Califan007 The Constipated Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 While this is great, remember all the amazing things that came from the player-led workouts last year? Let's not get ahead of ourselves here Apples and oranges. Last year, there was a lockout and the player-led workouts were for ALL positions...this year, they have team-supervised OTAs and minicamp sessions first, and the player-led workout is just between QB and WRs to help build chemistry and timing. ---------- Post added June-29th-2012 at 08:28 AM ---------- Such amazing things as John Beck's veteran leadership!I shouldn't hate on the guy. He really wanted to be our answer at QB. Just didn't quite have the nerves or the arm strength to do it. Hey, the guy did have some good leadership skills...unfortunately, those were apparently the only skills he brought with him to the regular season lol.

LOL, ouch! I am excited to see this. Everybody made such a fuss about Brees doing this last year with the Saints during the lockout and here is Griffin doing it as an unsigned rookie in his first 2 months on the team. He has it all, we only have to hope he can put it together on gamedays. If he does..get off the tracks, a train is coming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sizzla3000 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Please no Miami, after Waco this season RG3. :paranoid:Nothing good, ever comes out of Florida. Go to L.A. or stay in D.C. or something. I would rather you take a flight to Syria or Egypt and workout, than going to Miami, Florida PLEASE stay out of Florida, RG3. That's all we need a group of our best players being attacked by face eating Zombies!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ucfSKINS Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Great sign of support by the WRs to workout with RG3. Hopefully they he develops great chemistry with them that can translate over once the season starts.---------- Post added June-28th-2012 at 04:01 PM ---------- Definitely agree that they need to stay out of Miami or LA. Great sign of support by the WRs to work out with RG3 down there in Waco. Hopefully he develops great chemistry with them that can translate over once the season starts. I hope they come to FL....but Orlando instead of Miami. It would be ****ing amazing to see those guys here. Plus, who the hell wants to work out in Waco, TX?

ucfSKINS Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 I heard that was the plan this year, but Mara thought it would be an unfair competitive advantage, so he set the fires in Colorado.

Baylor Alum Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Plus, who the hell wants to work out in Waco, TX? Waco is an armpit. But the Baylor campus and athletic facilities are beautiful and top notch. Probably better than many NFL team facilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texasthunder Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Waco is an armpit. But the Baylor campus and athletic facilities are beautiful and top notch. Probably better than many NFL team facilities. What he said is true. There is not a whole lot of places they can get in trouble, heck we only have 3 strip clubs and maybe a handful of bars. And Baylor does have some top notch training facilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsGuy Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 What is count down days to signing so they can come to camp? It should be in the next couple of weeks or so. I saw on NFL Network a while ago that while veterans report July 25th, they want the rookies to report on July 16th. So unless that date was a typo, they should be working on RG3's deal soon.

TSO Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I know it said "among others" but I was really hoping to read Hankerson's name among the receivers going. Maybe he is and I'm just looking too much into it though lol, I thought the same thing, but then I remembered that Hankerson was pretty much held out the entire minicamp by the coaches and they didn't want him going all out until training camp. They may have told him not to go to Waco, rest up and be as healthy as possible until then. *edit* Of course, this thread is already 5 pages long and about one hundred people have already replied to you with pretty much the same response. What am I, an ES amateur? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flexxskins Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I am especially excited to know that Brandon Banks is taking the trip. One, I don't think that he will make the 53 man roster this season only returning kicks and punts. Two, I really believe that he could prove to be yet another weapon on offense in a variety of ways.

AlvinWaltonIsMyBoy Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Koolaid. Delicious koolaid. Gettin Moss out of "Da U" for a summer is saying something. What it says to me is our guys think they can win the division. I didn't say I think we can win the division...but it really only matters what the guys in the locker room think.

One, I don't think that he will make the 53 man roster this season only returning kicks and punts. Two, I really believe that he could prove to be yet another weapon on offense in a variety of ways. I am as well. A guy with his agility and speed should be dangerous in the passing game. I'll also assert that if you can catch punts and kickoffs, you can catch anything.

pjfootballer Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Oh please NO with the nicknames already. Redskins. That's it. Leave it alone already and let them play some actual games first. We're just bored right now. I like you am normally against nicknames, but all they're doing is working out on their own in Waco. No big deal. Does this make RG3 the Waco Kid?

kingdaddy Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Mark my words....we will beat the Saints in the opener. The Shanahans must feel like they just won a new Porsche and were told they can't drive it til September. They are gonna have some serious fun with RG lll running the show.
