| Re: The Redskins had NO TALENT when shanahan took over That's a weird article. It starts with Rogers as the only guy, then mentions Rocky and Carter. Carter is a definite starter on any team. Rocky will probably start again but I'm happy he's gone. And why don't guys like Gaffney and Stallworth count?

| Re: The Redskins had NO TALENT when shanahan took over The title of this thread seems to be hyperbole which goes beyond the specific claims of the article. CRed, here's some non-media hyperbole.

| Re: The Redskins had NO TALENT when shanahan took over I guess because guys like Gaffney or Stallworth were not originally drafted by the Redskins? Andre Carter isn't an original Redskin, but we'll see how Rocky does in years to come. Carter is gone only because he didn't really fit the 3-4 when the Redskins switched, not because he was a bad player. Although I guess it could be argued that great players can adapted. But anyways, I'm not personally worried about how well someone's career is after they leave Washington. I'm just worried about our current players' production and quality of play.

Carter isn't a starter in any 3-4 defense. Rocky start again? Only if a team is decimated with injuries.

| Re: The Redskins had NO TALENT when shanahan took over Didn't we let go Pierce and Stephen Davis because they wanted too much money. I know that's why we let go of Pierce but I cannot remember just why we let go of SD. So its not like we let them go and after seeing them thrive we realized we made a mistake. |

| Re: The Redskins had NO TALENT when shanahan took over I wouldn't go as far as saying there was NO TALENT, but alot of guys we had starting when Shanahan arrived could not start elsewhere, probably much less make an NFL squad. I can think of a few guys offhand, others can help me add to this list: QB Jason Campbell: a redskins bust, Campbell was sent to the Raiders, where he was discarded in favor of then-retired QB Carson Palmer. Cut from the raiders, and now is a backup working on a one year deal in Chicago. RB Clinton Portis: Is now retired, after 3 straight injury plagued seasons. Even when Shanahan arrived, he was totally wore out and would have not made it anywhere else. WR Joey Galloway: It's sad when a 41 year old guy beat out a young player. Is now retired. OL Mike Williams: Overcame life threatening obesity to return to football, only to be out of football again from a serious heart condition. (no joke there his return was inspiring even though it was brief). Albert Haynesworth: Enough Said........

| Re: The Redskins had NO TALENT when shanahan took over I thought he could have potentially died due to some rare heart condition that finally ended his career, but anyway I really have no idea.

| Re: The Redskins had NO TALENT when shanahan took over If JC didn't get injured, the trade for Palmer wouldn't have happened. The Raiders didn't cut him either he was a free agent. |
