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........
