Obviously we don't know the terms yet, but why a three year contract?

doubt he's anything more than a warm body considering all of our injuries at WR

One word............Vinny.

It seems though that our recievers are coming in pairs

Moss and ARE
Kelly and Thomas
Hacket and Washington
Mitchell and Shelton
then theres Thrash.

Damn that's 10 receivers. I know they're not all going to make the roster but damn 10 guys? Really?

Help him out Quake, apparently math isn't Dirtbags strong point. :)

Damn it, I knew I screwed up so I rushed to fix this. Of course I had already gotten caught. Hopefully the math gods will forgive me, but their judgment is only ruled by absolutes. Except when it comes to negative square roots. Damn pairs, why couldn't James Thrash have a comparable teammate?

Okay, I didn't know we were looking for a receiver if so why didn't we go after Braylon (hail to Michigan) or Boldin? This makes no since, and I'm confused about the length of the deal
also.

Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzz...doesn't it make you want to kick something when every year at the beginning of mini-camp or OTAs or whatever damn near the entire WR corp is already gimpy? Seriously, don't hear about other teams experiencing this. Moss can't do shit cuz of shin-splints. Kelly has the worst knees in North America. Devin has already pulled his hamstring. This leaves ARL dancing around and bunch of new fish, who never seem to get hurt btw. I think the only WRs of the past few years to get through a season healthy we're the 49 yr old McCardell and Reche (Buggie) Caldwell. Bizarre...just bizarre.

I tried to look him up but there really isn't a lot of info on him. :Smoker:

he spent 08 on Seattle's practice squad??..the Seahawks were so thin at receiver by midseason and he didn't play?

at the very least this is another special teams audition ..

We're not talking about serious injuries, nothing to get alarmed about. It's May, relax.

Nothing like freaking out at the end of our first minicamp.. Calm down JLC, the season is 5 months away.

Re: Skins sign WR Trent Shelton to 3 year deal
 
Well i wouldn't downplay the situation either guys. The most critical thing for WR and his QB is developing that chemistry/timing. Now we know JC is working on a new shorter, quicker throwing motion. I'm sure DT has gotten time in w/ JC cuz he stayed at the park and worked all off-season - haven't heard this about the other guys. It's important our WR corp gets more crisp in it's work...

If only hamstrings were like tonsils and you can just take em out. Seems like their more trouble then good :(.

The reason they signed him to a three year deal is because he let them. The longer the minimun contract the better for the Redskins. If he pans out he will be under contract for two more years if he does not they cut him with no cap hit
