Redskins final cutdown thread

with betts
as our third down back thank god we got a good punter
:laughing2

4 Running Backs? Why do we need 4 Running backs? I'm thinking we should of cut Betts or Cartwright and keep our 2009 pick in Williams-FB. Maybe, we can use Betts as some solid trade bait? He could possibly go to someone for some more solid depth at O-line?

I just think I would rather have Jackson on, or Chase Daniel more then 4 running backs. I mean, CP had 350+ carries last year, and I know he's not going to get that many this year, but he will try. I jsut don't see all four of them being as productive as they can be. Rock does a good job on special teams, but I like Thomas back there better. He seemed quicker, and gave us that big play potential.

I guess you can't cut another ST player since we already got rid of 3 before the preseason.

Meh.. 4 RB's is a waste.

I dont see why we keep Westbrook, is he really gonna make it on the field? If Tryon, Barnes, or Westbrook are seeing time anywhere other than special teams, we are in trouble.

Special teams would die if Rock left.
Betts still has some vet savvy that Mason doesn't. He also is a good checkdown back as he has good hands.

Mason may be a '4th quarter back' to run down the clock so CP doesn't have to shoulder that load. I think Zorn still has jitters about Betts after that Seattle game last season.

Westbrook is there because of uncertainty on Carlos Rogers. They pretty much said that is why we carry 2 QBs and 6 CBs.

My only two surprises were Robert Thomas and Jeremy Bridges. I would have never expected D'Anthony Batiste over Bridges.

I have BIG concerns with our O-line depth. I can't believe Mike Williams and Edwin Williams both made the team over Bridges. And Batiste? Um, ok.

i don't think batiste got cut and i bet bridges will be on the practice squad.

I think I am the only one here who still likes Mike Williams for the long run. I didn't expect him to be starting 1st game, or even to be ready to. But he has shown perseverance, he is definitely a power blocker, and assuming he is active on game days, I could see them putting him in on short yardage situations. I think he is going to get to where he is a reliable G/RT backup.

Batiste??? That on the other hand was discouraging. As is the fact that I still have no idea who will back up Samuels for the few games he most likely will be out this year. I don't like having Heyer be the plan for backing him up.

i don't think batiste got cut and i bet bridges will be on the practice squad.

Batiste didn't get cut (he should have, he won't be active for 1 game)

Bridges is not eligible for the practice squad.

I'm all for it if we can sign Tony Pashos to a one-year deal. The thought of D'Anthony starting a game for us should anything happen to Samuals or Heyer scares me.
