Redskins Sign Keenan McCardell

KLHJ2 · 10-02-2007, 01:08 AM

Wahoo, another mediocre WR! I am licking my chops for when Justin Cribbs gets released. Shortest and worst WR corps. in the NFL.

If Moss is out by the way, it looks like Thrash will get the nod (per the Washington Post)

Quote:

The Redskins' primary starting receiver designations are the "Z" -- a position Moss plays that involves lots of shifting, multiple formations and more varied routes -- and "X" -- Randle El's starting spot that is primarily a split end with more vertical routes. Al Saunders, associate head coach, said that if Moss cannot play -- which he thought unlikely -- then "the guy that would step in there would be James Thrash." Randle El also will get some practice work at the "Z" this week, while Lloyd is primarily an "X" and Caldwell began to get practice work at the "Z" last week.

"The easiest position to learn is 'X,' with less variations," Saunders said. "So usually when guys first come in they start at 'X' and [we] get him comfortable, and then give some exposure to 'Z.' "

You gotta be kidding me. Lloyd must really be a joke of a football player if he can't crack the line-up if Moss is out. Why don't they just cut the guy? I guess they can't for cap reasons??

I hope McCardell sees action. Whoever sees action I hope makes more action and helps us beat the Lions! We cannot lose this game!

He couldn't even make the Texans and SD cut him too. Both of those teams stink at WR. So I'm not sure I want him on the field.

We should just put ARE at QB and run the wishbone.

LOL...you're using those two as examples? You'd rather have those jokes of WR's in Houston than McCardell...or you would rather take the word of a guy that fired a hall of fame coach after going 14-2 and losing by a field goal to a GREAT team in the playoffs, to hire a coach that has NEVER produced as a head coach?
Keep in mind, everyone passed on Preist Holmes before he landed in KC and had some of the best seasons of all time.
Everyone passed on Tom Brady saying his arm was weak and fell to the 6th round, and look at him.
Stories like this happen all the time. So you should NEVER take someone elses word for it.
Don't think he's gonna come in and have a 1000 yard season. He won't. He's here for mentoring and he's here to provide leadership and consistancy on the field. The rest is gravy.

I'd be very surprised if Caldwell didn't see some sort of action...especially considering he is younger (so he could stay with the team longer than McCardell) and more importantly he was cut b/c the Patriots upgraded their talent at the receiver spot, not because of non-production, injury, or age. Plus, he has been with the team for a few weeks so one would think he has familiarized himself with the playbook and nuances of the Al Saunders offense. Btw, do you guys think that based on JC's performance at the end of the last game and with a few more WR's, Saunders will take the reins off of JC so he can cut loose in the passing game. Detroit would be the perfect team to do that against.

This is a game which will be key as far as a wild card spot goes.

Good news. Taylor Jacobs was cut today by the Niners so we can go after him too!

LOL.
Last I checked, he was still a WR out of Florida. I'll pass this like joint at a dead concert!

According to Bram on XXX, K. Mcardell is telling the press he WILL play on Sunday. Moss out? I have not heard

I bet Moss is out and ARE and McCardell will start. Or ARE and Thrash start, and McCardell is in the 3 WR sets. B Lloyd gets to watch from the bench as usual!

The Zimmermans · 10-03-2007, 04:39 PM

mccardell is a proven WR that can catch the ball.............caldwell is not that

CHIEF CHUCKING MY SPEAR · 10-03-2007, 04:56 PM
