Sounds like MM is bound to be a training camp hero this summer. Wonder if he can overtake Mason?

I think if he makes the practice squad, people will be projecting a Pro Bowl start this time next year (see: Anthony Mix)

No chance. Mason is the greatest RB in NFL history.

Dude it's not fair. We got Mason, Brennan, and now Mitchell. Thats like having Walter Payton, Dan Marino, and Jerry Rice all playing on the same team in their prime. If we still had Mix we could throw in Lynn Stallworth.

If ARE can't contribute as a #3 WR I really think his pay would justify getting cut.

The salary cap chart here assumes the skins choose to pick up an option and extend ARE beyond the 2009 season. They won't. Unless he somehow transforms himself into a #1 receiver this season, the skins will not pick up his option and he will be an unrestricted free agent in 2010 (Same for Andre Carter).

^^^i wish that was right and we could get rid of ARE and carter's K but im pretty sure we extended both of them converting future salary to guaranteed signing bonus money ala the skins FO style of always passing the buck.

go skins!!

bill b - yeah i thought the restructuring and extension of jansen precluded him for cap reasons from being cut too. still surprised at how we got out of that one.
