#Redskins NT Chris Baker dances provocatively in front of kickers to distract them before last kick attempt. Both nail FG. #skinscamp

I heard him get interviewed by Doc Walker when I was on my way to the gym this morning... he seems like he is ready to contribute and has a very good head on his shoulders.

But this is just hilarious...hahaha

Is it me, or does it seem like Brandon Banks has been killing it during camp. I am trying to tell people that this dude can be effective. I know he isn't taking any hits, but I think he can make plays for us outside of special teams. :2cents:

Couldnt agree more. If Banks carries this over during preseason there is no way he doesnt make this team. He has been killing it since camp began. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say he makes this team. No doubt.

I curious to see how Banks does in these preseason games when there are other guys out there looking to put a lick on him. He's far exceeded my expectations so far. Hopefully he can keep that up and help this team.

I think he will continue to impress. The guy is just talented, no matter how short he is.

Don't think that provocatively is a proper modifier for any dancing a 300+ lbs man does. It is technically correct.

It can't be any worse than the 400 pound guys who dance in the stands after a TD with no shirt. Shudder......

Seems like this is a different team this year to me. The players seem hungry and committed to the team this year like nothing short of the Super Bowl would satisfy their hunger. Makes me excited as a fan for this year to start if the players are this hungry I see good things in our future. I just hope everyone stays healthy and gives RG3 a chance to learn and make plays. Here's to finally being a contender in the NFL.

@Redskins

#Redskins HC Mike Shanahan addresses fans and says this team has more depth and talent than any he's coach in DC #skinscamp

@granthpaulsen

Mike Shanahan to the fans: "I guarantee you, with the depth and competition we have, you're going to be very proud of this team this year."

@dshif

Shanahan just addressed the crowd, players handing out game balls to fans as a gift.

@Redskins

As part of Fan Appreciation Day, all 90 players are handin signed gameday footballs to fans. 110 balls passed out in total. #

There is no way they handed out 110 balls, i was there, the most balls they handed was probably a dozen to 20 balls. Lol

In either case, I think scary might be more appropriate. But since provocatively basically means in order to provoke in some way, I guess it would be technically right even for your 400 pound friends:)

I dunno. He said we could make the playoffs with John Beck as our quarterback...

Didn't a lot of people? Even people on here said "Give Beck a chance and let him prove he's a starting QB" Well all you had to do was watch his Miami gametape. He's 0-7 with no passing touchdowns for a reason.

In practice/training camp vs teammates is one thing. Vs opponents that want to do serious damage to you, its something completely different. I fear that he's just a tiny dude thats going to get mauled out there.

We've been fearing that for two seasons now...hasn't happened.

Do you guys think Briscoe is going to make this team? We have so many WRs competiting I don't know who has the edge

Right now it feels like Austin and Robinson are on the outside looking in, with Banks and Armstrong most likely taking those last two spots. We haven't seen enough of Briscoe to even slightly gauge his chances yet...but he's young (22 years old) and has good physical skills...will be hard to just let him go and just believe that Armstrong won't repeat last season or that Banks' size won't be an issue at WR.
