Redskins final cutdown thread

[MTK]

Not sure what the hype is about Dixon all of a sudden. Good story but still, an undrafted FA who didn't even start in college. Probably a career backup/journeyman at best. Just a numbers game at DT. You can't keep everyone.

We learned last yr you dont have to start in college to make an impact. Cassel-- but you are right, we'll see.
I didnt think he was a starter,just not a bad guy to have in the rotation.

He had a stretch of like 3 or 4 plays in a row where he was blowing things up -- I think it was the Baltimore game. He made a good impression for awhile.

In the end though, we just had too many DTs that could play. Like you said we can't keep everybody, and that's why I hope the roster restrictions are loosened once the new CBA takes effect.

Thats so true. We are deep at DT with Haynesworth, Griff, Monty,and Golston. Daniels, Lorenzo and Wynn could also slide inside as well.
