SWFLSkins Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 John Keim @john_keim 20s Sharpton was ahead of Akeem Jordan before his injury. Now, if Jordan is OK (knee a sprain MCL, not serious) then that bodes well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when you have been the guy holding the bag! Redskins Gold Pants @SkinsGoldPants 1m Browns release Dion Lewis. Wouldn't be shocked if they grabbed Chris. Thompson or Royster for Kyle.

zoony Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Too lazy to start a thread, but when was the last time we saw the Redskins cut a 6th round draft pick that looked decent? That is an incredibly encouraging sign. In the Vinny years draft picks were untouchable... You can't make Vinny look bad. And Shanahans ego was too large to even contemplate that he got a pick wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RG3Hunna Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Annual Punt Rant I have long been irritated with teams refusing to corner kick. not even once a game, nor after repeated downing fails, kicking the ball into the endzone time and time again. Straight towards the guy that may break our back with a return TD. Because we wanted to give a teamer you barely know a chance to down it. The coverage guy looking directly backwards to try to see the ball as he runs down the field, is worth a laugh. An oblong ball made of pig skin, is not easy to down, despite all the practice they can do. The punter usually just nails it into the endzone anyway. Fails prevail most of the time. Net 20 rules the day. Sigh. Punting. its all the guy does. I refuse to believe he cannot aim for upfield of that pylon with some effectiveness. I flat out refuse to think a coverage guy cannot still try to down the ball on angled kicks, and can even use the sideline to his advantage. Flying downfield, the players can look over a shoulder to locate the ball as he runs down the field maybe a little easier, like a WR running a deep cross. Sure a punter will get the ball to bounce straight up and easily downed a few times a year. The fans go crazy, best punter ever. All the special teams coaches from the 70 80's and 90's that angle kicked couldn't be wrong. Sure punters are gym freaks and are bigger and stronger, and can kick farther than then, but I refuse to believe they lost the ability to angle. We use to try and corner kick religiously when Danny Smith was our special teams coach and all that lead to was returns by the offense, penalties when our kicker would let the ball bounce out of bounds and kickers being out of a job when they would eventually lose confidence and fans would lose patience. Just not worth the risk so we just tell kickers to kick it out of the endzone and start from the 20 yard line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWFLSkins Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Seastrunk cut?!?!?!?!? pic.twitter.com/IlhWEMfwp4 Mike Jones @MikeJonesWaPo 1m Thomas could wind up returning on practice squad if he goes unclaimed. Same for Minnifield. Rich Tandler @Rich_TandlerCSN 35s Thomas could go to PS. With foot situation unlikely to be claimed. Maybe this is why we heard little about the examination.

Dont Taze Me Bro Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 We have enough rbs we don't need any rb especially one that is past his prime Right, because 700-800 yards and 7 TDs (last year) wouldn't be a steal for the 3rd string position.

Koolblue13 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Hopefully PT gets on the PS and gets healthy. Come on Akeem Davis! If AD makes it, I'll be 2 for 2 with Redd making it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am so incredibly tired of our "what ifs" and "might be's". Cut these hanger ons. We have actual starters all over our roster and depth now. Good ridence and I wish them all the best careers.

kleese Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 The Redskins chose the guy who outperformed the rest and didn't worry about draft status. Redd was better than the other guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWFLSkins Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 John Keim @john_keim 1m Per @NBCdianna silas redd will make the roster. after cutting Seastrunk, Thompson/Royster, this makes sense. Reddd had strong summer. Mike Jones @MikeJonesWaPo 1m For now, Trenton Robinson and Akeem Davis are in behind Meriweather, Clark and Rambo. Meriweather, however, won't be on roster first 2 weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
