we all know how gibbs feels about durabilty and besides I would like to see a line of realative knownamers become a solid unit. I'm kinda sick of being a dumping ground for old vets.

You guys are too harsh on ol' Ade. He still has a lot to offer the Skins:

1) Who mixes the gatorade powder for practice to a perfect lemon-lime consistency? Ade does.

2) Who scrubs that nasty fungus off the shower walls in the locker room? Not LaVar... Ade does.

3) Who is the fastest player on the team when it comes to chasing down shank balls during field goal practice? Ade is!

4) Have you seen Ade's TD celebration dance? It kicks ass - like MC Hammer on crack. If Ade is cut, you may never get to see it - ask yourself if you are ok with that!

5) After LaVar put shaving cream in Sean Taylor's eye as a prank, guess who took charge and flushed out Sean's eyes and held his hand through eye-rehab? He also helped move Sean's crib so that he could get back to the rookie symposium - now that's a team player!

SO - if you are prepared to cut Ade loose, just remember - these things will leave the clubhouse with him. I'm not sure Joe Gibbs or the Redskins will be able to overcome such a devastating hit this late in the preseason.

The biggest reason Brackens was released is the play of DE Paul Spicer, a very underrated DE. As for the injury to the back of his knee, according to the Jaguars team doctors it is a pulled muscle behind the knee. The Jaguars have one of the best young D-Lines in the NFL, they simply felt he would not get much playing time. If he can pass a physical he would be the best DE on our team even at 30 years old.

he would make our rotation much stronger. i say we should give him a try..and he should come cheap...if we offer him an incentive filled contract.

90 Tony Brackens DE

DEFENSIVE STATS

2003 6 Sacks & 1 interception

6 Sacks and an INT. Do we have a DE that had 6 sacks last year?

same here cuz all summer the one thing i've heard the most fans clamoring for is a passrushing specialist but now that there's one(all be it somewhat wounded) who has a very productive career, no one seems to want us to go get him cheap. his injury should be healed in a month or so and he would provide very solid depth at de once he returns and could be another playmaker on the defensive side. I ask what would it hurt to cut one player from our enormous te/h-back pool and sign a player who could be a pretty good pickup at one of our weakest spots?
