[quote=artmonkforhallofamein07;725189]I left Dennis Morris, Hodge, and other rookies off thinking they may be practice squad players.

I think 90% off the rookie make it to the final cuts so they are a little protected so they can still make the ps.[/quote]

I agree with this. This cut will be mainly the older vets who were brought in for camp competition.

re: First Cuts: Holmes, E. Williams, Dearth, Davis
 

If you read the article of Redskins.com listed above, apparently he is leading the team in ST tackles, has a sack, a FF, and some defensive tackles.

I left him off just based on reading the article.

C- having not read that srticle I would have thought he has not done much of anything this preseason. With the switch to the 3-4 we need LBs so this may be his saving grace for this season.

re: First Cuts: Holmes, E. Williams, Dearth, Davis
 

Thanks sir, I hadn't read all the articles. Guess he has been a silent worker, good for him.

I thought Beck sounded (didn't get to see the game) soild driving on their first team D. What about one of the three old RBs? Are they going to try to keep all three? I would think Parker wouldn't make the 53 man..

re: First Cuts: Holmes, E. Williams, Dearth, Davis
 

I still hold a bit of a grudge agianst him for bashing us fansfor booing the team last year.

Remember he was the twitter asshole.

That is a good question Bmore. At the beginning of camp I would have said it is definate that WP is gone, now I do not know with the lack of PT ATV has gotten over the last 2 weeks.

I think williams may be holding the edge over Torrian now since he has seen more pt in the last 2 games. Thus leaving a small window for WP to make the squad.

We will find out soon enough.

In fact, this may be the week that we cut lose one of the older RB to let him get a shot on another team.

re: First Cuts: Holmes, E. Williams, Dearth, Davis
 

Bartel, Hodge, Green, Holmes, Robinson

Surprised no one has said Robinson already.

Thats fine, I really do not care to much about it. The kid made a mistake and it just left a sour taste in my mouth, I would still cheer for any redskins who is on our team Matty. Really not that big a deal to me.

Id put money that kelly is gone this round. You dont practice, what is your reason for staying? So we can get a closer look at you ride the ****in pine? Enough with this guy taking up a spot on our roster. BYE BYE

In the event that he CAN play Thursday, I'd keep him around to audition him.

I'm more in favor of putting him in IR, but if they cut him, I couldnt be too upset at this point.

Agreed on your cuts. At worst case they'd try to get what they could for Kelly from someone else first.

This first cut is slender. The real cut is next weekend.

re: First Cuts: Holmes, E. Williams, Dearth, Davis
 

Why the hell would they want an oft injured WR? His butt gets cut next weekend.

re: First Cuts: Holmes, E. Williams, Dearth, Davis
 

Well if this is true, than yes Beck and Bartel both will get lots of game time Thursday - from [URL="http://www.rotoworld.com/content/playernews.aspx?sport=NFL"]rotoworld.com [/URL]:

Rex Grossman told beat writers Ryan O'Halloran and Grant Paulsen that he would be held out of the Redskins' preseason finale.
Coach Mike Shanahan later told Paulsen that "McNabb's status could change how much he plays Grossman." Sitting Grossman for the preseason finale signals that the team doesn't want their backup getting hurt, leading us to deduce that the team is more concerned with Donovan McNabb's ankle injury than they have let on.
