Five Redskins Most Likely To Improve

Dirtbag59

I'd put my money on Mitchell instead of Kelly. Considering the fact that he showed promise under Zorn makes me think he(Mitchell) could easily move up a level or two under Mike and Kyle.

Time for the token JC supporter...I don't think JC will improve as much but with a better offensive line around him, I do see his stats entering the 25 td 15 int range.

Hopefully a few more TDs will coincide with fewer INTs (and fumbles)

Agree on Kelly, Landry.. and maybe Rogers and Rhino

Orakpo can stay on his grind and be fine

Does he mean improve from last year or improve in general?

My picks:
I agree with all his picks except for Rogers i think he is what he is

o Clinton Portis
o Stephon Heyer
o Malcolm Kelly
o Devin Thomas
o Jason Campbell

I'd say 5 Skins that should improve are

LB Blades i think he'll benfit from the 3-4 , and another year under his belt learning from Fletcher.

TE Fred Davis showed good hands , and not sure how healthy Cooley will play in the start of the season.

DL Golston , S Horton and OT Heyer should all do better aswell

He's talking about which players will benefit most from changes in the coaching and scheme. For instance, there have been reports that Shanahan has told Kelly they will draw up plays to utilize his size.

Three! But there has been little information and a lot of miss-information this offseason, so, I'm not sure about my Soup jersey............

I'll give my opinion before reading the link. This is people who are on the roster, that should have increased playing time.

Orakpo would be my #1. He will be put into position to make more plays as a rush LB or in free space.
#2 would probably be - Haynesworth. If he is able to line up as a DE in the 3-4 system, i think he would absolutely be dominant.
#3 - goes to a couple of LB's....Blades and Wilson. Both of these guys could benefit from the 3-4 system. Blades playing inside along with London, and playing Wilson more on the outside. To me, he is the prototypical 3-4 OLB. He NEEDs to be on the field more. He just makes plays happen.
#4 - Campbell - Working with Shanahan and having some quality lineman in front of him, having two pretty damn good backs (as long as they are healthy) and having the WR being more aggressive in their routes, cooley and davis healthy - campbell could have a HUGE year!
#5 - Malcomb Kelly - if ready little Shannys expectations of Kelly didn't get you all pumped up, then check your pulse. He expects to use Kelly as he did Andre Davis in houston. Said he is just as big, just as fast and plans on getting him in mismatches as he did in houston. I look for Kelly to be a big part of the offense.

When you sit back and look at the possibilities of this offense it really is exciting. Devin Tomas and Malcomb Kelly hopefully playing together on the field, with davis and cooley, portis and johnson...man the possibilities are exciting. I left out Moss thinking I would trade him on draft day... but thats my opinion. i think we have 3 good recievers on this team saying the 3rd is Mitchell.

If Rogers can hold onto at least one INT that will be an improvement.

KI Skins Fan

1. Clinton Portis - The new offense will take full advantage of his natural cutback abilities. Also, he has been challenged by Shanahan to get in top shape to excel and Clinton is a warrior who will accept that challenge. He'll lose ten pounds to get quicker, he'll be fit and ripped to start the season, and he'll have a big year.

2. Santana Moss - Shanahan will use him in the slot where he will feast on nickle backs, LB's, and safeties. Also, the coaches will find ways to get him the ball in space where he can do the most damage.

3, 4, and 5. Brian Orakpo, Jeremy Jarmon, and Chris Wilson - These players were made to be 3-4 OLB's. I expect them to terrorize QB's in 2010. Jarmon will get down to 260 and show off his speed and quickness.
