Redskins release WR Andre Roberts

Cutting Garcon just to save cap space (when you don't really need to cut cap space) doesn't make much sense to me. We aren't playing Madden, intangibles (hard-working, tough, good teammate, possibly a mentor) matter in the locker room and on the field. Team chemistry is built through having the right kind of players on the field and showing loyalty to those who "earn it" every day. Being loyal to players, like Garcon, shows a committment to your players and to winning football games. Management earns the trust of it's players this way and that helps create "buy in" to what the GM and coaches are trying to do. Imagine a team full of disgruntled player who question every move management makes or the coaching philosophy. Veteran players have a huge influence in the locker room, if you have 5-6 vets questioning everything they tend to miss their assignments on game day or take plays off during the game. You may not think cutting Garcon can have THIS particular kind of domino effect on a team, but I definitely believe it can.

The Skins finally have a football guy in charge and I love it.

HTTR!!
