Updated: Redskins Make Major Roster Cuts

[Trample the Elderly]

If you keep saying blow it up long enough it will happen. Now all we have to say is win.

[The Goat]

No surprises in the cuts really. I do hate to see Griff go, I think he's still a very good DT...in a 4-3.

[GusFrerotte]

Yeah really, who can really be surprised at any cuts that will be made. Only a handful of guys could be deemed untouchable or good trade bait on our roster. WE all have our fav players, etc, but these guys really are the epitome of mediocrity.

[SmootSmack]

No surprises here. Well, actually there were a couple of more guys that were close to being cut but...made the cut it seems.

But this is what we talked about a couple of weeks ago. That there would be major changes to the current roster. Shanahan and Allen have no loyalties to anyone on the roster and they've never been afraid to make changes

And there's more to come. Skins seem really intent on shipping Rocky and Campbell out ideally by this weekend (regardless of what they're saying).

Lots of Browns rumors floating around. Some good, some not so good. Depending on your perspective I suppose.

I'm ok with Campbell being shipped out as long as there's a solid plan to overhaul this line to protect whatever rook we get at QB. If Rocky and Campbell result in picks, I'm all for it. Just as long as whatever they do is good for the team, I'm all for it.

Did somebody say Rocky and Campbell for Shaun Rogers and a second?

So we get rid of our average QB for a mediocre QB (Anderson) or a QB with the situation where the jury is still out on him? Screw that, give me the pick, let's draft Bradford and get a vet QB in free agency if that's the case.

Well Rogers is the best player in the trade, Anderson has accomplished a ton more than Campbell ever has and like you said, the jury is still out on Quinn. I would rather have Okung/Davis and either Quinn/Anderson then Bradford and a second round pick.

Dude what are you smoking? Those guys are horrid. I know the Browns have their problems, but we are way better off using the second round pick to get another rook QB. This year is a banner crop for QBs. Get your franchise guy, then get another young guy as the 3rd stringer that might actually compete for the starting position. I mean if we do trade JC, that leaves us only with Brennan, and that experiment is a bit shaky.

Well, I think that the trade scenario as a whole was pretty unrealistic so I said throw in one of their QBs.

Banner Crop for QBs? Then why would we use the 4th pick on one when stud tackles are available and LT is absolutely our biggest need.

What are your sources on shipping JC out by this weekend?

He'd have to kill you if he told you.

Does he have insider access? We tendered JC so whoever takes him is going to give up a first round pick. I find that hard to believe, even if it is a future first rounder.

That's not necessarily true. The other team doesn't have to give up a first rounder if the Redskins and the other team can agree on other compensation
