Correct me if I'm wrong: It seems like unless his name is Janikowski, a kicker typically goes from team to team until he gets enough experience and catches fire somewhere.

(Hoping Korbath's time is now.)

What do we know about this kid Mario Addison? He went to Troy and played defensive end and was drafted by the Indianapolis Colts in 2011. Don't know whether or not how many playing time he's received if any. It appears the Redskins view him as another converted outside 3-4 linebacker.

He wasn't drafted by the Colts

Smoot, you're right. This kid was undrafted. But initially signed with the Chicago Bears.

Right, because he wanted to play DE in a 4-3 defense, like Markus White. So...I don't get this move

I dont know why the Skins continue to acquire 4-3 def players. Might as well run a 4-3 defense.

Don't try to figure it out, you'll go crazy. Just bitch about it and drive everyone else crazy.

This is one of the issues I have with Shanahan. He brought Haslett in knowing he hadn't run a 3-4 defense in 11 years, and that Haslett does NOT want to run the 3-4. He wants to run the 4-3 defense. So this in itself boggles my mind as to why Mike would put himself and another person in this type of situation. Why get somebody who hasn't ran that scheme in a decade and who doesn't want to run that scheme?

They brought him here to learn the 3-4 and most likely transition over to DC.

I've heard a few insiders (including Smoot) comment that Haslett was on the hot seat even as of last year. Few of them even mention that when Dan, Bruce, Mike, and Kyle go to dinner to Raheem Morris when they first were interested, they didn't even bother to bring Haslett along. You don't even bring your DC along on a secondary coach hire? Now mind you, he had a DC job lined up at the Vikings and turned it down. The clues are there and it really doesn't take much to add them all up and see what it spells out.

More than likely the coaches see something on film with this guy. Maybe they just like the way he rushes the passer.

I like the 4-3 better but MS likes the 3-4 and we won't change until he is no longer the coach. If we can get it to work for us then I might change my mind about the 3-4...

Maybe the coaches are not pleased with Rob Jackson or Chris Wilson.
