Re: Camp Battles- The journey to 53
 

I also think there's a pretty decent chance we look over roster cuts to find an OLinemen or two. We're better up front in a way (better fit at least with our starting 5) but our depth is putrid. We have no decent backup at T and our practical backup at C is our LG so we'd have to switch 2 positions in the case of one injury.

Re: Camp Battles- The journey to 53
 

I just don't see Banks as taking a WR spot. He's a KR/special teams player who, if pressed, can play a little WR/Scatback. He has his own slot and makes the team. Period.

Austin makes it as a WR who can be a back up PR/KR.

If they keep six WR's, to me, it's Paul on the bubble. I just don't see Stallworth on the team - you don't keep Stallworth as the 4th WR over Austin. The only reason to keep Stallworth is to have available in the 4th WR slot where he would see playing time pretty much every game. He is not a developmental guy who may get on the field (the 5th/6th WR spots) and Anderson easily played well enough to hold onto his WR3 spot. I think Stallworth, good pro that he is, is just the odd man out in this scenario.

Hankerson makes the team. Period.

To me Paul has shown enough to keep around in the 6th WR position. He would be protected and possibly get some game time there but not be relied upon as a producer. Paul would probably not survive for a resign to practice squad, whereas as the Marcus White, Mo Hurt, Nield or B. Thompson some other back end player probably would.

Re: Camp Battles- The journey to 53
 

[quote=FRPLG;830171]Helu definitely has better speed than any of our backs. I think Royster is pretty clearly the slowest though. Not sure what you're seeing there. What Royster does is play the scheme...make a cut and get the yards. Not any break away play-making ability though. Torain is somewhat similar except he seems to burst a little better and pop runs quicker...leaving mroe chance to break a 20 yarder. I don't think Royster has shown enough that we need to worry about other teams getting him.

Hightower and Helu are obvi locks though. No way Helu doesn't make the roster at this point. It'd be pretty unfair to deny him a roster spot and not have given him a chance in the final game to show.[/quote]

Clearly they were giving Royster a long look last night -- kinda tells me they hadn't made up their mind about him. Personally, I like him slightly better than Torain. That's about it. Torain has the edge as far as a big, short-yardage type back. He fits that mold better.

I'm with you on Helu; he has to make the roster.

You don't think Armstrong falls into the "probable" category? He could be close as far as I can tell. Even with the stupid celebratory flip of the ball as he crossed the endzone last night, in my mind Banks solidified his rightful spot on the roster and silenced his doubters. He gives you a dimension that most teams just don't have.

Hankerson -- they're not going to roll out a 3rd round pick to the street in the garbage can. Not after one camp. Based on that alone, he's guaranteed.

It's going to be Moss, Gaffney, Austin, Banks, Hankerson, and probably Armstrong.

You're right, of course. Anyone who is counting WR's should leave Banks out. He is a KR. Put him in the ST category. Has he even lined up at WR during the preseason? I don't think so. Any player at any position could be cut to make room for him.

Also, anyone who thinks that Banks might not make this team needs to get a checkup from the neck up. He may be the most explosive player in the NFL. He [U]will[/U] make this team.

Re: Camp Battles- The journey to 53
 

Banks better be on the roster. Its not even close between say Austin, Armstrong, Paul. I mean is laughable how far apart it is when it comes to the return game.

Re: Camp Battles- The journey to 53
 

Sooo Banks may not make the team right?
It was a sweet run....he stays healthy...man that kid is electric. In a PREseason game they [B]kicked away[/B] from him the rest of the night. HOW long have we waited for that?
HTTR

Big key for Banks will be how his knee holds up today and tomorrow before cuts. If healthy he's a lock

Re: Camp Battles- The journey to 53
 

Cutting Banks would be assinine. I don't care if he misses practice all season with that knee. When he suits up he's the most dangerous weapon on the team. Austin is compitent fielding the kicks but our return game goes from dynamic to ordinary without Banks. If Banks counts as a WR then we need to keep 7. Cut the 3rd QB or keep one less TE or FB.

He's still not 100%, but as long as he's healthy enough to play, and he sure looked like it last night, yeah he's a lock.

Re: Camp Battles- The journey to 53
 

Florida Gator big Mo Hurt got all the snaps at left guard in the second half. Looks like he'll make it over Selvish Capers. Between him and Markus White, looks like we got a few solid depth players in the 7th round. Good to see.

I really had liked Selvish Capers and thought he was a great late round pick last year. Unfortunately, the write-ups this year have been pretty bad. Don't know that he will even end up as practice squad material.

Re: Camp Battles- The journey to 53
 

It's funny how when special teams works, Banks (or another person) gets all the credit, but soon as it fails, Danny Smith is to blame. Did you guys see that hole last night on that punt return? I wished another returner had been back there so we could have seen if the results would have been the same.


Banks: 4.43 in the 40

Paul: 4.40 in the 40

Not much difference there.[/quote]

I don't think it's the speed, but the ability to find that one crease and exploit it. Everytime Banks touches the ball I feel like he may take it all the way, none of our other returners have that same effect, even though they may be productive as returners.

I was on the reverse side of this a couple years back when Rock, I think, was returning. He was no threat to take it all the way, but he was reliable. Now though we have the opportunity to have a bonafide weapon, and I like that:)

Yes. The whole return team should get credit for that TD. Great blocking.

