Re: Training Camp Updates:
Agreed on Allison. Not sure how much we like Trent Shelton and Marko Mitchell, but Aundrae Allison could return punts for us.

Re: Training Camp Updates:
Its not time to panic Redskin fans. The coaches are just being carefull with our players to make sure we dont have any serious injuries. Our vets are just getting rest so some of the Rookies and younger guys can get some reps. This is a long season so no need to push our proven players who we all know will be starting this season. Lets hope we don't have any training camp or preseason, season injuires to our players. We can't afford to lose any of our starting O-Lineman to injury this year. But of course this is football so our backups have to be ready to step in and dont miss a beat.

Ouch. That hurts. I was rooting for the guy, but maybe it's wishful thinking. Maybe he can be on the practice squad or a short list of people to call if we're desparate. It doesn't sound like he would fare to well against the likes of D Ware, J Tuck, Trent Cole. Damn. |

Given his weight loss & the way he's playing now, if RI is accurate, he'll need several months to adjust. |

Re: Training Camp Updates:
Weren't we expecting this from MW. He is a project with the hope of being on the field around Nov/Dec as a crunch. I would love to see him come out and flatten Daniels (no offense to him obviously) but I didn't expect it. If he pans out its a great story, if not then we gave another long shot the shot. One day we will hit it and dang the world will be good.

I am a little disappointed that he's been so bad by all accounts. Maybe he'll get his strength back over time though. We'll see. |

Re: Training Camp Updates:
A little disappointed with the MW news but I guess we need to check our expectations of a guy who's been out of football for 4 years and needed to drop 100 lbs just to get down to playing weight. Gotta wonder if he can show anything this preseason to prove he's worth the roster spot.

Re: Training Camp Updates:
We'll see how good these guys are when they square up against New England, Pittsburgh, and the Ravens. The situation is suspect until then IMO.

Re: Training Camp Updates:
Bumps and bruises are to be expected and we shouldn't get carried away. I would guarantee that guys like Grimm, Bostic, Lachey etc. had bumps and bruises early in training camp that would keep them out of some practices (often as a precautionary measure) but since we weren't getting hourly updates we probably never realized it.
I think the front office could have and should have done more to address the O-Line this off-season. But let's not pretend they didn't address it. They signed two starting guards in Dockery and Bridges, they picked up Edwin Williams as a UDFA (a guy many thought could have been drafted). They drafted Rinehart last year and he seems to be developing, albeit at a slower than desired pace. Yes they're taking a gamble on Mike Williams (but the risk is pretty minimal), and they may have more faith in Heyer than others but they have taken steps to address the OL. They just need to do a bit more
