    The Semi-Early Season Prediction Thread

    A quick shout out of congratulations to the Capitals for bringing Lord Stanley's cup to DC for the 1st time ever. Also to Bryce Harper for winning the Home Run Derby at the All-Star Game, which was also a blast to see being held at Nationals Park. Also, life has again gotten in the way of my...

    Same As It Ever Was...: Post-Draft Assessment

    I personally didn't do nearly enough homework on draft candidates that I would have felt comfortable giving out where I had players slotted, so I went with Dan Shonka and his Ourlads grades. Dan and his team are former scouts and I've chatted with him occasionally on Twitter so I feel good...

    Same As It Ever Was...: Post-Draft Assessment

    So, if you don't feel like reading a long article on the draft, here's a quick summary via anecdote: I had to call my former employers the other day for some information and wound up talking to a former co-worker who follows the 'Skins. He asked me what I thought of the draft (back then I was...

    Same As It Ever Was: Pre-Draft Scouting Report on Kevin Hogan

    Me as well. Generally, I think Ourlads is generally good with their evaluations. At least I hope they continue to be, the guides are $30.00........

    The True Value of Su'a Cravens

    So, want to know how much Su'a Cravens is really worth to his new team in terms of value? Oh sure, we know what the trade was that went down. Washington gets: Denver's 4th (109), 5th (142) and 5th (163) and a conditional 2020 6th rd. pick (???) Denver gets: Washington's 4th (113), 5th (149)...

    Who bought a Robert Griffin III Jerseys

    I'm digging the 80th throwbacks, but right now the only active player I'm interested in getting a jersey for is London Fletcher.

    Is Tannehill a reach at #6?

    He's a reach at six. Not polished, is inconsistent at times and now has a broken foot to boot. That said, most QBs are reaches based on available prospects on the board but that's what you have to do at times to get the guy you want to lead your team. Last year many of the teams reached on...

    Okay, Who Goes?

    Hightower will be back in 2012. He's still the best blocking RB of the four RBs on the roster: Hightower, Helu, Royster and Torain. Expect him to battle Royster for the #2 spot and for 3rd down snaps. I would expect to see Hightower on 3rd downs if he re-signs with the 'Skins. He is a FA in...

    Blognostications: 2011 - Week 12 @ Seattle Seahawks

    Thanks for the feedback everyone. Wish it could have been a bit more optimistic but this is a real battered team that's not there......yet. I I think it will get pretty loud Sunday. I watched the Ravens/Seahawks game and while they can't spoil the 'Skins season, it was a near playoff atmosphere...

    Cowboys Vs. Redskins Predict The Score

    27-21 Skins. No Austin, Bryant is questionable so is Jones. Romo will play but is hurt. Skins have an opportunity to beat Dallas, they must take advantage of it. Run the ball down their throats and PAP to Armstrong, Moss, Cooley and Davis all night.

    Supplemental Draft Possibilities

    No to Pryor. Didn't think he was that great at Ohio St. and with the recruiting issues....pass. Was talking to a scout on twitter and suggested that Pryor should go UFL and develop for a future down the road in the NFL. He said that he didn't think Pryor would ever make it in the NFL and that...

    2010: Redskins v. Lions Top 10 Exciting Games

    I wish it wasn't. 2010 combined with Zorn's ultimate fail in 2009 and it's pretty bad.

    Grade Round 1

    B+ Addressed the OLB spot opposite of Orakpo with a blue collar, hard working kid that loves football. Not splashy but a solid contributor. Gaining the 2nd round pick really makes this move stand out. Only concern is whether Kerrigan can become a true 3-4 OLB or will he struggle like Andre...

    First Annual BGO Draft Prediction Competition

    Congrats BB. Totally whiffed on my picks.....

    First Annual BGO Draft Prediction Competition

    Sent. My picks more or less hinge on a trade in the 1st. If that happens, I think people will be very happy based on my guesses. Skins would address QB, DE, NT, OLB, OG, OT, RB, CB and WR in this scenario.
