DC9 Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 Yep great job DC, my favorite thread each year. It's easy to update the OP, you guys are the ones who drive the discussion and put the updates in here for me to edit the OP and the title. I think we'll let Gallen or JamesMadisonSkins take it on next year. They are both ready for primetime. If they don't want to I'll absolutely do it again. I just don't want to be THAT guy that hogs the cool thread opportunities and I think this is three or four years in a row now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC9 Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 DJax, Aldrick, RGIII and Fogg should beat anybody in the 4X relay. Swift is also known as the nasty nickel. Last year it was 57-91-72-98 or some variation of that. Didn't see it all that much, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice_of_Reason Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Guys, I created a "Wish we had gotten that guy!" thread. This was suggested several pages ago to track they guys who we didn't get. Here's a link: http://es.redskins.com/topic/378900-the-i-wish-we-had-gotten-that-guy-thread/ I've gotten some of the names that people threw out in this thread already. You can go to that thread and toss out a few more. If folks are interested, I'll update the OP with relevant information throughout next season.

jflow78 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 WR David Gettis was cut today according to the WP http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/football-insider/wp/2014/05/12/redskins-cut-wide-receiver-david-gettis/ When I read the WP link for the article, it said, "Redskins cut Gettis" I almost crapped myself. I was hoping Gettis would make the final roster at guard, then I read that it was the WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redskindan07 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I wonder if Gettis ever fully recovered from his injury. Early on in Carolina he was a good player with potential. It seems as if he must just be a shell of what he was back then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallen5862 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Rams waived RB Daryl Richardson. Someone was going to be the odd man out in St. Louis' crowded backfield after the Rams spent the No. 75 overall pick on Tre Mason, but it was expected to be Isaiah Pead, not Richardson. Playing through turf toe, Richardson was dreadful as a sophomore after opening the season as the Rams' de facto starter, managing only 215 yards on 69 carries (3.11 YPC). Just one year removed from a successful rookie campaign as a change-of-pace back, Richardson is unlikely to make it through waivers unclaimed.

skinny21 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Williams Lauvao Mcglynn Long Moses Skins possible new OL for 2014/15 I keep forgetting about McGlynn. I could definitely see him beating out Lichtensteiger. RG is a total toss up for me - even Hurt and Chester have a chance there. Honestly though, they've all been so underwhelming (not all their fault) that Long has a good shot. Moses could win it, but Polumbus showed improvement last year so I think he's got a good chance of holding the spot for now. BTW, I'm not disagreeing with you, just tacking on my 2cents Swift is also known as the nasty nickel. Last year it was 57-91-72-98 or some variation of that. Didn't see it all that much, though. I wonder why that is though? Haslett's didn't trust/like it? Personnel? Shanny sticking his nose in? If (one of) the latter two, maybe we run it with Murph in there.

smithmal Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 According to Cooley's analysis of Long yesterday on "The Drive" he thought that Long had the potential to become a "B" lineman. He also thought initially that Long would be a reserve/backup for the next year or so until he learns the ropes. After that he might graduate to be similar to a Lauvao type lineman (which is odd as Cooley is not big on Lauvao's skill set/aggression). Cooley did emphasize that he felt that Long had a sound foundation and seemed to be quite "coachable." The big concern though is that he's been out of action for quite some time due to his knee injury so he could be a bit rusty out of the gate. He believed that Moses had a higher ceiling and could, if he applied himself (which is the big "if" with Moses) be an "A" lineman. smithmal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thekyle1591 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 I am personally really high on Long. Think he can be a very good starter if he improves his pass blocking fundamentals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence why your boy rates the turnover higher than the sack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence why your boy rates the turnover higher than the sack. Fair enough I guess, I can certainly see it being beneficial playing with a lead. Seems like there would be more to it than that though. I mean, wouldn't you use it on the occasional 3rd and long? And who's my boy? Haslett? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKKI8 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Ourlads draft site does a GREAT job with there section on NFL depth charts. They update it pretty much every day and if a player is cut or added they usually have it up to date right away. My point in this is that they still have Bruce Campbell listed as backup LT for the Redskins. I was wondering if anyone knows if he was at minicamp or what the deal is with him. I heard he failed his physical and then visited the Giants but that was the last I heard anything about him. I just wondered if it is a rare mistake on Ourlads part or if Campbell is with the Redskins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bedlamVR Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 One name I was kind of surprised was still out there ws Pat Angerer . Then I realized he is comming off microfracture on his knee and is still not a go but we brought Spernser in for a look see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRobi21 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Would love to give JB another shot. Such a good guy. Really a bummer for him going down on the opening kickoff of the year his rookie year. Damn near tragic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlvinWaltonIsMyBoy Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Would love to give JB another shot. Such a good guy. Really a bummer for him going down on the opening kickoff of the year his rookie year. Damn near tragic. I liked the kid and thought he could develop into a solid player. Anytime a rookie is on the 53 on opening day says a lot. I don't care if he was just on special teams. Remember he posted a solid forty at the combine and he likes to lay the wood. Good luck young lad! Edited to add a low of 4.38 at the combine. A little better than solid. Get 'em Bernstine! I am officially anointing him as the player I am pulling for the hardest to make the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonez3 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Are the Eagles financially responsible for any money tonDJax this year. Not cap hit, but actual money. Basically, did they pay him any money once they released him? I know they have a 6 mil cap hit. Need to settle a bar bet. Sources if possible Sorry for redundancy... My opposition apparently has NFL sources. Not much available on interwebz. Can someone clarify if Philly so much as cut him a equipment stipend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
