Do you have a link? I couldn't find anything anywhere on the net

I just posted the article re: the re-signing of Ohalete.

I'm glad we re-signed him, but for how long and how much? Does anyone know?

Set up the steel cage! Maybe we can get a fatal three-way between Ohalete, Portis, and Sean Taylor for #26. :smashfrea

SKINSnCANES · 05-12-2004, 11:27 PM

Taylor doesnt care, hes got his 36 and is happy. Portis wants his number though.

Daseal · 05-12-2004, 11:54 PM

Maybe Portis should have done what Eli Manning did. He sent the kicker (or punter) for the Giants and his family on an all expenses paid trip to a destination of the players choosing.

In exchange for #10!

I'm not sold on Bowen yet, he took some funny angles last season.

Sheriff Gonna Getcha · 05-13-2004, 07:34 AM

I do remember one time Bowen took a bad angle on a a guy. It was Miami's 1st play from scrimmage and Brian Griese hit (?) on an 80 yard TD pass. Bowen took the wrong angle and missed him, resulting in the TD.

Other than that, it wasn't so much that I saw Bowen take bad angles, it was that he was nowhere near the ball.

I like speed and all, but vision is more important. Ohalete should start opposite Taylor.

joethiesmanfan · 05-13-2004, 08:49 AM

Ramseyfan I agree with you. (In an open competition if Bowen wins then so be it) but I think that Ohalette and Taylor should start with Bowen coming off the bench in certain situations. He does not seem to tackle any better than Ohalette (in game situations that is). and don't forget the Keyshawn Johnson bomb, how you let slow Keyshawn out run you? Imagine what would happen if Bowen wound up on T.O.? atleast Ohalette could run with him. Plus i like the way Ohalette returns picks. Also, we can't go out and get free agents for every position all the time, Ohalette has been developed by the Redskins (good for the cap).

celts32 · 05-13-2004, 11:32 AM

Whoever wins it wins it. No reason to give away jobs in May. I personally think Ohalette has been more of a playmaker than Bowen but this will work itself out in camp.

I have a feeling in Bowen we paid starter money for a decent backup type player.

Hogskin · 05-13-2004, 01:51 PM

I watched all Redskin games start to finish and only recall one play where Bowen took a bad angle. The guy is an excellent hitter and sure tackler - just what you need that position. Don't fire him for one mistake...

MTK · 05-13-2004, 04:13 PM

Bowen and Ohalete are both average safeties with room for improvement, should be an interesting camp battle to keep an eye on.

Defensewins · 05-13-2004, 05:18 PM

I also like Ohalete (slightly) more than Bowen. I think Ohalete had a interception return for a TD? It might have helped win a game?
They are both going to be better this year with better/professional coaching and schemes. Plus last year was a great learning experience for both of them.
