wow. interesting. They may actually use him well, and give him a long career there (or a short one)

As for Amerson, Amerson said on the conference call that Shanahan said he's playing CB. So as much as we'd like to say that we'd see him best at FS, he's going to start off at CB.

I'm cool with that. He's got great size

Gotta like a guy who immediately acknowledges/addresses his weakness IMO. That or he's very tactful.

I see trick plays coming to Washington.

New Redskins TE Jordan Reed started at QB in the 2011 Outback Bowl for Florida against Penn State.

He was their Red zone toy, I expect him to take snaps at QB running draws instead of RG3 on short yardage plays

Hmm..perhaps having an ex QB...may mean we wont have to carry 3 qbs! at least long term

Well, SKINSnCANES, we didn't get barkley, but maybe we can get rid of Grossman like you were hoping for earlier....

[NC_Skins]

Holy shit. We went TE in the 3rd? I guess that's Fred's clue about his future here in Washington.

Very possible that the #Redskins will carry 4 TE's on the roster. Did a few years ago Cooley-Davis-Sellers-Paulsen. One would also b/u at FB

[artmonkforhallofamein07]

So where do we go tomorrow? Trade up with a sixth since we have two 5s and grab a safety?

Amerson's problem is with his eyes, I don't know how that would transfer to FS over a CB. I like the idea of a big corner. I would now say that CB is lookin good and competitve. You could almost say it is a strength now that we have four potential starters. Good competition is a big plus.

Realistic chance of finding a starting FS this year in the draft 25-35%

I did hear we cleared 2 mil of cap space by restructuring JW's contract. Maybe they have thier eye on a FA FS.

the problem is that darrel young is legit and that its hard enough to find him enough playing time as it is. considering cooley doesnt want to play for anyone else but the skins, his playing career is over. i think the biggest concern should be that theres a chance paulsen and paul will be given an equal chance to battle it out in training camp, when everyone knows paul should just be cut loose. what do you do if paul has the special teams edge over paulsen?

2013:
davis
paulsen or paul
reed

d young

[Evilgrin]

Banged up receivers along with Davis still recovering, one of them will probably miss time again. So another hibrid te/receiver is a need. I'd like to see us grab more DL.
