NewCliche21 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 I don't know if I'm more disappointed in the injury or in people suggesting Hardy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSilverMaC Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 It's not that's gotta be a huge mental blow for him. I think coming off the previous one that you'd expect a failure from the one that already tore, not the one that was healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xameil Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 that's gotta be a huge mental blow for him. I think coming off the previous one that you'd expect a failure from the one that already tore, not the one that was healthy. Actually I think it's common for the other one to go. When you train to come back from an injury you put more strain on the healthy ligament or tendon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dchogs Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 pardon my french, but ****! gutted for the player, disappointed at the lost potential for the team, and moving on to the next guy up. the nfl is a brutal business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Man, just when i feel good about the team going forward.. another gut punch. This is when Scotty earns his money. (we need warp drive now, Mr. Scott!) He found us starters off the scrapheap last year. time to get to work. But.. after the 2015 camp's bloodbath of injuries, i am watching. The bug tends to hit us hard with lower leg injuries in non-contact situations. Am i wrong in wondering if the training staff or conditioning program needs some work? ~Bang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanguard Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Maybe because he beat the **** out of his GF then on his next team under PR scrutiny and image repair he thought it would be a good idea to decorate his face with tribal war paint, show up late to team meetings and practices, party too much and get into fights with teammates. Still, I'd sign him. He's getting a vet min deal too. If he acts up one time, he's released and his NFL career is over Okay. Relax. I don't keep up with the personal lives of every player. Thanks for the info though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanburgerBum Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Absolutely terrible news. Adam SchefterVerified account@AdamSchefter Not a repeat: Washington OLB Junior Galette tore his Achilles and is out for season, as @Rand_Getlin reported. How can this even happen before training camp practices start? Did it happen while he was just walking around? If so, he is just too brittle to be of much use. Well, it's a great opportunity for Houston Bates to step up to be quality depth and get some real playing time. And, I am certain Sua Cravens will be on the field a lot in passing situations.

Wildbunny Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 I know he's crazy but maybe we should bring in Hardy for a look. No way... You're the crazy guy here. Meh, whatever. Guy never played a down here, its hard for me to be emotionally invested. Personally I think this will open the door for Preston Smith to come in be a full time starter and dominate. Don't feel emotionally invested in Galette, he never played a down, but I feel sorry for the guy. At the same time, we've been dealing with injuries and without him last year, so I'm not completly at a loss right now. We'll make it through. Preston Smith, Trent... Whoever... I'm not even sure Galette will make it to IR or if he'll not be waived at some point. didnt Galette have a Redskins tattoo? He should look for an IR tatoo, at this rate, he'll be in competition with Bradford. It's not That's often how it happens, players tends to over compensate with the other knee to not give full effort from the injured one when they think they can go full speed, and bam the second one tears apart. That's casual. Sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD_washingtonredskins Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 I don't understand why Dwight Freeney is not an option for us I don't think a team with Kerrigan and Smith really should be making last-ditch moves like that. I think having Galette would have been great, but it's certainly also a luxury. I would imagine that McCloughan wasn't banking 100% on him being healthy given that he just missed all of 2015 with a pretty bad injury. My guess is that they are OK moving forward with last year's starters and hoping some depth emerges on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking bout Greg ****ing Hardy and bull****.Yeah, it sucks to lose a 12 sack guy, but Smith should be able to fill that right in. We've been talking about how deep the roster is. Here we go.

justice98 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Considering he literally did nothing for us, I can't say I'm fazed by this news. Whatever. The only part that bothers me is the timing, being it's right before camp. And presumably the roster building was under the idea he'd be here. Such is life in the NFL.

My guess is that they are OK moving forward with last year's starters and hoping some depth emerges on the roster.We got a lot of youth at OLB that could benefit from being around one the great pass rushers of his generation. Freeney would only be a part time player. He had 8 sacks in 11 games, and at a bargain price. Not like he would be a snap hog. Kerrigan and Smith would still be starting. At best, Galette woulda got 10-12 tops playing every down. People talk about Gallette like he was good for 15-18 sacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The opportunity cost of who we could have gotten these last two years instead of thinking we had something in hand kinda sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rufus T Firefly Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 I don't think we will ever see him play a down for the Redskins. ~Bang I don't know. If we give him a 5 year extension, I'd say we have about a 50-50 shot of seeing him make to opening day at least once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
