Smoot tried to decapitate DJ hackett

How did a thread about Smoot making a crazy play on a WR in training camp turn into a Smoot bashing session?

At any rate, the guy has been a great Redskin and a much needed voice in the locker room, and though i concede that he is a shadow of his former self, I won't say that I expect him to get cut. If for nothing else, he'd be worth a roster spot for his locker room presence and leadership b/c football is such a mental game, especially with this team. Sure, Barnes and Tryon are doing well in training camp and they show promise for the future but when it comes to the real games (and even more so in the playoff chase and the postseason) it's going to come down to experience. I don't know about you but i'd rather have smoot at nickel than a rookie in the opening round of the playoffs, even if there is a drop off in physical ability.

Even if you think he did underperform last year, the level to which he underperformed did not warrant the type of reaction that some of you are displaying. Let's be honest there are plenty of other players on the team who sucked it up last year who arguably had a much bigger impact on the team's overall performance.
