Taylor Jacobs Traded

give us info on rumph

NOt another let's argue with Rexi thread! ;)

Here's the skins.com report:

TRADE! Redskins Acquire Rumph (http://www.redskins.com/news/newsDetail.jsp?id=18823)

what you need to know about jacobs

- he has potential(so much so that that single word makes me think of him)

- HE is injury prone(to say that was an understatement would be errrr.... an understatement.)

- HE is a practice beast. He will make you think he is great in the offseason allowing him to slip onto the team. Then he will hurt his eye lash and be out for 3 weeks

- HE is, no, i actually think that is everything there is to know about TJ.All of that is true with Rumph as well, except the 3rd statement. He really wasn't impressing the coaching staff this season and his performance on friday was the nail in the coffin.

give us info on rumphYou can watch him for yourself tomorrow on NFL network ( re-air of 9ers/bears game). He's pretty much done as a CB, his best bet would be at FS though he failed that conversion last year. He doesn't turn his hips well enough to cover pro level WR's. He is a horrible at wrapping up tacklers and takes horrible angles. He can lay the wood however, but whiffs too often. I would be surprised if he makes the roster of any NFL squad this season.

You leave that to Gregg Williams hell buff your coal and make a diamond out of it.

I don't like the fact that we have so many former 49ers, that makes me queesy.

My thoughts exactly. Something just doesn't sit right...it's like getting ALL of the Jets in one year.

If we trade for Alex Smith I'm writing Joe Gibbs a letter.

All I want to know is who is our new whipping boy? I would say Todd Collins but that's too easy and he needs more time on our team? Also, the new guy should be on our roster at least two years. Any suggestions?

Mheisig, with the new baby and the 5-0 academy I'm a little suprised you remember what football is.

I was wondering the same thing. So I basically just went ahead and asked TMC to answer that in his chat.

I think Hall might be a candidate

No no, Todd Collins IS the new whipping boy.

Did you not watch the game last night? He bypassed all "length of service" requirements for being a whipping boy. An INT to a lineman standing six feet away, a stupid safety, and tripping over his own feet all within 5 minutes means he can circumvent all standard Whipping Boy Eligibility Requirements and go straight into the position.
