Couple of questions though:

1.) Why is ARE still returning punts? I know some coaches don't want to put starters into special teams but isn't there one other player the Skins can put back there that can provide more than what we are getting from ARE?

2.) I agree with Smootsmack about Levi Jones looking good but I would say that we still need to draft an offensive lineman with our first pick. I still think Heyer is below average and not the long term solution. At guard and center only Dockery is a keeper. Also using the 2nd rounder on a offensive lineman would not be a bad idea as taking two swings increases our chances of solidifying the line. Depending on how Jones plays out the rest of the year the Skins need to strongly consider extending him for a couple of years (lets hope we go uncapped).

3.) Orakpo is a complete beast - thank God the NY Jets outbid us for Sanchez and the other teams in the NFL kept passing up on him in the draft. Hopefully we get a linebacker and Orakpo puts a little more weight so he can be a full time DE.

4.) When Portis is cleared to play how should we split the carries with him and Betts?
If I'm correct Moss was back for several returns with no results. Maybe the comment from our coach saying we go for the blocked punt instead of setting up the return might have something to do with it.
