The Tris Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 This was the signing that needed to happen this week, to add depth at a shallow unit. Seems we are going with young guy who can play teams route as opposed to aging vet route. http://www.carolinagrowl.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=565:rookie-s-pugh-turning-heads-with-his-play-and-leadership-ability&catid=1:articles Found this article hilarious. Good refresher about how one year's camp wonders are next year's roster casualties. Good to keep in mind about guys like Crawford, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murphs56 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 anybody have a report on this guy and what he brings to the table? If he's a good special teams player, that's fine then. That's what Bernstine was really going to give us this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what Bernstine was really going to give us this year 24 years old from Texas A&M. Had 27 starts in college and 3 starts with the Panthers over the last 2 years. (info via @grantpaulsen on twitter) A development project. Hopefully the Redskins already had their list in place due to the S situation and this guy was near the top.

GaryGreenMonk Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Alright now what are we doing about a long snapper lol the bigger question is how are we going to handle the roster spot for another LS. we either have to IR Sundberg.. or we have to cut someone to make room for another LS. if we IR Sundberg, the new rules allow him to be brought back after week 8. But you can only do that with 1 player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santana_89 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Chris Russell@Russellmania980 So #Redskins have signed a S to replace Bernstine in @JordanPugh29 - they are not bringing back the "Red Snapper". He retired/back issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BraveWarrior Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Did he really say "I'm ready are you" (or in non-****ter speak "I'm ready. Are you?") Yes, I am ready for you to add depth to our secondary until we get all our safeties back. Then I'll be ready to see you either beat Reed out for his job or go back to the unemployment line.
