thrash is one of the best gunners in the game, and our young WR's around him will see his work ethic everyday... well worth the money

Lets face it.....James Thrash is getting old and his salary is increasing
reasons to drop James Thrash
1) Redskins have better offensive weapons than Thrash :
Our Redskin recievers (Moss, Lloyd, and Randel El) and Tight End (Chris Cooley) are all extremely talented players. James Thrash is not very talented
2) He could be considered as a good Special Teams Player......but lets get down to earth now, we HAVE RANDEL EL for Special Teams. Thrash is no longer needed. And if you go back and watch thrash's kick and escpecially punt returning he was pretty bad.
3) If we get rid of Thrash we can use his salary to bring better players to the Redskins team
4) Thrash is injury prone
5) Redskins have plenty of depth on the offensive end

2) he's a monster as a gunner on coverage, where he always draws a double team and as a blocker that won't miss his assignments. he can FC, but that's not why he's good on special teams.

3) oh yeah, who? who is going to improve our team right now for 875k? who's even available? why should our #5 WR be farris or jacobs when thrash can actually catch balls every now and then?

4) that's a lie. in the previous six years he's missed a grand total of 1 game. he missed 4 last year... how the **** is that being injury prone? (in the 2 years before that he wasn't even an every game player, but missing games due to talent issues does NOT constitute being injury prone).

5) so you rather keep jacobs over thrash cause the depth is "good enough"? come on. there's no reason or need to dump a player that'd lower overall team talent if he wants to be here and his salary can't be used to get someone better. therefore there's absolutely no good reason to release him.

how many teams only carry 4 WRs into the season? we did last year, but gibbs himself said it was a really oddity to do that right at the start (of the season), and it bit us down the stretch when jacobs and farris were forced into starting roles.

James Trash as he may be deserves to put a ring on his finger for endouring the drought. He has heart and Better keep making takles on special teams

Thrash's our best gunner on ST and in third down situation he does the little things to get himself open. Simply put, he ain't getting cut!

We should have never let Thrash go in the first place. He was a true Redskin from the start.

At this point in the game I think there is no reason to cut ANYONE for being too expensive. We are under the salary cap with plenty of money to sign our rookies and have an IR fund. Are we trying to save Snyder some money here? We need to keep the most talented guys on the roster, and I believe that Thrash, with his special teams skills, is definitely one of those guys. But if someone beats him out in camp, so be it...I just dont think its likely to happen!

To reiterate my point about Thrash (and Patten): We are under the cap. Why try to save money?

We all keep talking about Thrash, Patten and Jacobs. Right now I would think 2 of these guys will stay and 1 will be gone by September. It is unrealistic to think the Skins will pick up another WR after the June 1 cuts to replace any of them. Why! Because who is going to want to come to the Skins to be a 4th or 5th receiver? No one, other than the guys we have now. Other than these 3 guys someone may really shine during camp and take Thrash or Patten's place, but I think we have our WRs in place it is just a matter of figuring out who will be 4th or 5th. I think 5WRs is all we will carry on the roster.

Facts are cool.

Don't forget that Thrash caught the 4th and 3 play that set up the comeback against Dallas. He makes good plays and never makes bonehead ones...
