Hamilton released and Doughty IR'd? That leaves the safety position pretty dubious behind Horton and Landry. Kareem Moore and.... ??? Two rookies and Laron. Basically if either starter gets hurt we're effed...

Paging Omar Stoutmire. Omar Stoutmire please report to the Redskins.

Omar may be employed by someone else, not sure.

This could actually work out for us. I know that he is not as physical as a runner than Portis but he could help Portis with his patience with the running game. Alexander could actually be a little benefit to Portis in this Seattle west coast offense. A league minimum.

Springs can also play safety if needed.

Sucks for Doughty, I didn't realize his injury was that serious.

As for Alexander at the vet min there's not much to hate. If he's healthy and hungry it just might be a steal.

yeah with horton playing well, reed was a nice lil insurance policy kinda like what we have with heyer/jansen.

geez imagine if we DIDNT draft horton . . . scaaarrryyy.

Well with a one year deal there will be allot for him to play for to show he is not washed up.

Re: Doughty to IR, Alexander offered spot
 

I would look for Springs to be an option at either safety position if Landry or Horton get injured. I'm not sure whether the coaches trust Moore just yet. It sounds as if he should have been blitzing on the Avery play that set up the winning FG for the Rams.

Does this spell the end for the "cobra"

Perhaps not...

Horten has a sprained ankle!!! :(

Re: Doughty to IR, Alexander offered spot
 

I'd prefer getting Marcus Mason back over Alexander. Mason was great in the preseason, knows our playbook, and I thought earned a shot anyway. Someone is going to be smart enough to pick that guy up sooner or later.

Re: Doughty to IR, Alexander offered spot
 

Dont really know anything about Mike Greens career, but wiki says he was the last player taken some years back in the draft and is from Louisiana. Besides the coaching connection he might also be a good role model for Horton.

Re: Doughty to IR, Alexander offered spot
 

i think that the skins picked alexander over mason because they were sure about his ability,and they were'nt sure about mason's.
