Ok Blaylock may have done very well in Saunders system when he played for KC and that is the only reason I can guess he would come to our mini camp. He's a vet. Teams are looking for the 1,2 punch. I'm sure he could find some team somewhere that needs a second RB but he comes here where we have....what 3 or 4 already? I'll be honest with you I have been hoping we drop Cartwright from the fold. I know, I know he's a true Redskin through and through but every year he never seems to move up the RB chain of command. He's a glorified kick returner. He does a good job...but when asked to step in as a RB I was not impressed. Now I'm rooting for the under dog. The "lets get some youth in here" cheering fan. I'm actually rooting for Marcus Mason(RB). I know he's unproven. I know he's from a small school. But when you see his highlights(and they are only highlights. No bad runs which we all know there had to be) I can't help but like the kid. He looks like he gets shot out of a cannon. He finds the holes and is in top gear in seconds. Almost like a younger Clinton Portis. I'm rooting for the underdog.
