[quote=JoeRedskin;935939]I agree. I think he had the ability to be every bit the "playmaker' that Banks supposedly is.

Show me something in the regular season Brandon. I really, really want to be wrong about you.[/quote]

I agree on Banks completely. He pulls something out his arse every August to save his job and then it's a season full of muffs and almost doing something. That was fine when we had no talent a couple years ago but now that we have to cut promising young players to make room for him I am not on board. I would have preferred to let Robinson have a shot at the punt return job and save a roster spot for a player not as one dimensional...

Re: Official Redskins Final Cuts Thread
 

Five cuts left to be made based on the first page list.

It's looking like Briscoe, A. Robinson and Banks make the team as 5th, 6th & 7th WR's.

Again I ask, who's left that was open for debate? White?

[quote=SmootSmack;935935]Haven't been able to confirm that we got him for Armstrong, but I know (and some others here know as well) that the Redskins and Dolphins have been talking Slaton trade for a couple of weeks and the Dolphins were asking for much more than just AA up until as recently as Monday[/quote]

Yup, I can confirm that 100%.

[quote=Chico23231;935942]there is no need for 6 safeties, when we are going with 1 depth tackle, Black, who hasnt played ball for a year. we should be very concerned[/quote]

Yeah I really hope Compton doesn't get picked up elsewhere, he looked good, as good if not better than Black

Re: Official Redskins Final Cuts Thread
 

Like the Slaton move...him and Helu can handle the change of pace role and Morris & Royster can handle the primary RB role. Good depth...

Not even that. It's really just Tampa Bay. I'm hating that team more and more now.

Yeah, I could see someone like Arizona or T-Bay snatching up Compton. Hope that's not the case. Then again, he could be this year's Selvish Capers.

Re: Official Redskins Final Cuts Thread
 

How hard is it to trade the two, Dolphins, quit being such a pain in the ass and trade him to us already. Heres armstrong. Theres slaton. BAM. Trade done.

You lost me a little bit. Are you saying that Banks performs well only against T-Bay?

Compton looked well beyond what Capers ever did in preseason.

Correct. That and Danny Smith kissing Mike's ass all night (from what I've heard).

Re: Official Redskins Final Cuts Thread
 

Side note:

John Beck MADE the Texans as their 3rd QB...wow

Re: Official Redskins Final Cuts Thread
 

[quote=CultBrennan59;935940]Great trade Armstrong for Slaton. It helps out both teams. Now Slaton can return kicks which means bye bye Banks...? (Wishful thinking)

But really 6 safeties and 4 CBs..what happens when we play teams that go to 5Wide sets...Good luck![/quote]

Love the move. It wasn't long ago when Slaton was a stud RB for Houston. Injury and Arian Foster made everyone forget about him. If he can regain his form, we made a great move.

I didn't think Armstrong was going to make the team anyway. We're making some awesome moves trading players we'll probably cut for value. I love this front office.

Re: Official Redskins Final Cuts Thread
 

Chris Baker Released


...last year but is making the team this year!

Re: Official Redskins Final Cuts Thread
 

I'm surprised that Robinson AND Banks both made the team. I didn't think there would be room for both.

Glad Aldrick is staying.

Keeping Banks as a returner will be very valuable, but he's nothing as a WR.
