BleedinBurgNGold Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Would love to get everyones thoughts. I say both if possible. But if we all had to pick just one based on what we have seen and know. Who would it be and Why? I say... Mason by a hair. That's a tough one...

Coach Williams Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 rb's are a dime a dozen.......besides....I attended MCC so I wanna see Marko succeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santana_89 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I rather take Dorsey than Mason.. Agreed I still like Mason but as Joey T said he has to play more than RB. Dorsey did well on special teams and in the game as well. I would take Marko Mitchell he may make Thomas and Kelly work a little harder and smarter.

“Misdirection” Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 rb's are a dime a dozen.......besides....I attended MCC so I wanna see Marko succeed Agreed. Also, I think a 5th or 6th string WR will see the field more in his position than a 3rd or 4th string RB. We can put a lot more receivers on the field at one time than we are going to runningbacks.

flexxskins Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 First of all lets give credit where credit is due...great question.:applause: On one hand I can see Mason doing a couple of different things for us like returning kicks and being our third RB. On the other hand having two 6'4 WR's on our team is something that I never thought that I would live to see being a Redskins fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DButz65 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Mitchell by a long shot for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticVillain Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 First of all lets give credit where credit is due...great question.:applause: Yeah I second that, this is a good question. Gotta go with Mitchell. He plays on ST too. Mason does not do that. In my opinion he is a poor mans Ladell Betts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rdskn4Lyf21 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Marko....we need a big receiver for the red zone. Imagine him and Kelly lining up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostofSparta Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Mitchell without question. He's just what the offense needs in the Red Zone: Cooley, Davis, Kelly, Thomas, Mitchell---5 wide. Let's see a defense beat that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bantu Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 whoever can contribute on special teams the most is who I would keep. I would keep Dorsey, but since he's not in the question I guess I have to go with Mason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedinBurgNGold Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 Good posts. The reason I chose Mason over Mitchell all but barely is because we have a 6'4 reciever in Kelly. I don't trust Ladell in the Red Zone. He doesnt have the toughness as a 3rd down back like Mason seems to have. But, I vote we keep them both. Kelly and Mitchell lined up in the Red Zone would be silly. Hail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DButz65 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 P.S. A poll here would be much easier than navigating through every post... my 2 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mel25 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 as much as i wanna see mason wit the skins, i'd rather see him go somewhere else and play. i hope he goes to the afc and lights it up, and maybe come back once clinton and/or ladell are done here. that bein said i'd go wit mitchell. going on what i saw yesterday, and assuming what's been said about practice is true, he might even be pushin for the 4th receiver spot.

KDawg Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I'd say Marko Mitchell. Situational receiver > 3rd string tailback that's not any better than Rock Cartwright (who also plays special teams, unlike Mason). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIXX99 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 As bad as it hurts me to not pick Mason, I gotta say Mitchell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veteranskinsfan Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I really like Mason. I know we could use an effective receiver too. But I want Mason. We should not have let him go last year. The kid can -. Put Marko on the leftover squad or injured reserve - find a way to keep him connected to the Skins if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mi6 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Marko Mitchell. Devin and Malcom have been hurt quite a bit, and neither has grabbed the opportunities presented to them. I would like to see the Skins have a very potent offense, and the one thing we don't have is a legit big, tall, speedy WR. While Marko may not be a trail blazer he is quick, is tall and strong, and has great hands. What makes him my choice is that he will push Devin and Malcom to be better players, and/or replace them in the starting lineup. I would ideally like to see Marko, Dorsey and Mason make the cut. For me, Rock would be the odd man out. Personally, I would trade Ladell for a LB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GibbsFactor Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Mitchell was drafted so he'll get the nod. I'd like to see both of them on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt Rich Fla Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I wish Mason could finally land somewhere and play. He's a preseason beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HBnotBlades Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Definitely Mitchell. He has the potential to be a very good receiver and a 6'4" receiver with speed is tough to come by. On the other hand, Mason has the potential to be a good shifty runner that's not a particularly good blocker or special teams player. Runningbacks like him aren't exactly a rare commodity.

redskins55 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Mitchell without question. He's just what the offense needs in the Red Zone: Cooley, Davis, Kelly, Thomas, Mitchell---5 wide. Let's see a defense beat that. We need to implement the spread offense in practice in order for it to work in games and I don't think Zorn is going that route. It is a shame though.. That really would be something! I say Mitchell! Cut Betts and sign Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
da#1skinsfan Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Mitchell. No offense to Mason but I'll take a 1 in 10 chance on a WR versus a 1 in 5 chance on an RB anyday. Especially with how bad we have been hurting in that dept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoot Point Really Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Mitchell... I think he is far more valuable to the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
