[quote=Ruhskins;697733]Redskins All-Time Offseason Fan Favorite Team (Updated):

QBs:
Colt Brennan
Chase Daniel (SmootSmack only)

RBs:
Marcus Mason
Sultan McCullough

WRs
Marko Mitchell
Anthony Mix (Well he was a fan favorite at one point)

DTs:
Antonio Dixon

CBs:
Ade Jimoh[/quote]

Lets also add Safety Justin Hamilton I believe was his name, the guy from VT.

And lets also add current redskin Lorenzo Alexander who was famous for making that tackle against the titans with his helmet off, busting his chin open.

Re: Redskins Release 5
 

Well, Lorenzo is still with the team.

No love for Taylor Jacobs? How about Ifeanyi Ohalete?

Re: Redskins Release 5
 

How about Billy McMullen?

Re: Redskins Release 5
 

I was always rooting for Marko. Sorry to see him go. The Redskins have a history of releasing WR's who end up as all pros on other teams.

Taylor J. never even did much in preseason. I remember the old ball coach coming off the field at half of a preseason game & he said annoyingly "we were [I]trying[/I] to get the ball to Taylor Jacobs."

Ifeanyi made the team & started for a few years at SS, can't include him.

I do feel Marko might make another team as a #4 wr (just a hunch), but please tell me about these "all pros."

They do?

Other than McCardell I can't name one. Can you?

Re: Redskins Release 5
 

McMullen, Ohalete? wasn't one of them injured each yr during preseason and had to sit out the whole season twice? When that happened I was done with them. Kinda how I feel about Kelly. He really needs to step up this yr and be a part of this team.

As far a Mitchell goes.... I was psyched about how he showed up at camp a couple weeks ago. He looked like he bulked up and had decent muscle. I understand the reasoning behind cutting Mitchell and especially since he was a late rounder or walk on. Easy come easy go. But atleast he was healthy and had size for the Red Zone. I think I would have kept him over Kelly. I know it's not the popular choice to go cutting 2nd round draft picks but he produced as much as Mitchell has. I'd have coached up Mitchell and had a healthy Red Zone threat vs. wondering if Kelly will be healthy enough or even produce.

All I thought of was McCardell myself. Maybe David Patten did ok with the Saints for a minute, but that would hardly count

[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]Thats the way i feel. I would have liked to see both of them dukeing it out knowing that only one is going to make the team this year, tie goes to Kelly because of the “investment” in him. At a minimum I feel like we should of at least kept him around as insurance in case Kelly’s knee flared up during preseason. [/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]Marko had a better rookie campaign then Kelly did, and i would bet that his sophomore season would have been better too. Depending on what happens to Kelly’s knee over the next couple seasons will prove if cutting Marko was a good decision or not. Plus I don’t see Kelly ever contributing to teams at all, where at least Marko can step in if need be, and he did a decent job during the second half of last year on coverage (albeit he’s no Anthony Mix).

Re: Redskins Release 5
 

What surprises me about the cut of mitchell is the dudes still on the roster, Galloway & Wade, don't play spec. teams. Wade maybe can return punts, so that's to his benefit, but Galloway sho ain't playing teams. Marko could try to play teams, he's young enough to contribute if he added some bulk.

I would guess that Shanny didn't like his approach in mini-camp & figured he'd cut him loose early. I just hope that the dude from murray state or some other unknown can make a preseason splash, play spec. teams & make the cut.
