Also just to be clear I dont think he was a good return man but he did his job and didnt fumble kickoffs trying to do to much juking/cuts. That said its more of a sad to see him go thing not really that I think it will hurt the team badly.

As for ARE, I understand that one. We got him to be a punt returner and he failed at that. DOnt think he was horrible as a WR but think Kelly and Thomas will be better. Betts I knew would be gone even though I would rather have him than Portis. I just looked up the rest of the cuts and your right.

Now on to other stuff.......

Is it official we have changed to 3-4? What other changes are we making that im missing. For as quiet as this thread as been I would have thought we havent done a thing.
I definitely understand being sad to see Rock go. But I do think the problem has been letting the personal attachments dictate player movement and roles on the team. Rock's not bad by any means, and should be picked up pretty quickly. But I don't even think he was THAT great defensively on special teams. He pretty much wasn't a liability but I wouldn't really consider him an asset in anything. Nothing against him.

Not much has happened, honestly. Since we signed Boldin I've been itching for some Skins news but I think it's best that things are quiet. I don't think the 3-4 is definite either, I think the media is just throwing that around since that's what the coaching staff has done in the past. All I've heard about it is a bunch of what if's? One interesting thing though is a rumor that if they do go to a 3-4, Haynesworth may see time at DE. If they get somebody worthy of being in the middle that could be really interesting.

Re: Washington Redskins Official Thread

Personally I think cutting Smoot was a pretty bad decision.

Not that he's anything great, but it just adds one more position that we have to address on top of OL, RB, LB, and S after we spend our first pick on a gump emu.

Since Rogers is royally pissed off about the tendering he's a lock to be either traded or leaving next year and Rocky sounds like he'll probably join him so our defense next year will probably be in the same shape our offense is in this year.

Re: Washington Redskins Official Thread

Yeah, I agree with the Smoot cutting, I really thought we should've kept him. I'm tired of Los, and its time for him to go. I put him in that Nick Young catagory, guys who could be good in their leauge, but choose not to work on their game.

Snyder on restrained approach to free agency: "It's really not about the past now. It's about the future."

Shanahan on his plan: "It takes time. It's not going to happen overnight."

Shanahan "guarantees" Portis will attend the start of offseason workouts on Monday.

Shanahan on Carlos Rogers: They had a "great" conversation.

Disgruntled Redskins CB Carlos Rogers has told the team that he will report for the start of offseason work Monday, according to a team source.

Rogers, the ninth overall draft pick by Washington in 2005, has sought a trade for weeks, and he bristled when a first-round tender was placed on him, hoping to garner an offer sheet.

However, Rogers flew to Washington this week from his Atlanta home to discuss the situation with Redskins coach Mike Shanahan, and the meeting went well, according to sources. If Rogers performs well — he was benched at times in 2009 — he will be considered for a new contract.

Rogers left Redskins Park telling coaches and teammates that he feels better about the situation.

Rogers had voiced his displeasure with the organization and publicly asked for a trade on several occasions this offseason

Re: Washington Redskins Official Thread

Also looks like we're closer to signing Larry Johnson, Hope if that dont' take away our fast back that we desperate need.

Re: Washington Redskins Official Thread

They'll draft a back whether they sign somebody else also or not. I have to say, one thing you should be able to trust Shannahan with is picking backs that will produce.
