taken winslow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altair4 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Yeah, and Clinton "Assistant GM" Portis gave it the big thumbs up as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdarugar Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I really thought we were going to take Maxey (CB from the U) in the 5th, I was pissed when the Chiefs took him right after we selected that big fat DT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiscoBob Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I think it's great that they have first hand knowledge of him as a player. I'm sure playing with the guy gives them (especially Taylor) a good feel for what he can do. I'm glad Gibbs seems to have an open door to his players and/or asks for their input. It's that type of relationship that gives him the respect of the players. All that said, I'm sure that the FO must have been pretty excited about Rocky too, talking to guys like Taylor is just a natural step if you think you see something in a guy...

jpahira Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Obviously Gibbs is going to find something/someway to tie Rocky as a more likeable "Redskin." (referring to Taylor, Portis and Moss's approval) It was a big move to go up and grab him moving up 18 spots. He has some big shoes to fill though...especially when we will see those shoes twice a year(against NY). Overall I like the pick, hopefully his "good test grades"(high wonderlick scores) means that he is smart enough to learn William's and Dale Lindsey's gameplans. Does anyone know how he did on the wonderlick?? Also I personally want to give a thank you to the silly Jets who, for some reason, are always so eager to help us out!

Enter Apotheosis Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Clinton Portis was right about Sean Taylor (and Santana)... why not trust both of them on Rocky McIntosh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loxley Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Gibbs played it smart, asking guys who knew him, i would think the FO had already had their eye on him anyway as Gibbs said in one of the press conferences, they got their guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be suprised if that "Big Fat Defensive Tackle" is starting next to Cornelius Griffin in a few years. Also Don't be suprised if Marcus Maxey is out of the league in a few years either.lol...
