tibbidoe Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I just puked in my mouth a little. There was a bunch of ESers speculating as such and it generally isn't hard to do so when you basically have a .33% chance to get it right no matter who you think will be the no. 1 back. My position is still that there won't truly be a no. 1 back this season and we'll have a nice, productive, rotation there. But don't worry, I won't pull a "russel" on everyone here and make sure I rub that in if it turns out to be true. Agreed, unless one of the three really shines in PS games and makes it impossible for Coach to take him out (as starter). @NYCSkinsFans Tanard Jackson, Jordan Black practice for first time http://fb.me/1T84KVCF0 @BurgundyBlog "Severe groin injury" for my boy Lance Lewis probably means he'll be lucky to make the practice squad. Bad break for a nice UDFA. @BurgundyBlog AAA will need to bounce back quick from this shoulder sprain. Probably can't afford to give up those reps. @BurgundyBlog More and more intrigued by Chris Baker, who apparently came in possessed. Seems to have inside track on reserve DL spot. Where is Neild? @BurgundyBlog And I was really hoping someone would step up and displace Barnes but who knows? Maybe swapping positions w/ Hall will jumpstart them both. @ChrisWesseling #Redskins LT Trent Williams has been "the most impressive player in camp." http://bit.ly/QyufME Stonewalling Brian Orapko. @CBSWashDC Trent Williams Starring In Camp http://cbsloc.al/PpRQb1 @Rich_Tandler Anthony Armstrong is going to have his injured shoulder X-rayed and WR Lance Lewis out 1-2 weeks. #Redskins http://bit.ly/QktDIe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jflow78 Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 HA! Look at what Shanny just said...@granthpaulsen Shanahan: Kevin Barnes has great speed & length and is better on the outside jamming people. Slot "didn't work out as well as I would like." Yeah, I guess it doesn't hurt my ego at all to have a pro coach confirm my opinion is the same as his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Califan007 The Constipated Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 ESPN 980 @ESPNRadio980 Chris Cooley said his circus catch over Keenan Robinson was absolutely a catch, ruled so by officials, defense didnt agree. Great route. ---------- Post added August-2nd-2012 at 04:30 PM ---------- NFL Bits @NFLBits RG3 on Washington Redskins' O-line: 'I trust whoever's out there' http://ow.ly/1lNRvy ---------- Post added August-2nd-2012 at 04:36 PM ---------- Tandler tidbits: http://www.realredskins.com/rich-tandlers-real-redsk/2012/08/thursday-practice-report-cooley-makes-a-play.html —Evan Royster runs a little better than Helu inside; he just seems to be able to find the hole more quickly. But Helu isn’t that far behind Royster when it comes to the inside zone game and he’s well superior to Royster running to the outside. Every day that goes by with Tim Hightower watching the bulk of practice from the sideline makes it more and more likely that the battle for the starting job will come down to those two.—Meriweather continued to be active, crowding the box on some plays and dropping back deep in coverage on others. From what I’ve seen, he’s better off in the former role than in the latter. He moves forward much better than he moves backwards. —That 20 pounds that Lorenzo Alexander lost is helping him in coverage. He was stride for stride with Chris Cooley as the tight end went down the sideline. To be sure, Cooley never was a speed demon and he’s lost at least half a step but it’s still impressive to see Alexander stick with him in space. —Hurt with a good effort on one play, scraping off of his man at the line and getting another block off in the second level. —In what was the play of the day, Rex Grossman rolled right and threw back to the left for Cooley, who had some separation near the sideline. Cooley dove for the ball and, according to the referee who was right there, he came up with the pass. Although the catch may not have survived a replay review it was still an entertaining play. —This just in—RG3 likes to throw the ball to Pierre Garçon. They had good timing on a quick sideline pass for a first down. —This also just in—RG3 is still a rookie. A few plays later Kevin Barnes jumped in front of a pass intended for Banks and picked it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADF Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Schuler wasn't Casserly's pick. Casserly wanted to draft Trent Dilfer---not worlds difference, but still, he wasn't on board with Schuler. Schuler was Norv Turner's baby and project. He thought he saw Troy Aikman in Schuler. He was wrong. Does he blame anyone for David Carr? @granthpaulsen @evansilva Also notable @Russellmania980 was only guy pre-camp saying Evan Royster would be #Redskins No. 1 back.

Ruled catch by official ---------- Post added August-2nd-2012 at 01:05 PM ---------- Grant Paulsen @granthpaulsen Chris Cooley just had a phenomenal diving catch, fully extended with Keenan Robinson draped on him. #Redskins From everything I have read Cooley has been healthy all camp, and playing well with catches like this...... I just don't see why so many people are so eager to trade him away, when what we would get in return would be no where near the productivity...... There are still a few people around here Chris that are still routing for you. Keep ballin Caos!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCClybun Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Does he blame anyone for David Carr? Casserly was between a rock and a hard place there. Horrible quarterback class, you're an expansion franchise that needs to have a face for the future. Bad pick, without a doubt. But, he also drafted Andre Johnson, DeMeco Ryans, Mario Williams, and Owen Daniels. He wasn't all bad. Wasn't a great GM, but I think he has a better eye than people give him credit for. As for his "I'd take Luck over RG3 10 times out of 10" comment, pretty sure you'd see a lot of front office personnel who would say that. I know he's our guy, but I don't think Casserly was badmouthing him, and he's been very complimentary towards the fans, the players we have now and towards our coaches. So yeah. Not that bad.

He gets the short end of the stick went it comes to being a rookie QB.
