[quote=Chico23231;930753]Good thing we went out and grabbed Baker. Imagine we go with just 2 NT at this point. Extra spot maybe helps Gholston/Scott make the squad.[/quote]

Indeed. Cofield is durable and Baker is on the up-swing.

Jenkins and Golston can also play NT, you could probably stick Carriker there in a pinch too. I think we'll be ok.

bad news, he was contributing. best wishes to him in his recovery. time for baker to contribute.
any fat tub free agents worth looking at? sam adams isn't 40 yet, but his number was in my old phone and that phone is in the ocean.

side note - did neild change numbers? he wore 95 as far as i knew, but the photo of him in this article seemed to show him wearing 66, honoring the late dan turk?

This is truly sucky news for Neild and his development. But the D should be just fine in spite of this news.

Believe me, if a backup NT is our worst news right now (knock on wood) then we're in good shape. Better than it being a starter like RG3, Orakpo, Fletcher, etc.

It just means it's Chris Baker's year, glad he is on the roster, makes the injury more bearable.

I hate injuries.

re: Neild Placed on IR, Redskins Add DL Marlon Favorite
 

Damn! Damn! Who will fill our beard quota now? As Lotus mentioned, this mainly sucks for Nield and his development. I don't think we'll have a big problem with players filling in for him, this is why Shanny preaches versatility. I hope he comes back strong next year.

DAMN.....it
Love this kid.

Who the hell is Gholston?

re: Neild Placed on IR, Redskins Add DL Marlon Favorite
 

Crappy news. He did well in relief last year. Second year in a row one of our DL went down in TC with a ACL tear.

To me a lot of those strike me as the type of guys that you could stick in as a third option in the 3rd quarter where the injury bug takes a big bite out out of your depth. Jenkins I actually think would be good but at the same time I feel like his talents are best used at End and putting him at NT means taking away potential snaps at End.

I think it's in our best interest at this point to find an Anthony Bryant type player to fill that roster spot. Better yet just bring back Anthony Bryant. Obviously the guys not a world beater but he works as a space eater. Then again maybe this Chris Baker kid will be that player.

Last year Jarvis (Me!) Jenkins and now this year Neild. AHHH, that sucks so bad. I was really high on him doing well this year.

That reminds me. Isn't it about time we blame the training staff? :D
