Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

[URL="http://www.redskins.com/gameday/default.jsp?gameId=82"]Washington Redskins[/URL]

In the projected starters section it says Rick DeMulling will start at RG and Fabini at RT... I dont know much about DeMulling but at least he has got to bet a better run blocker than Fabini... right?... i hope... I wondered why we picked this guy up and he hasnt seen much action w/ all of our injuries, is he any better than Fabini?

but on the bright side it seems like we are going to have Marcus back...maybe

Not good news at all. Another reshuffling of the offensive line. :doh:

Re: Wade out? Deulling to start at RG
 

Hmmmm, interesting catch. I didn't see anything about it in the Post and JLC says both Rabach and Heyor were back in pads today. Didn't mention anything about Wade, although it was pretty clear that he was hurting last week with the groin (a point that Coach Joe emphasized when he talked about the 'guy who didn't think would play all week' but who battled through anyway - he was pretty clearly speaking about Wade). You'd hope DeMulling would be better than Fabini in the run game, at least better in space, but there was a reason the guy was sitting on the street in week three or whenever the Skins signed him so I wouldn't get your hopes too high. Plus, in this scenario you'd still have Fabini playing but now his deficiencies in pass pro would become apparent (he has done alright in pass pro at RG, but he is more protected there than he would be at RT). Still, without some confirmation this could just be a typo.

JLC said that only Rock & Thomas were not at practice today. Here's the link:

He's also often said that on the skins web site projected starters are often wrong. The exception was Montgomery at DT in week 1.

They may have put it up like that last week when they weren't sure about Wade & just never changed it. I sure hope fabini isn't starting at RT!

Re: Wade out? Deulling to start at RG
 

Matty could you correct the title for me, i tried but couldnt...typos kinda drive me crazy.
Fabini was solid in pass pro on the inside but i seem to remember Phillip Daniels lighting him up BAD a couple years ago when he was playing tackle for the cowboys, which really concerns me going against the Pats esp. Adalius Thomas.

Re: Wade out? Deulling to start at RG
 

Yeah, it wasn't Fabini. It was Tucker or something like that...

Re: Wade out? Deulling to start at RG
 

7 more weeks is the time frame for Randy Thomas. Wow, Maybe we should have IR-ed this guy. We are looking at Dec 16th or 23rd to have him back? The season could be over by then.

If we're alive for the playoffs it could be a huge boost for the line to be able to bring him back. If we can afford to keep him off IR I'm all for it.

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

Alright so maybe this isn't accurate news. I really hope it's not. I think at this point in his career Fabini is better suited for playing guard where he has less space to operate in.

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

I really hope this is wrong too...I guess the official injury report come out Thurs. Buges must have a reason for not playing DeMulling and sticking w/ Fabini...

Randy would give us a HUGE boost by coming back no matter when as long as we are still in contention.

You sure it was Tucker? I swore Fabini was playing RT for them during that game. Which i was the main reason i wasnt a big fan to bring him in here to back up at RT

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

I think it was Torrin Tucker honestly. I think Fabini played for them then, but he was owning Tucker, not Fabini.

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

we should think about our OL situation in the next year's draft

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

It was rookie Rob Petitti (what a fem name for a tackle!). Fabini signed w/Dallas in 06:

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

on second thought, maybe it was tucker or someone else, cause that year daniels was playing right end so was beating the LT. F. Adams was injured then I believe.

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

Thanks Freddy now i have no reason to hate Fabini... well except for his run blocking skills (or lack there of) I was wondering, I mentioned above that Bugel prob has his reasons but DeMulling a career guard is not as good at guard as Fabini a career tackle? I just think we need to get the run game going and from what i have seen Fabini is far and away the weak link when it comes run blocking, why cant DeMulling get on the field?

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

thats good news cause we dont need another injury to the offensive line.

good question. Sounds like Fabini can pass block & Demulling can run block, but I guess it's too tough to sub o linemen like that.

Both are guys that were cut in the offseason so they're not exactly starting material anyway.

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

I don't think this is accurate--JLC and Gibbs himself didn't report it, and Gibbs had a list of those not practicing. So if it's anything more than a typo on the skins.com roster, it's not injury related.

The good news is Rabach and Washington went full-go today.

It was Torrin Tucker.[URL="http://www.redskins.com/news/newsDetail.jsp?id=5593"]Daniels, Defense Keeping An Eye On Dallas[/URL]

[quote=bertoskins2;368551]we should think about our OL situation in the next year's draft[/quote]I say draft the best DE available in the first round, then spend the rest of the draft on the O line.

Yup. get a back up guard and tackle in FA then draft #1 for DE then alternate OL /WR / OL / WR .....serious.

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

As long as we are getting off topic and talking about the draft ... wouldn't it be sweet to have Chris Long? That dude is a total beast! But I guess that would mean the Skins were picking towards the top of the draft so I'll have to defer the dream. Wahoo Wa nonetheless.

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

Bottom line to this thread: our 2nd string o-linemen suck donkey balls!

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

Man,
Something has to change, Fabini stunk at guard and Wade is somewhat weak at RT.
Remember DeMulling came in late and probably didn't even have the plays down last week. It could be that he is better than Fabini.

We cant go wrong for trying DeMulling at RG.
Hell, if he's ok, maybe we put Heyer in at RT...I doubt they would make both changes in 1 week though.
If healthy, I'd expect DeMulling at RG and Wade at RT (pure speculation)

After all....somethings gotta change....either that or we become a passing team.

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

what about Mike Pucillo for RG?
Maybe we could put him there....or does he stink too?
The way I remember it, he didn't do too well at center.

Will the best RG pa-leeze stand up?

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

I also think the backs are somewhat to blame for this lack of a running game. The offensive line isn't creating gaping holes, but even when there is a hole, Portis isn't making anyone miss. Betts has been playing better of late, but he's still only hovering around 3 YPC for the season, which is crap.

We are past 2nd string. These guys are reacting to an impossible situation and lets maintain some perspective.

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

Actually, this was the same projected starting lineup before the Cardinals game as well. I was going to bring it up, but didn't feel like it.

Re: Wade out? DeMulling to start at RG
 

Well now you did. Don't you feel like a procrastinator? ;)

Next week I'm thinking of mentioning that the Redskins have fired Norv Turner ;)

Anyhow, latest depth chart has Fabini at RG, Wade at RT
