Official Redskins Final Cuts Thread

I'm not against bringing him in but I just don't know if he's better than helu or Morris

If they bring him in, he'll be the 4th back behind our current three.

And especially since there's talk of bringing Hightower later in the season when he's healthier. No one knows if Hightower will be claimed by someone else, I highly doubted at this stage of his health status.

According to the Miami Dolphins website Slaton was cut today.

I don't know how I feel about bringing him in, honestly I was of the mind set that they needed to keep four RBs since there always seems to be a decent amount of injuries to Shanny's backs.

Hightower to me is the guy I want, but I would take Slaton if they don't feel TH can get back at it this year.

That and we were talking about getting him for a guy we were going to cut anyway. Free player with some upside.

Slaton is better then any back we have atm. People are on the Morris train right now but the guy is running over 2nd teamers and the Colts. Who couldnt stop my high school team from scoring last year. Helu should be the starter is we dont end up getting Slaton. Hes our best back, only thing is... People say he has durability issues.

If he was so good why is he waiting for his 3rd team? He is no Darren Sproles.

I have a legitimate question here... Why is everyone so worried about signing Steve slaton? U do realize he's not any good right?

IKNOWRIGHT?! cuz no 1's ever done better in a different system or returned 2 former glory when they change scenery like ever... ever ever. just sayin'

[edit: don't care about Slaton personally]

His two banged up achillies tendons and his injuries last year say he's got durability issues.

Of course Slaton may very well be a flash in the pan. He had his own injuries if memory serves me correctly and he certainly hasn't done anything recently.

That said he also might have been Pushed out of the ideal system for his skills by a guy called Arian Foster.

So what I'm saying is: the guy might make a nice insurance back who has at least some plausible possibility of returning to a form that would make him pro bowl RB. Stranger things have happened... we are talking about Football after all.
