Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

I just heard this one on the radio. I have to tell you, I never was convinced that the guy who used to post on this site - and later got banned - wasn't the real Mills. I went to school with Zack and saw him at the bar on sundays. He definately was a diehard Skins fan, and besides, he wasn't a good enough football player for anyone to base their screenname on: unless they were him of course.

Can you guys imagine if that's really him:
Gibbs: "Hi son, glad to have you on board with the team"
Mills: "Hey old man, we should have kept Spurrier, or at least looked at Denni Green. You ain't got what it takes."
Gibbs: "That's fine son, I'll work on the coaching, you just work on holding those fieldgoal kicks."

Hailing from Ijamsville, Md., and often seen around town in his Washington Redskins cap, quarterback Zack Mills only needed to hear one word when his phone rang yesterday morning.

"The guy said he was from the Redskins, and I just got really excited," Mills said.

Indeed, the caller was phoning Mills the day after the conclusion of the NFL Draft to let him know that his franchise was interested in signing Mills.

After checking with his agent, Mills agreed, becoming the fifth Penn State player to make arrangements with a professional team within the past two days.

Fullback Paul Jefferson also heard from the NFL yesterday -- the Cleveland Browns will sign him to a free agent contract -- though he wasn't so much excited to hear from a specific team as he was to go wherever in the league he'll have the best chance to make the roster.

"I trusted [my agent] enough to put me in the best position to make a squad," Jefferson said. "Cleveland has a new coach [former New England defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel], and he likes fullbacks."

No Penn State players were selected in the seven rounds of the 2005 NFL Draft, but post-draft negotiations will also send linebacker Derek Wake to the New York Giants, safety Andrew Guman to the Detroit Lions and kicker Robbie Gould to the New England Patriots.

Before negotiating his contract, Mills will have to pass a physical with the Redskins, due to the fact that he pulled a hamstring during a March workout. He then expects to participate in the Redskins' rookie mini-camp, held Thursday through Sunday.

Part of the Redskins' interest in Mills stems from his participation in a workout for NFL hopefuls held at Redskins Park in Virginia on April 1, in which the prospects were assessed for speed and agility and performed position-specific drills.

"I guess I gave them a decent impression then," Mills said.

The quarterback situation is not overly favorable at Washington, as the team used one of its first-round picks to select quarterback Jason Campbell out of Auburn and already has three quarterbacks on its roster, including veteran Mark Brunell and former first-rounder Patrick Ramsey.

"I don't know about [making the roster]," Mills said with a laugh. "But maybe I can catch on as a practice squad quarterback. I just want people to keep my name in mind; I just want to keep my name out there."

Jefferson was prominently in Cleveland's mind even prior to the draft, as the Browns sent him a letter saying that if he wasn't drafted, they wanted him to come to their mini-camp as a free agent.

Though many considered Jefferson the top lead-blocking fullback in the draft, he wasn't surprised his name didn't get called.

"Who's gonna use a pick on a true fullback if they can get one in free agency?" he said. "No fullback like me was drafted before me, so I'm not gonna take it as a big insult. I'm just happy to have a shot."

The Redskins selected six players in this weekend's draft, using their first pick, the ninth overall, to select Auburn cornerback Carlos Rogers.

Cleveland had eight picks in the draft, with its top selection being Michigan wide receiver Braylon Edwards, taken third overall.

[had the link here, but it was posted seconds before i hit send]
i guess it was true...he has aspirations on making the practice squad.

Re: Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

Does this mean we have to un-ban him?

Just curious... :Smoker:

Re: Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

Maybe NFL overseas, huh?

Talk about getting the last laugh. He plays for the freaking redskins.

This is my worst nightmare come true. :frusty:

Classic.

Re: Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

this isnt a joke???

Re: Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

So I've been kind of confused lately. Is SKINS_DOMIN8 the same person as ZackMills?

Re: Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

Ask Skinscanes he can tell you all about ZM.

Re: Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

SKINSnCANES, if you're out there, I've been wondering about this for a long time...

Is SKINZ_DOMIN8 also Zack Mills?

[QUOTE=TheMalcolmConnection]So I've been kind of confused lately. Is SKINS_DOMIN8 the same person as ZackMills?[/QUOTE]

Yes, they are the same person, and neither of them will be joining us any longer.

Re: Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

Practice squad material at best.

Re: Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

I am SHOCKED - and a bit pleasantly surprised I must admit - to see that no one is projecting Zack MIlls as the Skins starting QB any time soon... :food-smil

Wait til training camp SC, it's bound to come out of someone's mouth at some point.

Everyone loves the backup QB.

Well, I don't think we should rule him out. After all, Gibbs wants a pocket passer, and Zack can't run after all the smoking.
:Smoker: :Smoker: ;)

Re: Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

Ahhh.... excellent. What did SKINZ_DOMIN8 do to warrant that ban besides being a complete jackass? Because he said some questionable things many times and was never banned. Anything in particular or just the combination of those things?

Re: Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

that guy was hilarious, he could shore rattle some cages, and if that was him on the board I hope he does well. I'd love to see the guy back on here talking trash he was so sophmoric and funny

:food-smil toast one up to the smoker :Smoker:

The ZachMills on the site is definitly not the same Zach that went to Urbana. I emailed zach as soon as he joined the site to ask and he said he was just some random loser from PA or something like that.

As far as the real Zach that joined the Skins, how cool is that. Hes the first from my highschool to have a chance at the pros. Ill have to find a way to call him and congradulate him.

Hey djnemo65, who are you? Did you go Urbana or Penn State with him?

I went to Penn State. I totally believe you SkinsNCanes, but I wish you hadn't have told me that. It would have been so much fun believing our NFL Europe backup was a warpather...

Re: Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

Zach Mills isn't listed on the Redskins.com post about undrafted FA's.

Anyone know for sure?

The dance worked!

Re: Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

LOL:lol: I knew it!

Re: Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

Zack pulled a hammy the 1st day of the camp and had to sit out. I'm not surprised he was sent packing.

Re: Zack Mills signs with the Redskins!
 

Was he the QB that was on redskins.com practicing next to Jason Campbell?
