BG4Life Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I know we are talking WRs, but could we say "D. Thomas" instead of just "Thomas"? I keep thinking RANDY Thomas when I just see "Thomas" written. Something to get used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoGood28 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I'd keep these guys and cut everyone else. We have plenty of other receiving threats including Cooley and Fred Davis. We need Thrash for Special Teams and experience. 89 Moss, Santana 82 Randle El, Antwaan Thomas, Devin Kelly, Malcolm 83 Thrash, James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoGood28 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I want to say ONE THINGI ASKED ZORN TODAY - at the draft day party HE told me "MIX WILL GET A CHANCE" So I do not see him cutting Mix What did you expect him to say? You're a fan and the man is busy. That was really nice and cool he spoke to you though. we cant cut thrash.. hes too important too special teams.. and hes a core redskin, not to mention he has alot of character AGREED. I said the EXACT same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drowland Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Not sure who all will still be here at WR, but gotta think we go 6 WRs due to the fact we will run a West Coast-type offense No way. They're going to keep 3 TEs and Vinny's said they're looking for a backup FB, so they're going to keep 2 FBs as well as 3 RBs. There's no need to keep 6 WRs when Davis and Cooley can both flex out. Only way they keep 6 WRs is if they decided to only go with 2 QBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbodiesel#44 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Only way they keep 6 WRs is if they decided to only go with 2 QBs.Which may be our best option with the unknowns at WR. If we need a #3 on game day, we put ARE in. Then we sign an old FA to finish up our miserable, unholy season. Unless Zorn, a QB "guru", is enamored with a late round prospect tomorrow.

michael_33 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Well...I hope we keep six WR's... #1)Santana Moss #2)Devin Thomas #3)Antwan Randel El #4)Malcolm Kelly #5)Anthony Mix #6)James Thrash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veretax Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 we cant cut thrash.. hes too important too special teams.. and hes a core redskin, not to mention he has alot of character Well if you think that, then he's definitly gone. We know what happens to anyone that gets called a Core Redskins. They end up leaving for greener pastures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkabong82 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 This is a West Coast offense, so we will have 6 WRs on the roster. Moss, ARE, D Thomas, and Kelly are essentially locks. Zorn has said many times Mix will get a shot, and I'm taking him at his word. Thrash has actual experience in the WCO from playing in Philly, and is an excellnt special teams contributor. Mathis, on the other hand, was signed for the vet. min., to be a return man. However, you now have Thomas who can do that, and Mathis was going to have to compete against Rock for KR duty anyways. Rock will most likely be KR this season, with Thomas backing him up. Thomas might get a nod in punt return, but ARE for now still has that job and Thrash is still the back up there too. To sum it up, Mathis is the most expendable, and will probably be the one who is cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L30L Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 IMO McMullen Burl Mann Thrash will be cut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbooma Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 this is what I'm thinking. We all love Thrash, but Zorn is not looking at the roster with the sentimentality that a fan may be.If Mathis tears it up on KO's, he could be kept as well. We only keep Thrash I think if we have 6 WR's on the roster, with his offense there is a chance of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monk in the Hall! Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Definitly going to be Moss and ARE + the two new guys.Mix, Thrash, and Mathis will compete for the 5th spot. They're all primarily been used as special teams guys. In this, I have to think Mix takes it. 1. Younger than Thrash 2. Less Injury prone than Mathis 3. Proved himself on Special Teams coverage last year 4. Kick off return special teams isn't a concern anymore. Rock, Thomas, and ARE all there. Mathis and Thrash being kick returners isn't a benifit to them anymore So I say Mix takes the 5th spot My thinking as well. Mathis vs. Mix vs. Thrash. And it will come down to who helps on ST more. What a wonderful thing to be having a debate about who our #5 WR is. Last year, these guys would have been battling for our #3 WR!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need Thrash for Special Teams and experience.89 Moss, Santana 82 Randle El, Antwaan Thomas, Devin Kelly, Malcolm 83 Thrash, James I agree. Thrash is a sold #3 reciever. He bailed us out a couple times last year and always goes full out. He is definitely worth keeping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdrun Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 we cant cut thrash.. hes too important too special teams.. and hes a core redskin, not to mention he has alot of character why does everyone seem to forget that he can actually play receiver when given the chance. Does anyone remember the Philly game last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailYeah Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Here's my questions: Is the writing on the wall for ARE??? Look at the evidence: 1) We bring in a punt returner as our only FA signing. 2) We draft two WRs in the 2nd round, a potential slot guy and an extra (hopefully) big play WR. 3) ARE is getting PAID like a madman, has not really produced as we have hoped (at least in the return game), and has had injury problems. Is ARE on his way out??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellis Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Thrash, Mann,McMullen I wanted to say Thrash but he had a damn good year last season right up to getting injured. Provided that injury isn't too bad... we may keep him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesus, Mary & Joe Gibbs Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I know this isn't popular but I would choose to move Randle El... He has a bigger salary than his skill set at WR would indicate... I would keep Kelly, Thomas, Moss, Mix, Thrash(Special Teamer), and even keep Mathis as Return Specialist if he's healthy...

Seabee1973 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 This will be who is left. Lets not forget the team will most likely be carrying 3 TE's now that the skins drafted another TE. Yoder will be kept for blocking situations (ie short-yardage, extra pass protection). 13 Mathis, Jerome WR 5-11 184 3 Hampton 07-26-1983 89 Moss, Santana WR 5-10 200 7 Miami (Fla.) 06-01-1979 82 Randle El, Antwaan WR 5-10 190 6 Indiana 08-17-1979 Kelly, Malcolm WR 6'4" 218 Oklahoma Thomas, Devin WR 6'2" 215 Michigan State Mix and Thrash will probably be put on PS Thrash cant be put on the PS squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DexterSackMachine Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 1)Moss 2)Thomas 3)ARE 4)Kelly 5)Mix Thrash will be released because Mix can take his place on special teams. One of the younger unknown guys will wind up on the practice squad, but I have no idea which. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Moss and ARE continue to miss practice and game time with nagging injuries, they could one or both be gone within the next 1-3 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forever21 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 1. Moss2. ARE 3. Thomas 4. Kelly 5. Mix That's our WR group. The rest will be cut, with some of the younger guys possibly on the practice squad. Agreed. I think Thrash may be kept around as a number 6. But honestly I think his time is about done here. It's time to get the young guys playing and learning and growing with JC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
