They failed their fitness test. Wr's and DB's are usually the fittest guys on the team. Very surprising they failed.

As long as Zorn knows why they're not there that's all that matters. Could be prior obligations, medical reasons, family stuff, etc.

not feelin it.

In that case I understand. It's hard to resist a nice soggy filet-o-fish.

I just can't give them a pass so easily. They make alot of cash and weren't exactly setting the league on fire last year. Seems like they could find a way to get there for the first day...
Besides conditioning, isn't there route running and such at these things too??

Kelly and Thomas have spent a large portion of the off-season at Redskin Park working out. So, nothing to worry about right now really

Where is the thread about Clinton Portis showing up when he wasn't expected to?

SmootSmack · 03-17-2009, 05:09 PM

Also, I believe Zorn said a while back that Kelly wouldn't be participating in any sort of running drills until later in the OTAs schedule, to rest his knee and have it fully ready for summer and the season

Wasn't Randel El there at this time last year trying to get the playbook from Zorn so he could start running routes?

The obligation to showing up to these mini-camps is similar to showing up to your office's Christmas party.

Do you really want to go?...No, but unless you have other plans you kind of obligate yourself so you don't look like an ungrateful ass.

Let's treat them like any co-worker who didn't show up to that party and not tell them about the Christmas bonus checks that were passed out.

Bust on Thomas and Kelly all you want for not being there but fact is none of the WR's are there. Kinda tells you something. Perhaps they weren't supposed to be there or they were told don't show till later.

What? A thread that's supportive and encouraging? That's unpossible.

There's only three types of people: Those who don't care about off-season workouts, those who only care because they want to know what the heck is going to screw the team over this year, and those who want to make fun of the pessimistic bunch.

Portis didn't chew out any coaches, so he's not going to get any pub.

Kelly's knee problems scare the hell outta me. Season ended for us 14 weeks ago and he's still not running evidently... can someone explain the history a bit here. Did Kelly miss a lot of time in college from this or did his knees start to deteriorate (rapidly) just as his pro career started?
