Keenan Robinson, Phillip Thomas, Chris Thompson, Chris Baker, and Robert Thomas are a few of the guys I am looking at.
I'm getting stoked on Murphy, Amerson and Robinson, based solely on reports and interviews, however. If they have good seasons it could go a long way for us.
I'm starting to be convinced that our defense needs to be middle of the pack for us to contend for the division. I think our offense has a chance to be that good...

Allen reported to Mike Shanahan at the time. He didn't have the authority to overrule Mike's decision to start RGIII in Game 1 last season.
Griffin was cleared by the doctors to play. Allen completely contradicted himself. He should just keep quiet.

Watching the offensive line and linebackers this preseason.
Really looking forward to seeing Robinson get in there. I think he's going to give the defense a much needed upgrade over Fletcher.

If you can't wrap your head around the idea that the GM of the Washington Redskins was intimately involved in the decision I don't know what to tell you...
You could tell the truth and admit that you don't know whether or not Allen was involved in the decision to start RGIII.
Even if Allen was involved, nobody was going to tell Shanny how to run the team. Contractually, he had full authority over football operations. Dan Snyder was the only person who had the authority to stop Shanny but the only way Snyder could have stopped him under the terms of Shanny's contract was to fire him.

I agree with you that Allen should just let it go.

I must have missed it, but where did Allen say "I told everyone not to play Robert, but they wouldn't listen to me"

LOL !!!! I always thought that the head coach / trainers / team doctor made that call . Can't recall B. Beathard telling coach Gibbs who to sit ?

I really like Trent Murphy. If the D-line stays healthy, maybe 5-6 sacks?

Stays healthy? It's more like gets healthy.

It sucks, but that is a good point. Barry is and Hatch will soon, I think, but not so sure about Bowen. A few days ago, he said he was confident he would be cleared to practice in the next two weeks, but who knows.
If they're healthy, though, along with Rak and Kerrigan, Murphy will have some chances to get some sacks. I don't think 6 is an unreasonable goal.
