Who Will Be This Summer's Pre-Season Hero

OK, got a new preseason hero.

Chad Englehart.

Tristan Davis really looks the part. I think once he tears it up against some 4th stringers people will be drooling.

I couldn't agree more. T. Davis has to be the running.

He'll be included in my 2035 poll. Greatest Monte in Redskins History: Coleman or Lewis?

Well played.

Let's get some nominees so we can get a poll going before Thursday's opener.

Remember, these are the guys who are long shots to make the roster but will win your hearts this summer and convince you they have to make the roster if we have any shot at the Lombardi (the Sultan McCullough Award)

Guys like Darius Hanks, Trayvon Bellamy, Brian McNally

Wasn't there a WR (Marcus) or something that started this award?

Personally I call it the MM (Marcus Mason) award.

or.... maybe we could give it the Pinapple Jesus award title.

^ Sorry never mind. The award I mentioned is a whole nother thread and award for players not expecting to make the team but do because they light up preseason but do nothing afterwards.

This is more painful than it needs to be.

I say that at 100 times a day at work.

Why wasn't London Fletcher on the list - he is going to surprise some people and make All-Pro this year.

No, I think Mason was a former winner. He did light up the pre-season - two years in a row. After doing nothing in the regular season, and lighting up the pre-season a second time people were screaming that he just wasn't given an opportunity. After being cut by us, he couldn't latch on with anyone. [I think I have that right].

Anthony Armstrong was kinda in the category a couple years ago but I think he has lost eligibility at this point.

I wonder if Travon Bellamy has a brother ......id be waaay coooler if he did.

Maybe this makes me a bad fan, but I literally looked at these names and went, "who are these guys?"

Not you too D-Rave, that's the whole point. Right now nobody is going to know or care about any of these camp bodies, but by the end of preseason we're all going to have fallen in love with one of these players, only for that player to be inexplicably cut on the last cut date, and then go onto a practice squad career with another team, and be out of football in the next 3-4 years.
