Official Redskins First Cuts Thread

Ha! That's going to be an interesting introduction/conversation at Lions' camp.

Yeah that would suck.

Beau Reliford...pack your stuff

TE Beau Reliford cut. I was actually kinda hoping to throw him on the PS. Good upside with alot of question marks with our TEs. Oh well.

Good Riddance. The only thing I respected him for was hitting Javhid Best so hard when they were playing college ball he made the guy puke.

Other than that Barnes stunk.

Now watch him go have a pro-bowl caliber year like Rogers.

Among the players picked in the third round after Barnes.. Mike Wallace 4 picks later, Ladarius Webb 8 picks later, Deon Butler, Jerraud Powers taken 11 and 12 picks later.. Another Vinny GEM! F'n loser.

"big" cut now confirmed....Kevin Barnes...you ain't gots to go home, but you gots to go

Per Grant Paulsen: he was released.

I just got off the phone with Kevin Barnes. The #Redskins have released the veteran CB and Maryland product.

Per John Keim traded to the Lions.

Kevin barnes said he was traded to detroit. Just talked to him. Initially he thought he was being released. Not sure for what yet

There are a lot of question marks with our TEs? Really? Davis is a potential All Pro (giving him the benefit of the doubt re: weed), Paul has played well, Cooley or Paulsen gives depth. I don't think we will suffer by not being able to retain our 6th TE on the PS.

Here is the whole list

Special Teams:

Neil Rackers (per Adam Schefter)

Offense:

Antwon Bailey, RB (per Mike Jones)
Lenon Creer, RB (per Grant Paulsen)
Sam Kirkland, WR (per Emmanual Benton)
Lance Lewis, WR (per Grant Paulsen)
Nick Martinez, OL (per Chris Russell)
James Lee, OT (per Grant Paulsen)
Tony Moll, OL (per Boyer)

Defense:

Morgan Trent, CB (per steelz)
Kevin Barnes, CB (per Grant Paulsen) (traded to Detroit, per John Keim... awaiting details)
Monte Lewis, LB (per Emmanual Benton)

Maybe it was just part of the cuts. How many do they have to cut?
