Re: Who To Keep

Why do we even keep Leonard Hankerson? I think he was active for 1 game after he came off the PUP list.

Re: Who To Keep

I think we've kept Hankerson as he's our tallest receiver (and there's a desire for a possession receiver), and he's shown flashes. But he also seems to have been bitten buy the injury bug, didn't really come back 100% this season even after he was activiated from PUP, and otherwise hasn't shown consistency.

If the team continues to be high on Grant, it isn't clear we keep Hankerson (as DJax, Garcon, and Roberts aren't going anywhere). I think Hankerson may be the beneficiary of the fact that we have so many holes elsewhere that we're not likely to invest any further in WRs. If there's some rookie or cheap FA that comes available, he may get nudged. But short of that, I wouldn't be surprised to see him hang around, especially because we would likely be able to re-sign him on the cheap and he's probably #5 anyway.

Excellent mantra. Let's hope that King Passive Aggressive and Prince Arrogance stick to it.

Re: Who To Keep

Gotta love the feeling of optimism. Everyone needs to remember that this is going to take time. SM is going to need 3 solid drafts and hit on a few free agents.

Personally, I'm resigned to the idea of this task taking a few years. I think it's time to have some organizational stability with clearly defined roles for management, players selected to fit the schemes we play, and time for those players to learn and develop within the same system for which they were drafted.

Re: Who To Keep

Orakpo must go. He can not stay healthy and after 6 NFL season he has developed one pass rush move. Expensive, injury prone and not very productive: that is the type of Snyder era player we are trying to get away from.
Orakpo has had three serious torn pectoral injuries. That is really bad.

Other players that need to go, below average players that will never get significantly better...so time to go in another direction:

1) EJ Biggers
2) Kedric Golston
3) Ryan Clark
4) Brandon Meriweather
5) Chris Neild
5) Santana Moss (great redskin in his day,but time to go)

Re: Who To Keep

My nephew Tyler once sacked Kirk Cousins in a high school game.
Tyler is a known slacker.
What does that say about Cousins?
Hmmmm?
