The Skins signed him; he will come to camp. If there is a spate of OL injuries, he will make the team and play - - meaning the Skins' season is likely doomed. Absent the spate of injuries, he will pack his bags and leave Redskins Park in search of an NFL team that DID have a spate of OL injuries in training camp...
I think you are right on the spot. As for me, I like the signing just in terms of increasing competition for backup spots. I would not call the signing "great."
