Reaper Skins Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 And who could forget Keith Eloi and the infamous pool video. Championship! http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/06/08/AR2009060802842.html Or how about when we bet on Mike Williams being able to lose over 100 pounds, become a starting lineman, and regain his first round status in just 1 offseason. Solid front office decision making there "It's an audacious experiment. Take a former No. 4 overall draft pick, one who hasn't taken a snap in an NFL game since New Years Day of 2006, and watch his weight drop from 450 to 342 -- then count on him to be a possible solution along an aging offensive line. Yet front office chief Vinny Cerrato was so bullish on Williams in the spring that he didn't draft an offensive lineman. The team then released Jansen in May, essentially making the right tackle job a two-man battle between Williams and Stephon Heyer, a third-year player who went undrafted but has started 12 games in two seasons. "I find it hard to believe that after almost three years that I can still be able to do this," Williams said." https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/sports/The-Redskins-Former-450-Pound-Man-52425317.html https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/jun/28/a-weighty-matter/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Tater Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 In 2015, the big quote from Scott was not that we were going to be winners but that teams would know they played us. Since the second half of the 2016 season, I feel we are going back to that team you could smack in the mouth early and pretty much be certain to dominate. It is like a child that expects to win easy and when they find out that they can't, they pout. The loss to the Giants in the final game last year encapsulates it. After getting no traction in the run game, they pop a big run and it looked to me like we just quit at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a quote early on in Snyder's tenure where some reporter said that watching opposing teams play the Redskins on Sunday was like "a pack of wolves being unleashed on pampered house pets." I don't think we're back to that point yet, but sure doesn't seem like we're trending in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skins island connection Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 My word this list is depressing. Its akin to me and the lottery; every once in awhile i'll get lucky and win my 2 bucks back, but for the most part I'm just giving my money away. Personally the Redskins draft should be re-named to the Redskins Roulette or the Redskins Crap-Shoot. It resembles it much more accurately...

Wyvern Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 This thread has really got me looking hard at the full history -- especially the Skins poor record with running backs they drafted. For a franchise with historically tough, dangerous running backs -- the Skins have found/developed very few during Snyder's tenure. Davis was drafted before Snyder, Portis was a trade. Most others (Manuel White, anyone) didn't stand out Thompson and Morris were the few clear gems. Morris was the classic Skins tough "Riggo-like" grinding RB, and even so, the Skins let him go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsFTW Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 How can anybody forget Colt Brennan. Several hundred page thread on a dude who never once took a snap. Oh and Sultan McCullough and Marko Mitchell. How about the list of DONE guys that we brought in "just in case" like Larry Johnson, Shawn Alexander, Willie Parker, Christian Fauria, Adrian Murrell, Byron Chamberlain, Nolan Harrison, Irving Fryar, James Francis, Jacquez Green, Warrick Holdman, McNugget, Joey Galloway, Tyronne Drakeford, Everette Brown, Greg Toler, Cullen Jenkins, on and on and on.

Darrell Green Fan Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Colt Brennan was a 6th round pick. Just because some fans jumped on board that's really no reason to list him with the likes of Shuler, Griffin etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max21 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I don’t really think Colt Brennan deserves to be on the list, IIRC he was one of the best QBs during the preseason whatever year that was but never really got his chance due to injury. Still leads the FBS with touchdowns in a season and I think top 10 in passing yards in the FBS. I’d say Malcom Kelly over him. Jason Taylor, Adam Arculeta.