Re: Camp Battles- The journey to 53
 

whole return team gets credit for sure, but Banks has the ability to hit it & change directions on the fly. Banks is worth keeping even if his knee isn't entirely healed. In addition to the TD he impacted field position on several punts when they wouldn't punt it to him. If he's returning kicks & the wind is strong/kicker's leg is weak, they will try to avoid him then too & that will impact field position in our favor.

Re: Camp Battles- The journey to 53
 

[quote=CRedskinsRule;830236]I don't think it's the speed, but the ability to find that one crease and exploit it.[/quote]

True. I watched the highlight over a few times to see who the "blocker" was that was catching up to Banks, and it was Paul. Banks does seem much more elusive though.

My problem with Banks is that opposing teams can kick away from him everytime if they want. If he does too well, he works himself out of a job. At least unitl the fix the stupid Kick-off rule.

I have been thinking that if Logan Paulson gets cut and cellars serves as our back up tight end and fullback. That would help them keep more runningbacks and recievers.

Re: Camp Battles- The journey to 53
 

I would rather keep Paulson at TE/FB than Sellers as FB\TE. I know he hasn't played at FB and that I am being silly a little. I have hard time keeping Sellers around after the past couple years and Paulson has been solid in everything I have seen him do.

Agreed, Paulson is good at the GL. Sellers has had some trouble making catches in the past couple of season...a lot of big drops. He's done. Loved his play when he was still capable, but his play has regressed.

Keiland Williams will be a fine backup FB. Darrell Young is an exciting player, especially when he gets the ball in the open field. He should be our next Sellers...possibly better for many years to come.

I think he is on this team as much as Moss is.

Banks was hurt I believe when he ran that 40.

Also straight away speed isn't the be all end all. Banks sets up his blocks well, makes good decisions, and is one of the quickest and most agile players through traffic in the league. He has IT. Whatever IT is he's got it when it comes to catching a ball and getting to top speed immediately and then making guys miss. He's an absolute threat to go to the house every time he has the ball.

I wouldn't hate Austin as a kick returner against most other KRs in the league...but against Banks he is a distant second to me.

No way they keep seven wideouts. Last year they had six. I think Niles Paul is headed for the PS. I have no argument with your player selections -- though there has to be one more dude who makes it. Probably linebacker; last year they had nine.

Re: Camp Battles- The journey to 53
 

Banks is a lock, no other way around that. A guy punches in a 95 yarder, he's doing what he's hired to do and then some.

Rob Jackson did himself a lot of good last night, even if it was against the second stringers. I think it's going to be hard to keep him off the field.

The more I see Paulsen out there, the more I like him. He reminds me of one of those old school Redskins. He just shows up and puts in work. No flash, no sizzle but he he knows how to put a hat on his guy and move him.

Jammal Brown has very quietly had a solid preseason. Anytime his hip issues aren't flaring up, that's a good thing. I hope he can stay healthy down the stretch.

At this point, I think Donte Stallworth is really auditioning for a job on someone else's roster. Don't get me wrong, he'd be a great addition but he's simply not a part of our long-term plans and this year it's a numbers game at wide receiver. I'm pretty sure he'll land on his feet somewhere.

Mike Sellers had a really good last outing, but I still don't see where he fits at the expense of a marginal upgrade and letting go of someone really young that has a future in this league. I guess the question is what one position is Mike Sellers really impacting that hasn't already been locked down by someone else? I can't think of one. If the argument is depth, then I'm not sure that's a good enough argument to keep a 37 year old fullback.

Paul doesn't make it to the PS, another team will scoop him up on waivers. That's the only reason he stays on the 53 I think. With Banks, I agree with what KI Skins Fan said, he is really only a KR but WR is his position group. He won't see any actual time at WR though.

Well, if they do, I'm not exactly going to put a pistol in my mouth ... Niles Paul has good speed, good size, but there just weren't any absolute stand-out plays from him. (Same goes for Leonard Hankerson, btw) To me, that's the best way to make sure you don't get put on the practice squad.

His best chance would have been to take the place of Anthony Armstrong -- in my mind, he was the one guy among the "guaranteed to make the roster" who might have been on the outside looking in. But I just don't think that happened.

Hankerson has been getting better the last 2 games and will make the team, you just don't cut a 3rd round pick after one year.

Not sure about the official rule, but if the team that claims you promises a spot on the active roster, why wouldn't you go?

I like what I've seen from him and others do too:

[B]Niles Paul – The rookie wide receiver got the start opposite Anthony Armstrong with Moss and Gaffney receiving the night off. Against Tampa Bay, Paul looked solid as he has all season, making three catches for 21 yards.

He also contributed on special teams, and that’s the area he can best help the team. John Beck went to him in the end zone twice, but Paul didn’t score either time. One time was Beck’s fault, as he threw a high-arcing pass that ended up getting picked off by D.J. Johnson. The second time, Paul cut in rather than out while running a fade that he would’ve been open for had he been in the right spot.

Still, coaches love the 6-foot-2, 222-pound Paul’s size and speed. Like Stallworth, however, he’s at a very crowded position.

Best guess: Practice squad.[/B]
