Knew this was coming if they were keeping Sellers.
Can K Williams block like Sellers? NO. That's why is making the team and Williams isn't.

Snap! I was in the hospital all night because my brother wife had their new baby boy. I just didn't send this one my phone and just realized it when I was checking this thread when coming home. lol
Oh well..
Surprised that Sellers made it with Young looking so solid, maybe Cooley's knee is making him trade bait?

I really thought Sellers would be gone. He's the new Ade Jimoh. And if they keep Stallworth what does that mean for our receiver situation?
Sellers is NOTHING like jimoh. Sellers is actually good. Really really good. The only knock on him is his age and lack of upside. But if it came down to sellers vs williams, I guess our coaches decided williams didn't have much upside either. Between the two sellers is by far the superior player.
The really interesting thing here is what this could mean about royster and paulsen. It could be we decided to keep sellers (2nd rb/3rd te) and royster (4th rb) instead of paulsen (3rd te) and williams (2nd fb/4th rb).
In a way keeping sellers could mean we liked the upside of royster vs that of either paulsen or Williams. A fair assessment in my opinion.

Yeah, the Sellers move is more interesting than Donte, who had a really good preseason. He made it hard to cut him, but the Sellers is a bit of a head scratcher.
Congrats on becoming Uncle Bucket.

Williams will be picked up quick from another team I bet, perhaps Horton too.

If I had to choose, and I may be alone here, I like Paulsen over Royster. I think in the end, they both end up on the roster some day.

C.Russell: Hearing and again this is only from one source that Ryan Torain has indeed made the roster, as originally expected. #Redskins

Hey, you know what would be cool (Mods) if there was an app where we could post from Twitter to Warpath.
