Redskins Release 5

Sultan McCullough anyone?

Really???

Still wouldn't be totally shocked to see T.O. come here.

I can understand the Marko cut somewhat. However, I can't really help but feeling he would have been better than a 38 year old Galloway. I mean how much can he really have left? Did he even play last year?!?!?

I think these cuts and their timing is meant to send a message to the rest of the roster to get off your asses and work hard. I like the move. Nothing like fresh blood in the water to motivate.
Monty getting cut is a no brainer.
Thomas and Kelly no longer have Vinny here to protect their roster spot. Time to produce or get the F out.
I am still amazed to read posts that say I doubt Galloway will take Kelly or Thomas' roster spot. Why not? If Shanny deems Thomas and Kelly not NFL worthy then Shanny will cut them regardless of who takes their spot.

I agree strongly w/your first point, and disagree as strongly w/your 2nd. Shanahan isn't likely to cut young guys like DT & Kelly in favor of Galloway, who might have another year in him. If one of those guys shows up really out of shape & drops everything, sure they can get cut, but its so unlikely. Even then I doubt it would be for the sake of getting Galloway on the roster.

I'm actually glad we got rid of Montgomery. I was tired of holding on to a low draft pick waiting for him to perform better than expected.

Time to being in the younger, better talent. Hail to the Redskins.

And only one of those guys has a Super Bowl ring...I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'

Not totally surprised with Mitchell getting released, but after the minicamp? Not sure why folks got all excited about the kid? He had a decent preseason, but was up against 2nd-3rd string defenses most of the time. Plus he came from Nevada, a pistol offense heavy on the run. The move also tells me we got the vet WRs to compete to play and not just to light a fire under the newbies' butts. Don't be surprised if Shanny releases another newbie later on when the roster has to hit 53. I hope Mitchell actually pursued a real degree at Nevada and not the typical basketweaving ones like Phys Ed or a general Communications degree. It is a 50/50 chance somebody is going to pick him up. Getting released at minicamp isn't very good.

I'm a Phys Ed/Health major at Longwood University I wouldn't call it a basketweaving major. At my school it is actually one of the harder education programs to get out of and requires a higher GPA to stay in the program then our Business school and requires the 2nd most credits to graduate out of the entire university. Don't hate on PE

Let's not forget Mike Espy.
