Ooooh, nice one!

 

[Knightingale]

Ouch! I was looking forward to seeing what Gallette and Kerrigan could do

 

[Snydershrugged]

This Gallette injury really bums me out.

 

[MattFancy]

Said updated January 2016. Also that Kirk threw a td in all 16 games in addition to taking us to paloffs

Yeah they were updated at the end of last season.

These look to be their most recent rankings: Patriots, Panthers lead post free agency NFL Power Rankings

How do I know this? The Cowboys are #13 and we're #17. Why? Because of course ESPN would have it that way.

 

[TomE]

Yep, these guys are right on top of it with their analysis

(from the link posted by Matt)

2. Carolina Panthers

2015 record: 15-1
Voting results: 874 points
Post-Super Bowl ranking: No. 1

Stats & Information's take: The Panthers went 15-1 last season and made the Super Bowl, and there hasn't been much turnover this offseason. Punter Brad Nortman is the only player who has signed elsewhere.

Don't know what this means (most likely nothing) but it was on the Skins dot com.....

While the injury could potentially keep Galette out for an entire season, Gruden is confident the 28-year-old can make a complete recovery like others who have battled a similar situation

and Gruden did go on to say that he's seen others make full recoveries over time and go on to play a couple more seasons.... don't think it will happen this year for JR tho.... dammit.

 

[MattFancy]

So sounds like they're mulling signing Greg Hardy. Thoughts?

 

[Chris]

Our 8 man linebacker package will be interesting.

 

[Elephant]

How are we supposed to digest the news that a player like Greg Hardy should be given another chance, after he showed nothing in Dallass that would warrant a nod in his favor. He exhibited much of the behavior, in Dallass, that suggests he is the same guy.

Our need that great? I hope not.

 

[Om]

Yeah, I figured this morning we'd end up talking Hardy at some point ... put me down for a strong no. Dude's wrong.

Sheehan saying on ESPN 980 there's solid word the Skins are NOT going down that road.

Nothin but love, B.

I think we've found Boone's new avatar.

The only thing I can think of is that Joe Barry really does believe in Kendall Reyes and Ziggy Hood to be rotational players on the DL in 2015.

He did get in on the decision to draft Reyes in San Diego and coached him for his first couple of years in the NFL when Reyes looked to be an ascending player.

The obvious missing piece here is Scot McCloughan's actions in the draft to basically ignore the DL for a second season in a row.

This was a draft where DL came off the board in bunches in rounds 1-3 and yet the Redskins decided to take the rover, Cravens, and Kendall Fuller a cornerback after the Redskins signed Josh Norman and Greg Toler to go along with Bashaud Breeland.

If Reyes can contribute and our #5 pick becomes a regular it may be enough to get the DL through.

But if not we are looking at some mismatches up front this coming season.

 

[Om]

Wait, what?

You say they only report today---actual CAMP starts tomorrow?

A technicality.

But we're on it.

"Redskins Training Camp 2016" in THIS many days:

Couldn't agree more.

Sure the guy is talented... But for me it's a strong no.

I like the direction this team is going in, and love him or hate him (and I was a supporter) having RGIII on the team over the last couple of years created a fair bit of disruption. I was so relieved when we cut that circus loose and we started to go about the business of just being a professional team. I truly think we're seeing the ship right itself and start sailing in the right direction rather than just catching the occasional lucky breeze. Last year felt different at last, like we were heading somewhere.

While we may need his talent, I don't think we need the circus he'll bring along with him, and the potential disruption to the team. Lets just keep putting a team together that is professional, the rest will (hopefully) sort itself out.

 

[Bulldog]

Hardy has emotional issues. It's not as simple as a guy making a mistake and then moving forward.

His outbursts and anger point to more deep seated problems than guys that have a DUI or get banned for a supplement.

Days left until the season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
