I think most 5th rounders make their respective teams the first year barring a horrible ota/training camp. I don't think he falls into that category at all.

He was the second pick in round 4. He has been impressing coaches during camp, he is going to make the team.

Dan Snyder, Bruce Allen, and Joey T. take the ALS challenge (Snyder donates $10K to the ALS foundation):

Snyder, Allen, Gruden Take On ALS Ice Challenge

According to Keim, the Skins have renegotiated Bowen's deal (no details yet). But hopefully it means some money savings.

I am sure it will be a significant savings, Bowen's salary was $4.5 million .

Re: Set it all aside -- Training Camp Begins

I really thought they were gonna move on from Bowen with the big salary & the injury.

Hopefully, he can get healed and help the 'skins.

Maybe it's pre-season hype again, but I think this DL has more depth than we've seen in quite awhile.

I keep thinking we may have an edge in the 4Q now, having guys like Bowen or Jenkins or Murphy fresh & blowing past tired OL for a quick sack.

(at least it doesn't hurt to dream!)

The problem with cutting Bowen is all his bonus money counts towards the 2014 cap, if they lower his salary in 2014 to $1.0 million they save cap space, and money in the long run. Then cut him in 2015, and they will have $2.5 in dead cap space.

It's a nice thought but when is the last time Bowen or Jenkins blew past an NFL OL for a sack? We still need better backups on the on the DL, IMO.

Re: Set it all aside -- Training Camp Begins

What about Jenkins? High draft pick, 3rd year, time for him to come on strong. He's supposedly have a strong camp.

Re: Set it all aside -- Training Camp Begins

Does anyone still have that friend where if Player _________ is on a new team the only way they could have gotten there is with a trade?

'Yeah now the Redskins have Jason Hatcher so I'm feeling pretty good about our D-Line.'

"When did you guys trade for him?"

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
