Jansen hit the wall hard last year and its going to happen to Thomas sooner rather than later. I dont know where you get your comments about Rabach getting man-handled last year - he had a few bad plays that I remember, but he played solid football against some of the best NTs in the league last year. Rabach was good enough to make SportingNews and USATodays All-Pro team at mid-season 2008. He's certainly better than any FA centers on the market right now and we have too many needs to address center with a top pick in the draft. With a cap figure in the 2M range, Rabach is offering us alot of bang for our buck.

If you can produce a link to this, I think you'd be off the hook for assuming Rabach was performing decently last year.
But boy, they'll be getting an email pretty soon. Who else made that team, Kwame Harris?
I maintain that you and I aren't disagreeing on the same level. You are providing insight based on what you've read, etc. Places have reported that Casey Rabach was a big proponent for our 6-2 start. I get that. You are just reporting onto me what you've gathered.
I'm telling you first hand, based on extensive tape review, that what you've read is incorrect, and
hilariously so. The logic that Casey Rabach deserves to keep his job is nothing more than an assumption based on the overall productivity of the Redskins running game through 8 weeks last year from people who don't follow the team and might have seen a single game (such as the first Dallas game).
In my opinion, that doesn't qualify them to comment accurately on the subject. In reality, their assumptions are dead wrong.
