[quote=Buster;711017]Impressive. Hope he does well...just not against us.


I wish he had more of a chance under Zorn last year...I don't know why he wasn't used more.[/quote]

Cause Zorn nor any of his coach's knew what the hell they were doing. The Skins must have been the laughing stock to the other teams who had to game plan for us.

Re: Redskins Release 5
 

Yeah...teams must have viewed the Redskins as the ultimate idiots of the NFL, right down there with the Oakland Raiders. I am convinced that any team that wanted to trade/deal with us immediately put a huge markup on what we wanted because they knew Cerrato would be moronic enough to go ahead with it.

Same with players - "What, the Redskins want me? Add $10 million to my salary!!"

Must read on Marko Mitchell.[/quote]

Look, I have a man-crush on Marko Mitchell too, but you have to admit this article is a bit of a stretch for a 7th round pick who was cut by both the Lions and Redskins before the first training camp. He's going to have to compete to even make the roster.

I wish him the best.

Re: Redskins Release 5
 

What a step up for Marko! If Marko makes it he will have Brett Farve throwing to him. Nice.

If you get to the point where you're invited to participate on an NFL team's minicamp, training camp, and even get to play in an exhibition game -- you've had your valid shot.

This.

But hey, not to open old wounds but some still don't think Ramsey got his "fair shot" and he started actual regular season games!

Anybody who can write decently can put up an article on Bleacher Report. There's no more credence to that article than any well-composed opinion on any message board out there.

Him getting picked up by the Vikings means practically nobody else wanted him since they would've been one of the last teams to be awarded someone on the waiver wire.

Doesn't mean that he's horrible, just that he's not necessarily the truth. The article at least points out some of his flaws, those being consistent with guys who can get it done in the college game but don't translate well to the NFL.

Ramsey, Campbell, you name em...

Though at the time I was a Ramsey apologist as well. Neither one of them got the fairest shake but oh well.
