Updated Title: Redskins Add DT Balmer/WR Anderson; Cut Stallworth/Scott

[sportscurmudgeon]

Two points:

1. "He was in Houston with Kyle so he knows the offense..." Please remember that Rex Grossman was also in Houston with Kyle and he also "knew the offense". How'd that work out...?


2. The reason the Redskins need 8 WRs on the roster is that only 1 of them is any good - - and he's injured. Because the Redskins have 8 WRs on the roster, they did not have the option to keep sufficient numbers of offensive linemen that they need/needed to plug into the lineup. I'd rather see the Redskins sign an offensive guard and release a WR.

One more point. The day the Skins signed Stallworth, Doc Walker had him on the radio show. Walker went nuts about how Stallworth was a "baller" and someone who would "open the field" and who would make defenses game plan to stop him. Walker said that Stallworth was a stud.

Add Donte Stallworth to an ever-growing list of guys that come to DC with Doc Walker slobbering all over them and who leave town with all the fans just shrugging their shoulders and wondering why it took so long. Previous examples:

Juwann Howard

Jaromir Jagr

Adam Dunn

Albert Haynesworth - - he would make the OL better because they would have to practice against this monster every day. [stifling a laugh here...]

Donovan McNabb

Oh and don't forget his fawning all over Joe Gibbs' return along with Joe Bugel and now Mike Shanahan...
