Re: Redskins Select Adonis Alexander in 6th Round of Supplemental
 

Can Moreau play the slot? I'd prefer Dunbar and Norman to start on the outside with Moreau starting in the slot and serving as next man up on the outside with Scandrick bumping to the slot if needed.

I'd imagine this is Norman's last year here. Hopefully Alexander will be ready to serve as backup on the outside and Stroman can start in the slot in 2019. Then we would have Moreau and Dunbar on outside with Stroman in slot.

[quote=FrenchSkin;1196488]Yeah Scandrick is clearly insurance, I just feel like we could've found a little cheaper insurance, but I may be wrong. Or, let me put it this ways: our others signings, like Paul Richardson or Zach Brown, I felt were [U][B]good deals for us[/B][/U], and [U]pretty smartly structured too[/U].
Scandrick's is just meh, and so is his price.

Holsey is the one whose spot is the hottest for sure. I think we keep him on TS.[/quote]

If these young guys show something in camp Scandrick is gone. He is not a lock to make the team.

Re: Redskins Select Adonis Alexander in 6th Round of Supplemental
 

Nonsense. Barring a major injury Scandrick makes the team.

Because he is unreliable health wise, past prime skill wise. Its not hate, just skeptical...Im ready for camp cause Gray will sort out the log jam....no doubt. Decisions will be based on performance...I really like the group of guys we have in the secondary as a whole...

Scandrick, Dunbar and Moreau is gonna be a nice battle. Moreau's upside...im excited to see how he plays. Camp is gonna be fun this year with all the young talent.

This. Idc how many corner positions he can play, he's old. Sometimes old is okay if the player was dominant earlier (see Davis, Vernon) but when he was only solid in his heyday it doesn't bode well when father time catches up to him.

Re: Redskins Select Adonis Alexander in 6th Round of Supplemental
 

Our secondary still needs alot of help. Hopefully this guy can in some manner help. Ill take it for a sixth rounder.

I think you're out of touch with the Redskins' opinion of Scandrick and all reports that say he's working at both outside and inside positions.

It's painfully obvious their intentions are to start him on the outside and move him into the slot in nickel situations. If somebody makes the leap then I'm sure they'll reevaluate, but it's like you haven't read a single one of Gruden's quotes this offseason.

So you disagree with very smart football people. Wouldn't be the first time.

lol...oh the pain. I'm hoping he contribute in someway to the team other than sitting next to Reed on the bench injured or running after receivers into the end zone. I'm excited to see how it plays out and certainly he was signed with a role in mind and not a camp body. He versatility in or outside is a big plus. Cant wait for camp to start, we got a great mix of guys in the secondary. Hopefully Scandrick can raise his level of play, but Id like to see the future of the secondary rise up and challenge his spot...b/c Scandrick as we know isn't the future.

Good segment where Kevin and Redskins insider JP Finlay talk Adonis Alexander's selection and Redskins secondary.

Scandrick definitely is making the team, but Finlay expects Dunbar to win the outside starting job over him.
Scandrick would then play in the slot, but he also said he doesn't think our coaching staff would be upset to play one of our young guys over him (Moreau, Stroman, Holsey, Alexander...).

I'm excited about competition in the secondary!

I definitely see Dunbar and Norman starting with Scandrick in the slot. It’s not as if he signed a deal that indicates he’s cemented in as a starter. He’s veteran depth that brings some versatility.
