Est.1974 Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Following the release of Thrash, I thought I'd bump this before we get another thread on 'who we will carry at WR this year' I never had Thrash in my choice, but do think Marko Mitchell makes it based, if nothing else, on the fact we like to keep all of our drafted guys first up.

Justsomeguy Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Kelly Moss El Thomas Mitchell I think is the safest bet though I think there is a good chance they might keep six and if so Hagans or maybe Eloi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illone Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 A few of us were wrong on Thrash. Maybe for the better. Maybe pave way for a guy like Aldridge or Eloi. :whoknows: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arsenic Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Santana MossAntwaan Randle El Devin Thomas Malcom kelly Marko Mitchell This is the same list i was thinking... Marko Mitchell might not be ready yet, though. edit: I found this Marko Mitchell highlight video: His middle name is Terrell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJL Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 The only way Kelly doesn't make the roster is if he's on IR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Moss, Kelly, Thomas, El, Mitchell, hopefully in that order. I'd be real surprised if they took more than 5 on the active roster going into '09, given the recent configurations of the roster. What wouldn't surprise me would be a vet. brought in for camp to compete. Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soup Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Moss Devin El Kelly I have a gut feeling they will go after another WR during camp. Either signing a free agent like Plax or trading for boldin. I don't know how the redskins can go into the season feeling confident with their WR group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodOnPaper Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 You guys don't realize that Roydell Williams is a good WR who could probably make an adequate push for the #3 or even #2 receiver spot on this team if the Rooks from last year can't do it. I'm pulling for him. He had a pretty good year when Vince Young was throwing him the ball... imagine how hard it is to be a productive WR when you got that lunatic throwing the ball to you.

darrelgreenie Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 So assuming we keep 5 guys on the 53 man roster who do you think makes the team? Tana ARE Kelly Thomas i think the 5th spot will be a battle between Williams, Shelton and Hagans but i think that Shelton has the leg up from being in Seattle and knowing the system somewhat I think Marko Mitchell makes the practice squad, but of course we'lll let some other team sign him like Cummey, Gant, Gatewood and Richardson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdcskins Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Moss Randle El Thomas Kelly Williams I was just reading the scouting analysis of Mitchell, he looks promising. Size and speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDevinThomas Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Moss Randle El Thomas Kelly Mitchell Why would we cut Devin Thomas or Malcom Kelly? Devin is coming into his own and will have a breakout season and become our No. 2 guy, and Malcom's knee caused no problems during OTAs and he'll make a push and get plenty of playing time.

dellman Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Some of you are now using the same misguided form of logic that these lame pollsters and opposing fans are using. The line of thought I am referring to is when they say Haynesworth is not effective because the Redskins OVERPAID for him. They discount him because they say he is not worth it. As though when he makes a sack or tackle, that particular sack or tackle does not really count because it cost the Redskins TOO MUCH money to get that sack or tackle. When speaking of Randell El, its NOT ABOUT THE MONEY. It does not matter if it costs too much to cut him or whatever, when you evaluate someone, you evaluate their effectiveness and not their salary. That is a mistake some of you are making. A.R.E. caught a record number of passes last year in a new system and he could easily catch 60 balls this season. THAT is all that is important. So if he works for $7 per hour, most of you would say "he's great...and a great value!" But if he makes $7 million dollars then suddenly he is not great? P.S. I don't even understand why some of you even bring up the word "CUT" and Randell El in the same sentence. Why in the HELL would you want to cut a receiver with over 50 catches. Its not like we have an abundance of receivers with 50 plus catches every year. That doesn't make even an ounce of sense to say something like that. Someone needs to rethink their thoughts. 60 catches is 60 catches regardless of his salary. If he is a great 3rd receiver and nothing more then fine, we have the best 3rd receiver in the league but I will take his 60 catches this year and appreciate them because I have no control over his salary and neither do you. Also, A.R.E. cannot return punts. We all know this but it should NOT undervalue his ability as a receiver. Chris Samuels can not return punts either but we don't undervalue him because of that. It was a mistake by the front office to keep A.R.E. returning punts this long and I think it will HELP him if he can just focus on receiving. We will benefit by him being a receiver 100% of the time.

Adam291 Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Moss, Randle El, Thomas and Kelly are locks. We're not going to give up on either of the latter players yet, unless they look absolutely horrible in TC. So far, they both look good and have earned praise, so assuming we only keep 5 WRs, there's just one spot up for grabs. What I've heard from coaches and other reports, the coaches really like Roydell Williams as the 5th guy. He has experience, a fair amount of production, good size, less risky than someone like Marko, and serviceable should Thomas or Kelly get hurt or not produce. Jaison Williams or Marko would be fun picks since they're like 10 feet tall, but I don't think the coaches want to take risks like that. Roydell Williams is the safe pick, and probably his job to lose right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Jones Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Heading into training camp my five: Moss Randle El Thomas Kelly Williams The only position up for grabs is the number 5 spot assuming no injuries. Wiliams has the edge because he has played and succeeded in the NFL and I think he is the best of veteran receivers coming in. Rookie WR's typical need a year or two to develop. The Rooks are battling for one, at the most two PS spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tml6157 Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Since we cut Thrash I see us going with 6 WRs. Moss, Randle El, Thomas and Kelly are the locks. Roydell Williams and Marko Mitchell make it IMO. Eloi will be practice squaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roydell Williams and Marko Mitchell make it IMO. Eloi will be practice squaded. I think all indications are that we'll stick with 5. Besides, if we were going to find an extra roster spot for someone, I'd rather it be another RB like Mason, Alridge or Dorsey than a WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
