I'm going to trump all of you and pine for the return of Richie Petitbon. But only as a defensive coordinator.

Pretty good chance Mike Nolan will be available after this year. Maybe Danny can send out for some more ice cream.

The Cowboys just cut Michael Sam from the practice squad. Isn't he supposed to be a good pass rusher? Should we sign him or is he not NFL material?

Media circus - strike one
Former Cowboy - strike two (not really but I'm working a theme here)
Cut from 2 practice squads - strike three

No upside to bringing him in.

maybe just bring him in for the cowboys game and try to find their achillies (hint: stop Murray). Of course i would love to see Sam in the game, sack Romo and see a pelvic thrust sack celebration on the cowboy star in primetime.

I was thinking just this when I saw the news on ESPN. I think we should take a look at Sam and sign him to the practice squad. He can rush the passer and with Rak gone for the season we need depth at the at the position. We have Jeffcoat and Gabe Miller on PS right now. Bring in Sam and see what he has . He can also give us some 411 on the Cowboys defense.

As far a PR it would be positive for the Redskins who many people view as negative. The gay community would be happy and maybe we get lucky that Sam can play . It's a no lose situation .
