Redskins Players Gather for Another Workout (Day 3 Notes Start on Post #98)

[SmootSmack]

According to Rich Campbell, Aldrick Robinson's flight was cancelled due to bad weather

Atogwe also not there-so Doughty, Landry, and Atogwe all not there. Reed and OJ have legit excuses. Not sure what Landry's is.

And Malcolm Kelly not here either. Not really sure why not. But I can't entirely blame him considering his injury history

If I'm Kelly I'd be sequestered in a hyperbaric chamber until the lockout ends and camp begins. He knows this is his last chance and won't risk it for anything. He probably won't take McNabb's calls this year about AZ throwing camp!

Good to see Beck taking a leadership role. If nothing else he's proving to Mike and Kyle that he WANTS to be the man. Whether he's capable of doing so or not is a wholly different conversation. Hopefully though his play 'becks' up his words.

I think it's great that players are getting together on their own, but I don't fault anyone for not attending. One major injury and suddenly everyone will have a different opinion on these workouts. These guys aren't getting paid and aren't covered medically by the league. Some guys are taking on a big risk by going out there. Even if they have their own coverage a major injury could be quite costly on many levels.

My guess is they have injury insurance to cover them during this time. Hell, college kids have it when they are highly regarded NFL recruits. I guarantee you that Andrew Luck has a injury insurance policy out right now.

sure but it's not going to help them recover the millions they could lose out on in free agency if they go down with a serious injury.

Day 2:

Fred Davis and Perry Riley not there. Don't know why

I'd still prefer Rex start at this point

I think just the probability says he's a better option than Beck, but I'm doing the Jags game review right now and it looks like the worst performance by a Redskins QB since Todd Collins against Kansas City in 2009.

I guess I don't know what else to say outside of the fact that Quarterbacks were last a problem here during the Martyball days. So this is somewhat new territory we're treading into.

And even then we went 8-8 after an 0-5 start. Then again we had a defense that year along with a running game. Kind of miss Stephen Davis now. Still both defense and running game in position to improve significantly this year.

Not sure though if Kyle needs to change philosophy or if he's simply been handcuffed by poor defensive play that has forced him to continue throwing the ball late in games. In both of the Grossman video's I've made you can see how much longer the second half is then the first half, mainly because running game has to be abandoned to control clock and attempt to catch up in the second half. Haven't gotten past the first half of the Jags game though, interested in seeing your report.

Rex or Beck is fine with me for this coming year. After that we can see what our options are. As for the FA options I don't see any them benefitting more than our in house personel.

Fletch once again running the workout.

I think just about all the rookies are there

Davis was listed at 255 last year.

Sounds like Davis is prepping to be Shanny's pass receiving TE. I'd like to see him work himself into the offensive scheme.

Here's a look at a leaner, meaner Davis
