Redskins June 2009 OTAs
 

Redskins are back to work with OTAs. I thought it would be a good idea to have a thread to discuss them. A good recap on the first day from redskins.com:

Some things to note...

- Some vets out for the first day (Landry, Portis, Fletch, and Sellers)
- Rogers and Barnes out sick
- Orakpo still practicing at SLB
- Malcolm Kelly participated fully on the first day
- Heyer expected to take over at RT, faces competition
- Williams back at 385 lbs.
- Samuels is back at his LT spot

i like the things that were said about m.kelly by zorn, sounds like he is on the way. i hope that d.thomas is able to do the same, and make this a bout for the 2nd receiver position.

Re: Redskins June 2009 OTAs
 

I like hearing that Malcolm is out there running routes at full speed. I really don't like that we're messing around with switching Orkapo's natural position.

Well they sure as hell had a beautiful day to start June OTA's. It was glorious today in the DC area. I'm not gonna lie, I took about and hour and half in the middle of the day today and played a quick 9 holes. It was great.

Well, everything (generally) appears to be going well for the team.. I just hope they would be able to continue this out through to the season..

Re: Redskins June 2009 OTAs
 

yay for M. Kelly! I am definitely excited about let's hope he makes to the regular season.

Re: Redskins June 2009 OTAs
 

Good for Kelly, hopefully he can stay on the field and be productive for us.

Re: Redskins June 2009 OTAs
 

Good to see Kelly out there, this guy could make a big difference in our offensive production. Thomas is looking good also.

Re: Redskins June 2009 OTAs
 

Im really interested to see how long Orakpo lasts at SLB. When we drafted him, I never imagined that we'd use him there.

Where did you play at? I keep wnating to hit up Cross Creek, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

Re: Redskins June 2009 OTAs
 

Samuels sounds like he's in shape..

Just a quick 9 at Sligo Creek. It's normally a goat path, but I couldn't believe what good shape the course is in. I guess a month straight of nothing but rain will do that. It was really enjoyable. The old fella in the clubhouse said it was the best conditions he's seen in all his years working there. My friggin putter was killing me yesterday. I'd like to hit up Cross Creek, too. I think I played it once back when I was in high school, but I don't remember. I remember Hampshire Greens being a fun course, but I haven't played there in a while.

Great article! This was the most positive Skins news i've seen in a long time. Hall is showing big intensity! Devin looks like a whole different guy! Just good stuff all around. I still worry a lot about the endurance along the o-line. My hope is we sign another solid guy but that looks unlikely at this point.
