I'm actually glad we got rid of Montgomery. I was tired of holding on to a low draft pick waiting for him to perform better than expected.

Time to being in the younger, better talent. Hail to the Redskins.

The move also tells me we got the vet WRs to compete to play and not just to light a fire under the newbies' butts. Don't be surprised if Shanny releases another newbie later on when the roster has to hit 53. I hope Mitchell actually pursued a real degree at Nevada and not the typical basketweaving ones like Phys Ed or a general Communications degree. It is a 50/50 chance somebody is going to pick him up. Getting released at minicamp isn't very good.

I'm a Phys Ed/Health major at Longwood University I wouldn't call it a basketweaving major. At my school it is actually one of the harder education programs to get out of and requires a higher GPA to stay in the program then our Business school and requires the 2nd most credits to graduate out of the entire university. Don't hate on PE

[SFREDSKIN]

Or Gym class....I can remember my PE teachers always saying "Gym (Jim) there is no Gym (Jim) here"


I don't know who is more uptight about their jobs dentist or PE teachers. God forbid you don't refer to a dentist as a Doctor.

I wish I would have majored in PE, not because it's easy, I'm sure it's not, just would be a sweet gig I think to be a gym teacher. Do some coaching on the side, summers off, not bad at all.

Haha it's true my professors go nuts if you call it "gym" class. It's a lot harder now than it used to be to get through it but it also depends on where you go to school as well. I transferred to Longwoods PE department and realized quick it was no joke. It's not surprising at all to see people not graduate on time haha like me

I switched from Sports Management to PE just because of the summers off and the coaching gig. It's awesome as long as you can find a job, which in VA good luck at this point

This is good news for us I believe, getting better by dropping the dead weight.

[Son Of Man]

Probably because he offers no value on special teams, but I'm still disappointed. Look at our top 3 RBs (Portis, Johnson, Parker) and top 3 WRs (Moss, Thomas, Kelly), and of those, only Thomas might be a regular on special teams. Any #4/#5 guys at those positions will probably be expected to contribute to special teams, so Marko was probably a victim of the numbers game. He definitely has the height, speed, and hands to excel somewhere if given the chance, I just hope that it isn't in our division.
