[quote=Dirtbag59;930804][B]To me a lot of those strike me as the type of guys that you could stick in as a third option [/B]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.[/quote]

Yeah that's pretty much what I was talking about. Baker sounds ready to go, and let's face it Neild is a rotation guy at best.

Damn but he was being pushed big time by Baker who plays both end and nose. I think Baker had the inside track on the roster spot. Good surgery can have him back 100% next year. Our season doesn't hinge on having Nield or not.

[quote=Dirtbag59;930820]That reminds me. Isn't it about time we blame the training staff? :D[/quote]

Nah, I'd rather go with either Graham Gano, Doughty, or Hall. LOL.

How does he keep earning a roster spot? Everytime I see a Redskin player make a bad play, all I can think is "man Reed Doughty sucks." I don't get why we let guys like him fill in depth roles on our team, we should just sign a bunch of starters to be our backups so that we have the best most awesome complete team in the NFL!

Sad. Hope we put him on IR and he can get back in shape for next year.

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

Neild was impressive in the opener last season against the NYG. How many rookie defensive linemen can claim they sacked Eli Manning twice in their very first NFL game? But he was average most of last season. Word has it that Chris Baker was pushing Neild hard to become the back up NT. Maybe by injuring his ACL and being put on IR at this early stage of the preseason, Neild actually survived being waived. I hope he can come back next season very determined.

Nield was a rotation guy but in his 2nd year I think we all hoped to see him take the next step and really contribute in short yardage or to sPell coffield. He seemed like a good blue collar guy in the trenches. Stay hungry Nield- see you next year.

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

Jenkins was a bigger lost last year then Neil this year. Neil had a few highlights but nothing to get to excited about.

Whenever I see your handle at a glance, all I read is SheHulk.

I expect he'll be back, but keep in mind technically he was waived so it's possible someone will claim him today. We shall see

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

Anyone know exactly how it happened? Did it just kind of pop like Jankins last year or did he have someone roll on it or fall into it?

We were all pretty surprised when Neild made it over Bryant last year. So if Baker was doing better than Nield and Nield is an upgrade over Bryant then it sounds like we are starting to get some really good depth at NT.

Either way after Neild's huge game last year i became an immediate fan. I feel like he didnt get enough snaps at all last year and really wanted to see him play this year. If he can stay focused a year away from the game working on his technique and trying to get bigger, stronger, and faster might help him.

Looking foward to him coming back strong next year.

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

Would have loved to have him, but as long as Baker is healthy, I don't think it's going to be as bad as it could have been.

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

Chris Baker has just about won the back up NT job. Neild proved his worth last season as a 7th round draft pick rookie. All Neild has to do is rehab and work on his strength and conditioning. I look forward to seeing Chris Neild back in '13.
