He's a high risk opt out -- asthma. And his kids also have asthma. So hard to blame him for doing this.

Completely agree. It's a shame -- I like his speed at that position.

Agreed. Fortunately, he was just a depth player.

Granted it's no guarantee, but it still gives me some hope, I had absolutely zero he was going to stay when he was tagged.
He could've just gone "Will see what happens, I'm focusing on the upcoming season" or whatever, couldn't he ?

I love the fact that Scherff is learning from Kerrigan about maintaining his body. I won't be surprised if we end up giving Scherff top 3 guard money next year.

Looking at the link it is difficult to tell, often it is a case of the reporter asking a leading question like "What is you goal for this year" .... anything other than having a goal of winning the Superbowl or having the No1 unit in the NFL is criticised rightly , but the reporters tend to turn the answer around to say Player X is confident they will win the Superbowl this year.

Of course the goal for every player at the start of the season is to be on the No1 unit in the NFL and to win the Superbowl, it is not like he guaranteed it.

I wouldn’t hate it...but needs to play like it. In the running game, he is there. Pass protection and penalties...he needs to clean that up.

Yeah he definitely needs to do a better job although, I'm guessing some of the issues he had were because of the Oline issues. According to PFF, he allowed only one sack last year but he had penalty issues.. Also, Moses certainly didn't help much.

I think he can anchor the Oline this year and hopefully step into Trent leadership role at the same time.

I'm sorry but when you're coming back to a defense that finished in the bottom third of the league in every statistical category, is it too much to ask to tone it down a bit on what you say to the press ?
Like what's wrong with "I'm excited to be part of this defense, we have a lot of talent and intend to work hard to be the best we can be this season" ?

Re: WFT 2020 Training Camp
 

Sounds like Reuben Foster is actually expected to play at some point in the season.

I hope so, a ton of talent if he can every have some medical luck.

Re: WFT 2020 Training Camp
 

Lol. That is awesome. I love the name for the inconvenience it's going to cause for the self righteous assholes that made us change our name.

Can't wait to smoke the Philadelphia Football Team.

Re: WFT 2020 Training Camp
 

^ Absolutely!

I think it's funny too. It's like we're trolling the NFL with this as payback for us being made to change our name...making them look like an amateur league on their schedules and other correspondence/reports. It's going to trip up announcers and the pompous members of the media all year, and they were some of the biggest driving force behind erasing our history and identity. I can't wait to see how many times they slip up and stumble through broadcasts.

"So we can't be Redskins...fine then we'll just be "football team!"

For us, we know it's temporary, but it does make their stuff (see above) look stupid in the meantime.

They really should have made that say Washington...that's on them.

Lol...what an embarrassment.

I swear I don’t want any of our guys talking shit, especially on defense. While we have potential, let the play speak for it. It’s okay to be competitive but just shut the fuck up.

if Foster stays healthy I just love our LB squad: Jon "Underrated Tough Mofo" Bostic, Cole "Looking Like Brock Lesnar" Holcomb, solid veteran Thomas Davis, was a nice starting line up if you ask me. Throw Ryan Anderson and SDH in there for nice depth. Now with Reuben Foster back it looks really great IMO !

Re: WFT 2020 Training Camp
 

Ryan Anderson is only practicing with the DE...he will not be with the LB. surprising but this is where they have him.

At this point, with Anderson, predator and Sweat...why is RK on the team? We also have 2 other young guys with some potential. Move RK finally...in a offseason of change, this is the perfect time to see if we can get a 3rd or 4th round pick.

Yeah surprising.
But you know what, I've been adamant about Ryan Anderson's progress the last 2 seasons as an 3-4 OLB so I don't hate it, 4-3 DE is closer to 3-4 OLB than 4-3 OLB.

If healthy, our Front 7 is loaded!!! A good player is getting released.

And will get swooped up immediately. Could be Anderson.

He could also win a spot and force another good DE or OLB out.

Because he can play! Also because RR wants to have a sprinkling of veteran leadership and mentorship on the team.

Let's see these young players with "potential" show something before we trade away RK and lose what amounts to our third starting caliber DE. Depth is good.

OK, now it's time for me to admit the real reason I would hate to see him go: I love to watch the way he plays football for my team. He is a personal favorite of mine. I understand that it makes sense for us to get something for him while we can but I don't want to see him go.

You know what...Ryan Anderson was the better player last year. I would not overpay for a guy who showed last year has lost a step and let a young dude who is growing into a better player walk.

People keep talking about this is a perfect time for change and break old traditions...we need to follow thru in all aspects of the organization and move on from RK.

Re: WFT 2020 Training Camp
 

I thought we should have traded him to the Ravens at the deadline last year. They needed a pass rusher and we give Ryan a real chance at a ring. Then we didnt move him.

I thought he was a good candidate to cut to free up more cap space for the offseason. Then we really didnt spend money in FA (yeah its not over yet), didnt extend Scherff and now sit with something like 31M in free cap space (3rd most).

At this point ... unless we can trade him to a team with legit SB aspirations, just keep the loveable vet. Saw him lifting iron with Payne and Allen in the offseason in a garage so I assume he is hanging out with the younger guys.

Injuries will happen. Out of Allen, Payne, Matty I, Sweat, RK, RA, Settle and Chase ... probably 2 of those guys go on IR at some point.

We have a beast front 4 with so much depth. Sucks our offense will be pedestrian and our secondary is well below average.

Feels like when we had Cousins, D Jax, garcon, Trent, Reed ... offense was top 10 but D was bottom 5 = no real success.

Re: WFT 2020 Training Camp
 

In a part time role RK could be really effective getting after the passer. And you can never have enough of those guys.
