Washington Redskins Official Thread

[Aggies7]

Ok I am not a Redskins fan, but I didnt see this posted anywhere and couldnt find a Seahawks thread. So I figured the Redskins fans can just use this thread as their official thread. Our local 9 news is reporting that a trade of Mark Brunell to the Seahawks is in the works. The trade would mean Seneca Wallace will move to TE and Brunell will take over the #2 spot behind Hassleback. Just wondering if anyone has heard this anywhere else. Mark Brunell was asked about it and did confirm it, but was politically correct and said he was ok either way, but believes the Redskins are moving in the right direction.

I would like to take this opportunity to give this thread a major bump.
Redskins 27 Seahawks 23 - my pick

Early in the week I was leaning towards Seattle, but the latest weather forecast has caused me to reconsider:

Rain and wind. High around 45F. Winds SSW at 15 to 25 mph. Chance of rain 80%. Rainfall near a half an inch.

If that forecast holds the Hawks could be in real trouble. Imo the Skins have the running game to deal with that kind of weather, the Hawks don't.

So now that the search for a head coach has gone on about a month and Spags has said no, what are some of the feelings as to the length of the search. Though I was really hoping that Williams would get the opportunity, I am happy to see that Snyder is doing a thorough search to make sure he finds the right guy and not really the guy to make the big name, which is what I thought he'd do the first chance he got.

He is not looking for a coach, but a lap dog to obey his orders. I am not very confident in the Snyder/Cerrato Show. Dude wants total control of player personnel, playcalling, substitutions, and more. This coaches search is making me very nervous.

Re: Washington Redskins Official Thread

One week untilt the draft and the Redskins actually have a bunch of picks this year... should make it more interesting.

Re: Washington Redskins Official Thread

With the 21st pick in the draft, the Redskins TRADE to the Atlanta Falcons.

Re: Washington Redskins Official Thread

It's like a whole new Skins strategy --- going from not having picks in years past to acquiring extra this year.

Any other skins fans floating aroun?

Re: Washington Redskins Official Thread

I'm here. I am hoping that we take a DE here but there aren't many that I like. Either Groves of Malcolm Kelly should be the pick.

Got Offense?

How about two WR's and a TE... Ha ha ha

Re: Washington Redskins Official Thread

I really don't know what to think about not using the extra OTA that we have available. Especially given the fact that we are installing a whole new offense. But Hey it's Zorn's call. I also heard a lot of positive things about Jason Campbell's progress after this weekend.

Re: Washington Redskins Official Thread

Well Devin Thomas is signed. That is a good thing. I hope he is more than a one year college wonder. I like his size and speed, so I am feeling optomistic about him.

Here is an article about possible postition battles to keep an eye on as camp opens up

Postion Battles

I like Nix, I hope that we can find a place for him on the team.

Re: Washington Redskins Official Thread

Heard Phillip Daniels went down in the first practice of training camp with a knee injury. He's posed to be getting an MRI tomorrow to find out what it is.

Re: Washington Redskins Official Thread

That is not good news, but we do have a lot of depth at the DE position this year. I hope that it is nothing serious but I'm not to worried about it.
