Most Excited About...?
 

Is anyone else getting tired of reading about the players we lost this offseason? Do you want to look forward, and not backward? If so, this is the thread for you!

Vote for the new Redskin you are most excited about.

i have to say jason campbell. the other signings didn't suprise me a lot, and our quarterback situation really intrigues me. i just want the season to start to see if ramsey is our guy, and if not, how long it will be before jason gets to start.

McCume is a big fast middle linebacker who dominated at Louisville, he'll also dominate in the NFL. Also the fullbacks we drafted to be change of pace and goal line impacts

Re: Most Excited About...?
 

I'm very excited about McCune. I don't expect him to have an impact on our defense until 2007, but he's got enormous potential. I do suspect that he will have an immediate impact on special teams, where his speed, agility, and raw strength should make a huge difference. I think Danny Smith had a hand in drafting McCune; in the 5th round, the player has to be a special teams-type guy and McCune fits the bill.

I'm also excited about Carlos Rodgers and his toughness. We badly needed quality youth at corner after losing Bailey and Smoot. Rodgers could be a force against the run and a quality cover corner. He's the kind of corner I like. I prefer hard-nosed corners to semi-physical cover guys. As much as I liked Smoot, I saw him whiff on no less than 6 sacks (i.e. against the Ravens, Packers, Cowgirls). I don't think we need to worry about Rodgers looking like he's playing flag football when he's rushing the quarterback.

As far as this year is concerned I'm most excited about finally having a wr like Moss who has the talent to make big plays anytime he gets the ball in his hands, but for the future of the team I'm most excited to see how Cambell develops these next 12-16 monthes.
I think I'm more curious than excited as far as Mccumes goes, cuz if Williams can mesh Mccumes obvious physical talents with the knowledge of leading the team on the field and reading plays properly, he possibly has the most potential of anyone brought in this year.

Re: Most Excited About...?
 

Ill have to say that I'm most excited aout Moss. He brings the big play, as a receiver and punt returner. With the quickness they are bringing in and the ability Campbell has to lead receivers and throw medium range lasers I think theres a personnel genius ready to be unveiled again.

Id love to see McCune play on obvious running downs and special teams. Heres some info on our newest defensive beast.

I have to say Pierson Prioleau at safety/special teams. He worked with G.W. for 3 years in Buffalo and can be a situational safety that can hit well. We may be able to work some 3 safety 2 LB sets out with him and Taylor deep and Bowen at the line blitzing. Also with less experience at CB, it's good to have a lot of options at safety to keep us from getting beat deep, which T.O. (if he plays) can do to you.

Re: Most Excited About...?
 

I'm excited about Moss and what he brings to the table in terms of speed and playmaking ability, something we've lacked since Coles' toe became an issue. I'm also excited about Patten for his speed and leadership.

I know people are pumped about McCune, he looks great but I'm going to need to see a bit more than just a sculpted frame to get excited about him.

Re: Most Excited About...?
 

J. C. will be the QB as we go into the Playoffs.

peace

For me at least, there's more than his sculpted body. McCune runs like a corner at MLB, is as strong as a defensive lineman, and hits incredibly hard. Beyond that, he's got great character, an unusually fantastic work ethic, and showed great potential at Louisville. The guy was the star special teams player in his first year playing football. He led the team in tackles in the first year he started after being away from football for four years. Moreover, McCune was a mid-second round talent who slipped due to his advanced age - he'll likely be 31 when he signs on for his second NFL contract. While he's raw, I'm willing to bet this guy is going to be a stud within two years.

Re: Most Excited About...?
 

hey how do you make a poll. for some reason i can't make a poll.

Re: Most Excited About...?
 

I voted other, but I really didnt read the everything. I was going to vote for Taylor Jacobs, but then I saw it said "NEW" redskin. Anyhow I would have voted for Moss and Patten. I am really excited to see how our revamped WR core will do.

Re: Most Excited About...?
 

McCune certainly has potential. What does it say about our offseason, though, that a fifth-round linebacker is drawing as many votes as our first-round picks and speedy new WRs? That cannot be a good sign ...

Re: Most Excited About...?
 

I'm more excited about McCune then guys like Patten or Moss because he was a 5th rounder and a great value. If McCune was drafted in the first round, I'd be pissed because it'd be a waste.

I like Patten and Moss, but I don't think they're top notch wideouts. Although I know we can't have Pro Bowlers at every position, I would like to have one true #1 wideout. Unfortunately, I don't believe that Patten or Moss are true #1s.

Re: Most Excited About...?
 

Honestly, I'm excited to have Casey Rabach. I know hes not a spectacular, top teir player. However, I think with him coming in, and the return of Jon Jansen, our offensive line is going take huge strides. The game is won in the trenches and I think this is going to be a very good addition.
