Grimm didn't play for Allen must have been Butz.

[quote=skinsfan69;1113498]Halliday put up some serious numbers at WSU. 90 td passes and 11,000 yards? Over 700 yards in one game? How did this kid go undrafted and why is he quitting?[/quote]

He would of been a 1st rounder in my opinion but he broke his ankle during the season.

He called 90% of the plays from the line of scrimmage himself in college. Pro-Style.

No idea why he's quitting

Health ?

Re: Redskins Off Season things.
 

First round for him might have been a stretch, even he said he was hearing 3rd or 4th before the injury. Sucks either way I was looking forward to seeing what he could do.

[B]Gruden said undrafted free-agent signee Connor Halliday “chose to jump on a plane and head to the house.” He hasn’t spoken to him yet, though Halliday left a voice message for Gruden. One source Friday said that Halliday had “sort of” retired.[/B]

Liking what I read there, especially about Smith. Sounds like a good pick in round 2. Also like reading that Scherff stays late to work with Callahan. He sounds like he wants to get better and is willing to put the work in to make it happen.

I've been hearing a lot of really good things about Kerrigan this off season (not too shocking), anybody else think he'll step in as Captain this year on defense?

Not a surprise at all, but notable because NFL Films says they don't want to film Hard Knocks with an unwilling team. Hopefully this means we're not under consideration.

Congrats to RG3 and family,good for him personally but IMO bad for the team.I've already heard rumblings that Griff doesnt spend enough time in the film room and having a new baby at home will only worsen that situation.

Re: Redskins Off Season things.
 

Really?
You're slagging him off for potentially being a good parent?

Cmon man dont do me like that.Do I want him to be a bad parent? No,but it will be extremely hard to be both.You have to put the time in in the film room to be great,you cant just be a great athlete.We all know he needs it.
Heres an example
[url=http://espn.go.com/nfl/playoffs/2012/story/_/page/hotread-tom-brady/nfl-playoffs-tom-brady-eyes-backups]NFL playoffs -- Tom Brady through the eyes of his backups[/url]

This is the part that speaks volumes:
[I]Back in those days, Brady was unmarried, with no kids or obligations. And he spent all of his time on football. Miller used to laugh at the fact that Brady didn't know much about politics or just about anything else going on in the world outside the football offices back then. He didn't have time. His impromptu quarterback meetings over breakfast on game days were like lightning rounds on quiz shows. He'd have his backups run him through a fire drill of questions and possible scenarios.

Anyone who's played behind Brady has inevitably watched more game film than he cares to mention. Some of them can't understand how Brady and Belichick could sit there, for three hours straight, never taking their eyes off the film.[/I]

That was when Brady was 26,unmarried and no kids.Griff has not been putting the time in the filmroom as it is,having a kid is not going to help that situation,thats all Im saying.We have to hope he can overcome it.

A work/life balance is something everyone deals with, besides its not like these guys watch film 24/7. He'll manage.

Keim: I think having a baby has, or should have, a positive impact on anyone's career. I know it did on mine. But I've never worried about Griffin's focus; he's a lot more focused than most -- not only in the NFL, but for his age period. Say what you want about him -- and I've certainly pointed out his struggles -- but he is a focused, hard-working, determined player. Ultimately, it gives him a chance to still be successful. If he has a good year, I would not look back and say his baby was somehow the reason. (But you know it will be a storyline should he play well). Maybe his new daughter gives him a different peace of mind or maybe it provides him more perspective; life is different when you go from the center of attention to having a child who now occupies that role. That's true for anyone. But I think he's capable of improving, with or without a newborn. As for social media, that's another bug of mine. When he was at his high point in terms of tweeting it was perhaps three a day. Not sure why the rest of the world can tweet or use social media but he can't. I've never understood it. Maybe people don't like what he says on there -- and I guess it reminds fans of his failures, but it in no way has impacted his performance. During the season? I'd recommend players staying off there because Twitter is not always a kind place for athletes in-season -- I know there are people who spread lies even about what I've written or said and express hatred for having a differing opinion, let alone the classless nonsense that is directed at players. But in the offseason? Have at it; live your life.
