Redskins Cuts Thus Far:

Willie Jefferson, OLB
Cody Davis, OT
Ejiro Ederaine, ILB
Jeremy Harris, CB
Valdez Showers, WR
Dez Stewart, WR
Jarvis Turner, WR
Kelsey Young, RB
 
Again, no surprises here.

None of these players has played a down in the NFL as far as I can see.

The interesting situation is the offensive backfield where you can FEEL the team is going to make a move just as soon as some decent backs become available across the league during cut-downs.

Does Scot go with a younger draft pick or undrafted free agent he originally wanted to bring to Washington in April? Or does he go with a veteran who perhaps makes Cousins and Gruden more comfortable in 2016?

What differences do you see as the preseason is coming to an end? Will we sign any players that get released from other teams? Are there any remaining free agents that interest you? The new season is nearly upon us. BBQ hopes your offseason and summer has been fantastic. See you as we go along.

Hail To The Redskins!
 
Honestly, I would keep Paulson over Carrier, even before the injury. If blocking really was the reason for our running woes last year I think we should keep a blocking TE around.

I'm being realistic, not negative,
Please understand the stark difference.
The optimism surrounding Sudfeld is very premature.
A voice of reason and realism is in order, regarding the premature optimism of Sudfeld.
It's gone beyond optimism into utter predictions.
He has hardly proven himself thus far.
Let me ask you something : why are people so down on our running game and high on Sudfeld, when Robert Kelly has been even more impressive in preseason than Sudfeld ?

QBs are dropping like flies.

This very second, names like Geno Smith, Jason Campbell and Mike Vick are being thrown around in Minnesota.

Sudfeld makes the 53.
 
The average 2nd string QB in this league is absolute garbage. I don't think our own fans realize how lucky we are with McCoy.

Situations like with Dallas, the Vikings are why the Redskins are glad they have backup Colt McCoy. smart; style of O doesn't change, etc.

@johnkeim

Putting Suds on the PS would likely be the equivalent of releasing him for nothing in return. Now if you want to try to trade him for a 4th.....that's another conversation.

Oh, I'm not commenting on your stance, just your horrible pun. I don't see anything but developmental QB from Sudfeld so far. But the PUNS....:p
 
I dunno how we get a 4th for Suds, if we can great and I concur the backup qb's in the league have marginally gotten worse over the years. I think that might be due to college offenses being so drastically different from the nfl today, the development takes so long for these kids.

We couldn't even get a 4th rounder for Cousins, when he actually had NFL Regular Season game experience, with relative success !!
Realistically - and trade-wise - we get nothing higher than a 7th for Sudfeld.

They should consider Jason Campbell with the run game and OL they have. He could do well with them. vick and Smith? No!

Campbell just said he's not interested.

I'd go with Geno. He may suck, but he can run like Teddy and he fits their scheme. I'm guessing he'll be their guy.
