lunarluau Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Dave Butz, at least since I've been watching Gotta love Fred Stokes though too. He had a nose for the ball that you just couldn't teach. I'd like to know what his forced fumbles and fumble recovry stats look like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gusthecat Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 It should be, "AFTER Dave Butz, who was the best Redskins DT ever?"For me, it would be Talbert, then Grant, then Johnson. Butz' here career was better than any other two, combined. Best post. I agree with your order. :applause: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Well that's a tough one. Noone really comes to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECU-ALUM Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 It's between Dave Butz and Daryl Grant. Butz had the longevity, but the image of Daryl storming into the endzone and spiking the ball against Dallas in the NFC title game is etched in my mind. Push comes to shove though...I'll take Butz.

photo4u Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Dave Butz or Freddie Stokes. Those are my two also. I remember Dave Butz and that helment all scratched up. Classic stuff there!!!!!! Fred Stokes was an animal in there too. I know some folks have already said Jumpy Geathers, why in the world did we let him get away? I know he went on to play somewhere else though.

Art McDonough Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Butz had 74 total tackles in 1982 including playoff games. In 1983, he had 69 tackles and 11 1/2 sacks. They were his best stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abshir Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Here's to the present man at arms ---- Corneilus Griffin ----- He is our achilles heal ... when he plays we play hard when he's out ... it shows dramatically. Only guy to help us to get great pass rushing with only 4 defensive lineman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWinzit Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Fred Stokes was an animal in there too. I know some folks have already said Jumpy Geathers, why in the world did we let him get away? I asked myself the same question regarding Jumpy, damn was he good! Stokes was good also, but he was a 260lb DE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SB33 Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Turk Edwards Tackle, 1932-40, Inducted into HOF 1969 is the only Skins tackle in the HOF. Diron Talbert, Dave Butz are next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD Riggo Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Dave Butz or Diron Talbert, although Butz I think would be the favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art McDonough Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Regarding Turk Edwards, the first Redskins starting lineup in 1932 when they were the Boston Braves lists him at 6-2 230 lbs. The average weight of the offensive line starters was 211. Turk did "balloon up" to 260 before he retired in 1940. Things sure have changed.

big daddy ben Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Griffin will eventually be the no brainer but I have to go with Darly Grant. Taking nothing away from mr.Butz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcarey032 Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 butz was the run stuffer. I thought he really did a great job of controlling the line of scrimmage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTTR84 Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 I'de have to go with Butz, Grant, & C. Griff Honorable mention would be Diron Talbert, Bill Brundidge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
