Updated: Redskins Make Major Roster Cuts

[12thMan]

I already feel a sense of freshness around Redskins Park. Even with the retirement of Chris Samuels and Thomas being letting go. It just seems like a real change of the guard..hmmm.

[SirClintonPortis]

Betts is on 106.7 now.

[Ruhskins]

looks like Griff may retire according to some of the tweets

[GMScud]

I wonder if Betts will ever play again. Not too many teams are clamoring for a career backup on the wrong side of 30 coming off a serious knee injury.

And as far as Smoot's release- SmootSmack, is it time for a user name change?

[Defensewins]

I'd like to see Carter and Portis off of our books. It is time to get some sanity back on the Redskins and their payroll.
.....out with the old....in with the new.
Come on Shanahan and Allen. Pull the trigger. We were 4-12 last year! What do have to lose?

so, does this count as rebuilding?

Most definitely. I also like the decisions made by the team. First time I'm not scratching my head with a WTF look.

This part is the house cleaning

Rock seems upbeat, no harsh words, wanted to finish here but understands the business. Rosenhaus is his agent and he'll expect to hear from him tomorrow or so, wants to go to a winning team.

Ahhh, now mentioning a lot it was just him and Betts practicing because CP didn't want to, thinks that he never got much of a fair shot, written off as the 7th round pick, thinks that he was more valuable.

Decent relationship with CP, but didn't get rewarded for his efforts in practice. Redskins like to "sell jerseys, have names" and he doesn't sell jerseys/make more money. CP is great, thinks he still has something left in the tank, whatever you put into something you'll get out of it.

Gives him chills that he won't be a Redskin anymore, wants to go deep into playoffs/Super Bowl, etc. Bittersweet but time to move on/forward.

In the event Randle EL is released it would nice if we could draft a player like Dexter McCluster of Ole Miss. as a punt returner. That may be a luxury at this point with so many other holes to fill. He's a small guy with a lot to offer but in the NFL would be considered one dimentional. With only five draft picks we're somewhat limited in what we can do.

ARE has been released or will be, not sure if it's official.

[Ruhskins]

So technically our o-line right now consists of Levi Jones, Dock, Rabach, Montgomery/Rhinehart, and Heyer....with Jones and Rabach becoming UFAs in 6 hours.
