Stophovr6 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 So we're celebrating the fact that we have zero depth at tackle? Not exactly. Hopefully someone else on the roster like Capers can come along. None of the other tackles on the roster have the experience Heyer has but that doesn't mean one of them can't be better. I'm more excited by the prospect of new players than the mediocrity of known talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrelgreenie Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 wait...stephon heyer was our best rated OT last year by pro football prospects? why was he so horrible?Exactly.Extremeskins logic at work. How come my perception doesn't match reality? ---------- Post added August-2nd-2011 at 08:05 PM ---------- So we're celebrating the fact that we have zero depth at tackle?Pretty much.

Skinsinparadise Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Forgot where I saw it but I recall reading Heyer was the 8th worst lineman in the league last year -- factoring % of QB hits when he played Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrelgreenie Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 10. The Redskins don’t have a swing tackle on their roster, certainly no one better than what Stephon Heyer was in recent years. Now that’s a sentence I thought I’d never type. But it’s true. Selvish Capers is not ready, nor is anyone else. Capers allowed Darrion Scott to get inside him and earlier was moved back by Joseph. Yes, it’s early but it’s still worth mentioning. Capers and Erik Cook were really hurt by the lockout. Oh, and it appears Heyer will be signing with Oakland.Read more at the Washington Examiner: http://washingtonexaminer.com/blogs/nfl/2011/08/practice-report-redskins-analysis-aug-2#ixzz1Tv5hWXbD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listed every player who played at least 1 snap in the regular season last year. League leaders and losers had to play a minimum of 25% of their teams snaps to qualify. Grading explained: http://www.profootballfocus.com/about/grading/ 2010 Redskins OT: 1. Stephon Heyer (-13 .3) 2. Jammal Brown (-18.8) 3.

Stophovr6 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 There's also these great stats. http://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2011/06/15/three-year-pass-blocking-efficiency-offensive-linemen/ Sadly Jammal Brown is in the bottom 15 for tackles as well. Sigh. There are two other things to consider at this time. The season hasn't started and the rosters not set. Maybe Heyer wanted to move on.

Beans Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 People are too easily swayed by what some dumbass webite says. My new get rich quick scheme. 1. Create website. "superseriousfootballrankings.com" 2. Nerds visit site for "sourcing" to help validate opinions on their respective fan message board. 3. Profit. 4. Break into the porn industry with my new found capital. I, for one, am glad that Rabach and Heyer are gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Califan007 The Constipated Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Heyer will become good depth wherever he ends up :yes:... At any rate, as a few others have mentioned, Heyer gave his all, played through injuries and has carved out an acceptible career for a guy who nobody drafted. Plus he seemed like a good guy. No hard feelings, hope you do well, Mr. Heyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mi6 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 I know there are folks that despise Heyer. But, I think he is a decent backup, and I sure do hope we have someone in the wings who is MUCH better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RabidFan Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Good story for the kid and congrats....to show up and be asleep at the front door of Redskins Park on day one of camp to be awoken by coaches and make the team and make a career in the NFL...God bless him.

DieselPwr44 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Surprised.Heyer's versatility alone makes him a very worthy backup player in this league. Though he clearly wasn't able to hold down a starting role for a season, he had the ability to keep you afloat at multiple spots. Without him, we have to do something else on the line. Yeah, like go to Walmart and get a folding chair, which would be a clear upgrade to Tackle for Heyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0crates Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 I would consider Heyer a good depth player at this point. He has a fair amount of experience at a bunch of spots on the line. We all remember how poorly he did replacing Jansen a few years back, but he has had a few decent games since then. I won't say I will miss him, but I will say I wish him the best. Depth on the offensive line remains a concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
