Randle El Fair Catches His Way to the Bench

Redskins Insider - Redskins promote Hall, demote Randle El

Good move. We gotta do something. Hall, Moss, or someone else. It's not that he's muffed a couple this year, it's that he hasn't done jack in the last few years.

Great move ARE stay in the slot

BigHairedAristocrat · 11-02-2009, 03:47 PM

Removing ARE as primary punt returner is a move thats long overdue. However, I don't get making Hall our primary guy... going by the stats provided in the article, it doesnt look like he was that good at it. In addition, as our #1 corner, i'd hate to risk Hall getting hurt on a punt return. I just dont like the depth behind him. Add to it the fact that Hall would be receiving a return immediately after being on the field playing defense, and he might be too tired to be effective.

To be honest, i'd rather have Moss as our #1 guy. He's explosive, would be "fresh" when taking his returns, and we have more depth behind him at WR than at DB, should he get injured.

I still would rather have Devin Thomas.

The few times Campbell has gotten him the ball in space, he has absolutely made plays.

I agree 100%

A move long overdue.

One way or the other, I'm glad El is on the bench.

Gee, just in time!

I cannot say I agree with this particular move, although I agree that production here gas been lackingdone. This is what I find distressing about this move -- the article states: In his 13 career returns, he [Hall] has three fair catches, two fumbles and an average return of 9.5 yards.

Of 13 career returns, 2 fumbles -- that is WAY too risky at about once per game. My vote would be to give someone else the job.

He's never returned punts but I wouldn't be offended by him at least splitting time with Rock at KR.

Son Of Man · 11-02-2009, 04:24 PM

Hmmm? With his large cap number...is El still going to be here next year? That's alot of money for a slot guy.

Longtimefan · 11-02-2009, 04:27 PM

I thought he would be benched as a punt returner to start the season. Competition was brought in but couldn't make the grade.

warpaint · 11-02-2009, 04:35 PM

How about getting Marko Mitchell out he has some speed.

SolidSnake84 · 11-02-2009, 04:36 PM

This isn't relevant at all probably, but in Madden, ARE was always my punt/kick return guy. Well ARE got hurt one time, and Santana was the new man. My returns got much better immediatley. I was never able to do much with ARE....just saying
