No Excuses Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 I hope we try some of the newer guys like Tryon, Thomas or Mason as the punt returners. Randle-El was horrible last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-bomb Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Smoot as a backup to Rogers? He isn't even practicing how can they start him and with no proven production? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefPowhatan17 Posted July 29, 2008 Author Share Posted July 29, 2008 I would think they would like to see Tryon back there. You know get a look at him this preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosandskinsMUSTwin Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 I hope we try some of the newer guys like Tryon, Thomas or Mason as the punt returners. Randle-El was horrible last year. It was the punt coverage more than anything. Randle El never had any space to work with, so he had to try all of his little misdirection moves to try and create space. They didnt work.

hoosandskinsMUSTwin Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Smoot as a backup to Rogers? He isn't even practicing how can they start him and with no proven production? Because Carlos is better all around corner than Smoot when healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demarqo Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Andre Carter at LDE? I haven't heard anything about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xameil Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Smoot as a backup to Rogers? He isn't even practicing how can they start him and with no proven production? because smoot only has a candy bar named after hime Carlos...IS the Monte Cristo. seriously probably because thats what it was last year. Looks like Thrash is still the #3 WR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flexxskins Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 A couple of things...here's to Fabini and Wade never having to step foot on the field as a Redskin again. Of course I just mean, here's to Thomas and Jansen staying healthy all season long. I appreciate everything that Fabini and Wade has done for us thus far. Also, even though I love Randle El like cooked food, I really hope that that first string PR is not written in stone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosandskinsMUSTwin Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 I seriously think you could see Chad Rinehart starting over Kendall by the end of the year, or, it wouldnt necessarily surprise me if Kendall played some center if Rabach struggles like he did at times last season and Rinehart at LG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedskinsFanatic Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Frost is 1st string over Brooks? :doh: Brooks can't be that bad. Interested to see how he does this preseason. :logo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-bomb Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Because Carlos is better all around corner than Smoot when healthy. When? The games I watched when he was healthy he never makes a play on the ball and can't catch for ****! The only thing he has on smoot is he is better at run support, that's it.

Forehead Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Two things I noticed... 1. Andrew Crummey is our backup center? 2. I enjoy the little blurb about "injured players are not included" that's on the bottom of the chart. Shouldn't that mean that half these names aren't on the chart right now? It doesn't say "injured reserve" or "out for the season," just injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randle-El was horrible last year.Could'nt agree with you more.Although I think El is a good addition to our team as a WR, his punt returning skills leaves a lot to be desired.

HogLover Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 I really want to see what these rookie safties can do during preseason. Maybe one of them challenges Fox or that Stuart fella for second string. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flexxskins Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 When? The games I watched when he was healthy he never makes a play on the ball and can't catch for ****! The only thing he has on smoot is he is better at run support, that's it. Truth be told, Smoot even improved that part of his game after ST's passing.

NomadicSkinFan Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Dose of reality time guys... Last year’s starters are automatically this year’s starters unless supplanted throughout preseason... ... preseason hasn't started yet guys. Relax.

hoosandskinsMUSTwin Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Incidentally, I really like our OL depth. People can say what they want about the age of our starters, but they are quality guys that would start for any team. Then, behind them you have a mix of proven veterans and talented young guys.

ChiefPowhatan17 Posted July 29, 2008 Author Share Posted July 29, 2008 Not one person has taken anyone's spot from last year yet. I bet after these 4 games this will change a lot. Smoot will be a starter, I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCS Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 The fine print at the bottom. *Depth chart is unofficial. Injured players not included.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary@Redskins.com Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 OK...Every year I put up the depth chart, and then fans go crazy. Yes, this is a depth chart that the coaching staff has put out, but it is "unofficial." You can bet they have another depth chart that is "official." On this unofficial depth chart (released to fans, media and other NFL teams), sometimes coaches put players ahead of other players simply because they don't want to create controversy. Think about it. All that said, here's one clarification: The depth chart has Taylor technically listed at DE/LB. For Redskins.com purposes, Taylor is listed at right defensive end, which means in this alignment he would go opposite the left tackle. If you've been at training camp, you've seen the limited reps that Taylor has had have been at right defensive end. But Taylor can play both left and right, and at linebacker, so you shouldn't read too much into this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
