  1. Redskins Insider: Brian Orakpo’s injury not serious

    Agreed. Let him rest and allow his body to heal.
  2. A couple of defensive concerns

    Not to go off-topic, but I'm more concerned about the way the OL played last night. RG3 will have a tough time progressing if he doesn't have a few seconds to get the ball off every now and then.
  3. Redskins Sign OT Tony Moll

    I'm pretty sure Winston never wanted to come here so that's a moot point. Bell, on the other hand, may have and you raise a good point there. Nevertheless, next offseason (once again) OL is going to need to be a top priority for us. Too bad we can't start drafting BPA and have to continue...
  4. Skins Quotes 8/4: M. Shanahan

    Likewise, I'm hoping Gettis turns out to be a solid contributor.
  5. Wash Post.com: Observations From Day 2

    Wow. Not happy to hear that. I was really hoping for big things with Jenkins.
  6. Skins Quotes 7/27: M. Shanahan

    He sure does seem to love Royster. Am interested in seeing if/how he progresses this year.
  7. Wash Post.com: Observations From Day 2

    I thought we HAD shored up our interior OL to some degree taking Josh LeRibeus with this year's 3rd round draft pick. How is he looking out there? How about Jarvis Jenkins coming off of IR? He looked awesome in preseason last year before the injury.
  8. If our defense is so great......

    I hear you, but as FTS said, lightning rarely strikes twice. Chances are, we can't necessarily bank on a mid-low-undrafted LB being able to reach London's level of acheivement. Either way, it's what we got now.
  9. If our defense is so great......

    The team should always always always be looking to improve DL in the draft. That's part of the reason why the Giants have done well in recent years. Good DL depth. So even if Cofield is doing OK, why not improve?
  10. If our defense is so great......

    I hear you on both counts. I think cover corner should be priority 1 or 2 in next years' draft (we just will have to roll with what we have this year). Isn't the LB we took this year suppsed to be London's replacement? Honestly, I always feel a little concerned about relying on a mid-round...
  11. If our defense is so great......

    Agree with safety and NT. Cover corner would also be nice as long as folks give up on the idea of a "shut-down corner", since these are becoming less and less common and certainly NOT a prerequisite for a championship team.
  12. Fine, Upstanding Citizen Brandon Meriweather...

    You raise good and relevant points regarding Merriweather's character issues but my understanding is that his poor play in Chicago had more to do with the system they ran rather than his ability (and furthermore, that the system in NE where he was successful is somewhat similar to our own)
  13. RG3 Tonight Show Appearance

    Not to derail the thread, but my biggest concerns aside from the injury factor are: 1) Ability to consistently throw under NFL-speed pressure IN THE POCKET 2) RG3's ability to hit short and intermediate throws to receivers in stride (something we've been lacking and something that all elite...
  14. Marshall Faulk compares RG3 to Mark Sanchez

    Differences include (among other things): 1) RG3 has more potential and better QB skills than Sanchez had coming into his rookie year. I think most folks felt the Jets reached for Sanchez and that his one good year at USC on a team stacked with talent made him a bit of a wild-card. RG3...
  15. Redskins Sign 4th Rd. Pick LB Keenan Robinson

    ^^If he just turns out to be a solid ST player and quality depth, that wouldn't be so bad. Like I said earlier, we should make it a habit of taking a gamble in the high rounds (1-4) each draft on a potential starting LB given the kind of D we run. That way it increases the chances we'll "hit" on...
  16. RG3 Tonight Show Appearance

    No controversy at all. Just was wondering what you meant. I think it'll be ok - could be wrong but he seems like the kind of guy that sticks by his decisions and now he has made his decision to be in the NFL. I know he's been quoted as saying he wanted to try law school but he can clearly do...
  17. Redskins Sign 4th Rd. Pick LB Keenan Robinson

    The goal every year in the draft should be DL, LB, and "offensive weapon" - whether that means WR, RB, or TE. Unless we end up with gaping holes anywhere else, the team should maintain in part by bolstering depth with starter-quality talent at LB since they are so important for a 3-4 D. I'm...
  18. RG3 Tonight Show Appearance

    I'm not sure where you're going with this, but I'm pretty sure if he's successful in the NFL, he isn't going to leave early because life is short. Too much fame, money, etc to leave any bit on the table - especially if he's passionate about the game.
  19. Predict the 2012 NFC East Standings

    This looks reasonable to me although 8-8 is the ceiling for the Skins this year, in my opinion, since they are starting a rookie at QB. Also would think 9-7 could earn the Cowboys a wildcard spot but that Romo will likely fall apart in the playoffs like he always does. Eagles could make it...
  20. Dopey May Strike Again?

    I wonder if this is a sign that he's beginning to feel the heat. Certainly, trading away two first rounders and this year's second rounder to move up and take a QB speaks to that...
