Re: Redskins Sign Three Players That Look Interesting

These early round signings always hold promise AND, IMO, the Skins do seem to have some good luck with these types of guys (see Chris Wilson).

Young, cheap and talented players are ALWAYS a good thing - if we sign 30 young, cheap guys and find one or two with enough talent to make the team, then it's well worth the effort.
Undrafted rookies & guys like Chris Wilson who had a few years in the cfl, are a much higher probability than these guys, who were cut by other teams if I'm correct. Not that they can't find their game here, but they've already been tested in the nfl.

I agree though, the Skins have done well, at least this past year, w/their undrafted finds.
