@CarbonPrimo @EBJunkies That;s my guy.. Never any doubt. They were not cutting a guy they had a late 1st/early 2nd round grade on.

That's one heck of a promotion for Thompson. He changes from running back to savior.

I like Williams a lot. Lewis too. I think maybe both are PSers. Can't see how we keep 6 WRs when most of our TEs can flex to WR. It's a good spot to save for an extra RB/OL

Thompson has some crazy speed and quickness in the open field. Can't wait to see him on some screens.

It's gong to be interesting to see how he performs when the lights go up. I'm thinking Santana might get early reps.

Re: Bucs vs Skins Gameday Thread

So is the thinking behind keeping 4 TB is for Helu's or Thompson's health concerns? I dont see enough touches for 4 RBs. Alfmo, Helu, Thompson would be my preference...Royster is a non factor in that rotation, K Williams is a better back imo, but again not enough touches. Jamison is going to the practice squad and looks ready to be added to the roster if need be. I mean is Shanny keeping 4 because he read the SI article and he thinks this might increase his ranking?

Id rather cut Royster and K Williams and look at the waiver wire for ILB/Safety/Tackle depth. Sh*t, even if Shanny and Kyle said I really like Lance Lewis or Skye Dawson, I'd rather keep that potential player over a K William or an Oyster.

Re: Bucs vs Skins Gameday Thread

Rumors are we're keeping 4 RBs, 1 FB, 4 TEs, 5 WRs. Take it for what it's worth.

RBs:

Morris
Helu
Royster
Thompson

FB:

Young

TE:
Davis
Paulsen
Reed
Paul

WR:

Garcon
Moss
Morgan
Hankerson
Robinson

The question is would you get rid of Royster for Williams or Lewis, right now I would.

It makes a lot of sense to me to carry 4 RBs. Alfred Morris is tough and durable, but he gets a lot of carries, and he came to the NFL with a lot of carries in college. Roy Helu, Jr. is coming off a big injury. Chris Thompson's health is questionable. With all of that in mind, Royster or K. Williams is a good option. I would like to have Jamison over Royster or K. Williams, but I think he's heading to the practice squad and will be added to the 53-man roster next year. If I remember correctly, the Redskins are limiting Jamison's carries so they can safely put him on the practice squad.

Yeah I agree, Helu and Thompson both need to prove they can stay healthy.

Re: Bucs vs Skins Gameday Thread

I would prefer to put Williams or Lewis on PS because three of listed TEs could play as WR for a game easily if we need them to. Thompson and Helu have durability issues so I feel it would be ideal for us to have a back up RB in case if one of them got hurt.

Pretty sure neither Williams nor Royster eligible for the Practice Squad.

I meant Nick Williams and I never said anything about putting Royster on PS. I believe that we should put a WR, either Nick Williams or Lance Lewis on PS instead of put one of the two WRs on roster at the expense of other RB.

You are correct. Neither of them are eligible.

There needs to be some clarification on Nick Williams (wr) and Keiland Williams(rb) in these discussions.
