[quote=SFREDSKIN;1020678]Who's going to pick up a player with 3 torn ligaments? ACL/MCL/PCL, all torn. He probably won't be ready to play till the second half of next season if lucky.[/quote]

Jake Ballard tore both ACLs, and New England still snatched him from New York. The flip side to what I said is that Ballard hasn't been a big contributor to the patriots since coming off the injury.

Crawford will clear waivers and be placed on IR.

Stop freaking out about Crawford being waived.. He has to clear waivers before Skins can put him on IR or work out a injury settlement..[/B][/quote]

I doubt it would be a settlement, they'd like to see him back I think

Re: Redskins Cuts
 

I heard on 1067 the fan that Adam carriker has officially been put on IR. I couldn't find that on twitter, can anyone confirm?

Can't find a link yet.

Re: Redskins Cuts
 

so 3 IR and 4 suspended/PUP to start the season?

that's a lot of free roster spots, since all 7 are in the top 53.


and i don't think we're that desperate, but kenny phillips was let go at S if they like him over whoever our #4 is right now. meh.

[QUOTE=JoeRedskin;1020592]Morris, Helu, Thompson and Royster or Williams.

My bet is Williams over Royster.[/QUOTE]

Good bet. Morris - helu - williams. Awesome. Royster is as good as gone imo.
Seems like we came through the first three games and offseason pretty much healthy. Been so busy at work i am alittle out of the loop. Sucks about Crawford, how is Hank?

[quote=CultBrennan59;1020521]Another thing about Niles people don't think about; he's basically a buffed up WR. He also returned kicks (and punts ) at Nebraska. He can fill in if need be at PR should Thompson continue to suffer from fumblelitis.

Back to Niles, it'll be real fun this year watching him line up all over the field and when we use 3 and even 4 TE sets, finding ways to get him Davis and Reed the ball.[/quote]

Where do I begin? Again I must be watching a completely different game.

Niles is good on kick offs. +1
Niles is good at blocking. +1
Niles sucks at catching anything thrown his way. -1
Niles sucks on PR's. -1

He brings new meaning to the term 50/50.

Thompson fumbles to much for me on simple runs, but he does not do too bad on PR's. I'd put Thompson on the practice squad.

Niles.... I'm not sure what I'd do. I think I'm ready to cut him and develop some new guy who can catch and block.

You must not have been watching him this preseason. He's improved very noticeably. His -1 catching has turned into a +1. John Keim said that he didn't see Niles drop a ball until the 3rd week of training camp. He said last year at that same time Niles had well over double digits in drops.

Anyone following RT cuts around the league?
I am hoping for it to start raining gumdrops

I know the Panthers cut Bruce Campbell, athletic tackle that the raiders drafted out of Maryland a couple years ago. If i remember correctly some people wanted us to draft him on here.

edit: I think he was injured that is why he was cut.

Re: Redskins Cuts
 

so 5 depth players stashed on IR, at least 1 on pup and the suspensions (t jackson ??, r jackson/jenkins 4 games)

I think we've figured out how to keep a 63 man roster... go us?

If KP had anything left he wouldn't get cut from terrible secondary.
