Redskins Players Gather for Another Workout (Day 3 Notes Start on Post #98)

That would be pretty cool. Just wander around the high schools of Northern Virginia I guess. It's going to be 3 days of workouts

Players around the league aren't disclosing locations for obvious reasons. I know a lot of the footage has see police escorts around the fields. Down here in Atlanta I was curious to see if the Falcons were practicing at one of our nearby high schools as my area has the nicest fields in the state, plus I'm not to far from Flowery Branch which is basically Ashburn for the Falcons

However I was unable to find any reference online to the actual high school the Falcons were practicing at. Pretty sure if I asked around someone would have recognized the location, but my interest only went so far as to find the name of the school. Anyway, I doubt the Skins did anything different.

Kind of elaborates on some stuff I had mentioned earlier about Beck being more of a leader and Rex more of a loner off the field of play

Gotta say I like Beck's hands on approach. That's what you want from your QB.

Agree on Beck, Matty. That's smart what he's doing

Of course he needs to be able to play well too, but he seems to have the leadership angle down. That's a good thing.

Nice to read that we have more players showing up for these workouts then other teams. God knows we need the work.

Carlos Rogers is not there, along with McNabb and Haynesworth.



I'd be shocked if they were there. I expect all these guys not to be there. Hell, Los stayed of actual games b/c he was scared of damaging his value, no way he's going to come to a workout not mandatory...lol

I'm glad many of the guys are getting reps in. Kudos!

According to Rich Campbell, Aldrick Robinson's flight was cancelled due to bad weather

Atogwe also not there-so Doughty, Landry, and Atogwe all not there. Reed and OJ have legit excuses. Not sure what Landry's is.

And Malcolm Kelly not here either. Not really sure why not. But I can't entirely blame him considering his injury history

I think it's great that players are getting together on their own, but I don't fault anyone for not attending. One major injury and suddenly everyone will have a different opinion on these workouts. These guys aren't getting paid and aren't covered medically by the league. Some guys are taking on a big risk by going out there. Even if they have their own coverage a major injury could be quite costly on many levels.
