No Redskins WR have attended 1st 2 days of workouts

Receivers all missing from Redskins workouts - Redskins 360 - Washington Redskins Blog - The Washington Times

Pretty disappointing that none of the WR, especially Thomas and Kelly, are at the Park yet. It's just day 2 and all that is going on is some weight lifting and measuring fitness but since so much of our success in '09 depends on their production it would be nice to see them making the extra effort.

I'm not going to ream them too badly (I'm sure there will be plenty of that) since these first 2 days aren't TOO vital and Moss, Thrash & ARE are also not there. They need to be here more than absent though, that's for sure! Let's see them show up at mini camps and training camp in top shape and start erasing some doubts though.

These aren't mandatory. Not serious

They may not be mandatory, but alot of other guys are there. Not the start I was hoping for. You would think that after last year they would be itching to prove something. Maybe that's just me though...

At least all of them aren't there; rather than all but one or two...................at least there keeping it together, you know?

Last year, Santana decided to take it easy during this time of the year to rest his hamstrings. It worked. Kelly and Thomas both had hamstring issues last year, so I'm not too upset about them choosing to not show up right now.

This is true, Its not serious. I thought I read somewhere that MK is rehabing a procedure on his knee? Maybe it was DT. Am I wrong? anyway, I'll bet that Zorn isn't too pleased with this, JC either. If they were trying to practice plays or something like that then I would be concerned, until then you have to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Is practicing plays even allowed in the offseason workout program or is this strictly conditioning type stuff? This program is different than OTA's right?

This is just workouts, weight training and conditioning stuff, not running plays.

Re: No Redskins WR have attended 1st 2 days of workouts

None of us know whats going on. It could possibly be the position coach (cough,cough, Hixon) told them to not show up until Wed. or Thurs after everyone else was finished. Or perhaps cause he's not able to be with them for what ever reason so he said hey come later.

Re: No Redskins WR have attended 1st 2 days of workouts

I think Malcolm Kelly is gonna have to end up getting microfracture surgery or something. Dude's got glass knees.

Devin Thomas is just an immature bonehead.

This isn't that big of a deal, but you'd think that if THEY thought they wanted to make an impact this year, they'd be there like the vets getting ready.

Not really a big deal. But it is worth noting since Zorn's major criticism of them last year was their poor work ethic leading up to camp.

Yeah, not quite Zorn's sentiment there.
