He has lost it as a return man. As much as I'd like to see him progress, it almost appears that #16 riding pine would be a good and strategic move going forward. Niles Paul had the game's best kickoff return for the Redskins, taking one 39 yards.

Totally agree. Wasted roster spot. The guy does nothing; I take ARE back at this point.

REDSKINS4ever · 12-04-2012, 02:19 PM

I used to think the world of him because of his blazing speed, but he's nothing like Mike Nelms and Brian Mitchell. Once again #16 fielded a kickoff in the middle of the end zone and only made it to the 15 yard line, giving the offense very inferior field position. If Danny Smith can't realize he needs to be replaced, then he himself should be replaced.

It was nice seeing Niles Paul snag one out of his hands and take it 30+ yards. Yeah, I'm over Brandon Banks as a return guy. He still shows some utility in the option- but other then that- he seems like more a of a liability than anything else.

robinson/paul on kicks
moss on punts
banks on streets?

if we had brought in routt or edwards, or babin - i would favor cutting him. but it seems like we can afford his spot on the roster, so leave him be.

This sounds like money in the Bank to me. Moss use to be on returns, but then he got heavy and slow but now that he's in shape again why not. He's still got some pep in that step and has got to be more mentally sound then Banks.

right, when he stopped returning punts, he was our #1 wr. he would return the occasional punt here and there.

he's no longer our #1 wr, he's still got juice, let 'im at it.

I agree he can only be has good as his blockers....truth be told I'm amazed Danny Smith has kept his job this long.

NC_Skins · 12-04-2012, 03:57 PM

I would rather cut him and bring in a kick off specialist.

Danny Smith will be back. "His guys".....not so much.

I can't really complain about the special teams since Kobra Kai has been on board. Just wished they cut Banks and bring on a kick off specialist. That's about the only tweak I would do to ST at this time.

REDSKINS4ever · 12-04-2012, 02:27 PM

#16 is bad in the return game. He was used as a running back in the Cincinatti game a little bit but hasn't been featured on offense since. Where does #16 even fit in on the team? They never put him in as a WR. Why in the hell is he even on the team?
