The Redskins have signed defensive tackle Babatunde Oshinowo, the team announced on Tuesday.

To make room for Oshinowo, the Redskins released defensive tackle Zarnell Fitch, who signed with the club over the weekend.

"Oshinowo, 6- and 325 pounds, spent the final three games of 2007 on the Chicago Bears active roster. He played in a reserve role in one contest. He spent most of the season on the Bears practice squad. Oshinowo was drafted by the Cleveland Browns in the sixth round of the 2006 NFL Draft. He played college football at Stanford, where he posted 15 sacks in 44 games."


Boy, Zarnell didn't spend much time, eh? Didn't even get a chance to hit the practice field!!!


BTW, his full name is....
[B]Babatunde Oluwasegun Temitope Oluwakorede Adisa "Baba" Oshinowo, Jr.[/B] [Ba-ba-TOON-day OH-shi-no-who]

If you look at the pronounciation I put with the name in the first post, you could clearly say it to yourself, and hear it's African.

Re: Redskins Sign Oshinowo
 

I think That Guy mentioned him a couple of years back when he was on the draft board

Re: Redskins Sign Oshinowo
 

He looks stoned out of his mind.

Re: Redskins Sign Oshinowo
 

This guy was a Baller at Stanford and with a little help should break the starting line up. Ok, who is this guy?

Re: Redskins Sign Oshinowo
 

6ft 325 is a little big is'nt it???

Re: Redskins Sign Oshinowo
 

Very similar to Amobi Okoye from the Texans (as far as size). Teammates call him Ba-ba (not made up).

Re: Redskins Sign Oshinowo
 

Is Redskins.com selling his jersey yet?

Re: Redskins Sign Oshinowo
 

First, the ink has to dry on the contract. Then they make the jerseys.

I was just going to say the same thing!

Re: Redskins Sign Oshinowo
 

How many tackles will he need in an Exhibition Game before someone here projects him into the Pro Bowl this year?

Three? Four?

Re: Redskins Sign Oshinowo
 

I was just relaying training camp info. I don't believe he's going to make the team. Thanks.
