2011 Redskins Free Agents Rumors and Reports-Part 3

[SmootSmack]

I mean they're saying right now that he's depth for the T positions. But, and I guess it's a problem we've long wished we had, we've now got three starting quality Ts but only two can start.

So it's one of three things 1.) he actually will be depth 2.) Someone (TW or Jammal) is maybe struggling with an injury or 3.) They slide Locklear in at LG and make Kory L. your primary interior reserve lineman. If Locklear can play inside, I'd love to see #3.

Regardless, now with Trent Williams, Jammal Brown, Chester, Locklear (plus Kory L. and the later draft guys we've gone after) you really can't say we've ignored the offensive line these past two years.

Read a report recently (can't remember exactly where) that Lichtensteiger was strugling slightly with his pass blocking. If there is a change at all it could come at LG. Heard any details on Locklear's contract? May give a clue as to what role he'll play.

I love the Locklear signing.
However it seems we keep getting these 70% guys instead of 85% guys.
Mehhhh....I'm an old Hog fan, bigtime.
I'd sell the farm for top OL talent.

I like the signing. Competition is always a plus. But I just don't get the concern or worry about the Center position everyone else is having? Rahbach is gone. Concern should be over. Montgomery filled in admirably when Rahbach went down in the Titans game. If you guys are worried just go back and watch that game again. The OL was a major sieve with Rahbach playing Center. Now they plan on using Montgomery or Lichtensteiger.

But if Locklear plays Center then all the better for if one of the other guys goes down.

Obviously you are not familiar with the theory of diminishing returns

The law of diminishing returns (also law of diminishing marginal returns or law of increasing relative cost) states that in all productive processes, adding more of one factor of production, while holding all others constant, will at some point yield lower per-unit returns.[2] The law of diminishing returns does not imply that adding more of a factor will decrease the total production, a condition known as negative returns, though in fact this is common.

Good for him. I mean, not good that he got released. But he had little to no shot of making it so good that it happened now and he's got a chance to move on to somewhere else

Since when has he had little shot of making it? I thought people were saying he could be a starter. News to me....

Yeah whoever was saying that has no say in deciding the roster. Henson's value was going to be as a special teams player. Unfortunately, being on the PUP list just didn't help him.

Personally, I think they cut him too soon for the team's sake yet not too soon for his sake.

Still don't know what's happening with Chris Wilson

Sad for Henson, whose tweet from the other day now looks prophetic. He's good enough to find a new home when he's healthy.

I wonder why? By all means it didn't sound like he was one of those players that was a bad scheme fit, and all the fans sounded optimistic about his chances of being good this year. W/e though.
