John Skelton also-well they've definitely spoken but I don't if there will be a workout or visit

Interesting, knew there was interest but didn't realize they were bringing him. Nice

Never mind it's just interest at this point. I misread the post in the rumors thread.

Oh, well at least you're on top of things haha

Re: Redskins Pre-Draft Visits and Private Workouts: 2010 Version
 

If the past two years meant anything, then:

1) We're going to spend our first pick on someone we bring in for a private workout.
2) we're probably going to draft someone from the positions we look at most.

However, we know Shanahan never even contacted Cutler before drafting him. Given that, thus far our energies have been mostly spent on QBs, I think its possible Shanahan is using misdirection and has no intention of drafting a QB in the first two rounds of the draft. Considering he also has heaped praise on top of several of our linemen, its also likely that he's trying to make other teams think we'll go with a QB with one of our 1st two picks, thereby forcing them to trade up if they want a particular QB.

I have a gut feeling that the interest in mccluster is genuine, though, and we'll be trading down (or up) to get him.

Good points. The thing is though about the Cutler situation and why Shanahan kept it secret was most likely because he knew he would have to trade up but at the same time no was expecting him to take a QB with the recent success of Jake Plummer.

This time around everyone knows that Redskins want a Quarterback so now the strategy is to visit everyone and make everyone wonder who they really want.

There most likely is a misdirection game going on somewhere in all of this but the question is where is it leading.

With ARE gone we're still desperate for an East-West runner. I don't know if McCluster is up to the task.

I try to adhere to proper English but it's not uncommon for stuff like that to get past me the first time around. It's much easier for me to find mistakes when people TYpE lIKe dIS or talk like Dez Bryant.

@BHA - Technically thats a Yogi Berra type moment. Emmit would be more of a statement along the lines of "We will undutabably send our first pick on a rookie."

[quote=SmootSmack;681375]You didn't see anything odd with this statement?

Actually I thought he was implying that we were not going to trade with the Rams AFTER they picked Bradford, thus spending our first pick on someone who we did not draft.

Yeah that's it that's the ticket!

And I assumed he was speaking metaphorically.

yeah lol

at first I was like okay that means we won't trade it away.. then I was like wait.. first pick, not first round pick

Very nice.

Re: Redskins Pre-Draft Visits and Private Workouts: 2010 Version
 

Interested in could be a very long list, maybe just keep it to confirmed visits

Can't be longer then 30 on the official visit part. I'll try to limit the "interested but not visiting" list.

sweeeeeet

Re: Redskins Pre-Draft Visits and Private Workouts: 2010 Version
 

^ yeah, I don't know if we will nab him but among RB's in the draft he is my favorite.

Re: Redskins Pre-Draft Visits and Private Workouts: 2010 Version
 

The visit with Best has been cancelled

Re: Redskins Pre-Draft Visits and Private Workouts: 2010 Version
 

[quote=SmootSmack;681537]The visit with Best has been cancelled[/quote]

Any relation to our signing of Parker?

Re: Redskins Pre-Draft Visits and Private Workouts: 2010 Version
 

[quote=SmootSmack;681537]The visit with Best has been cancelled[/quote]

That sucks but i think he is likely to be off the board before we draft a RB. No worries...we are getting Joe McKnight in round #4.

Re: Redskins Pre-Draft Visits and Private Workouts: 2010 Version
 

If we draft a late round running back, I hope we can grab this guy.
Probable 6-7th round pick. Possibly better than Best and McCluster.

Deji Karim-Southern Illinois: 5'9",210

Yeah McKnight is one guy I've heard mentioned a lot, but don't know if there are any plans for him to visit.

Karim is an intriguing possibility.

A guy I like a lot is James Starks out of Buffalo, though I'm not sure he fits here

Re: Redskins Pre-Draft Visits and Private Workouts: 2010 Version
 

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but Montario Hardesty is coming in for a visit

Should also be noted that several teams are looking at McCluster solely as a WR

I'm glad to hear Hardesty is coming in. Makes you wonder why Best was canceled.
