Released Redskins

The Redskins have released five veteran players, including veteran cornerback Walt Harris, the team announced on Friday. The moves, which did not come as a surprise, ensure that the Redskins will be under the $102 million salary cap before the start of free agency.



The players released are as follows:
  • Matt Bowen, S
  • Walt Harris, CB
  • Brandon Noble, DT
  • Cory Raymer, C
  • Tom Tupa, P
Who is Next to go?

Re: Players released:

John Hall would be next on my hit list. It isn't that he's a bad kicker, just over priced for his performance/health/KO distance.

patten is 86 yards a game, and clearly the #2 WR we have. ditching him would be dumb, he's pretty cheap.

86 yards a game? On what planet?

9 games played, 217 total yards, 0 TD. That's 24 yards a game. One game with > 60 yards receiving. ONE. And he had 7 catches that game, so the ypc is pretty abysmal.

Dump Patten. Dump Thrash. Dump Jacobs. Your net loss there is 25 yards a game of receiving. If you can't get a 25 yard/game guy off the FA wire, might as well hang it up.

I'm not sure, but I think the 86 yards per game refers to the drop off in team passing yards once he left.
We need another receiver, but Patten was not doing a bad job. Brunnel and him were not in sync early, and once they started to get it together, he got hurt. Go back and look at the game film and you will see what I'm talking about.

that'd be on earth sir. he pulled coverage and left others open. do the math.

he averaged 24yard/game
moss got 30 more yard/game before his injury
other receivers got 8 more yards/game before his injury than after
TEs got 10 more yard/game receiving before his injury
RBs got 14 more yard/game receiving before his injury

that's 86 extra receiving yards a game.

people are so eager to send him down river, but he really did help others get open (especially moss, cooley, and portis). I think if he's back even as the #2, you'll see better production of the passing game. He's somebody you have to keep cause he's WAY better than anyone else we've got (barring moss).

I thought about starting a thread on this.

That would be awesome if they could get Smoot for cheap. He was terrible last year and would be a great 3rd corner.

He would definitely come back.

Re: Released Redskins

I don't think Smoot is going anywhere. I hear he's added 11 pounds of muscle, according to twincities.com

He must have gotten the 'roids from Clinton Portis.

Re: Released Redskins

Doesn't Smoot have some legal trouble from the "love boat" scandal, tho? Do we really need two players possibly facing jail time?

Re: Released Redskins

There's no need to go crazy and cut all of our WRs.

You can't have all-stars at every position.

Patten will be a quality #3.

Do you think we'll cut Thrash? And what about Antonio Brown? I know AB is our KR, but that's another WR on our roster taking away from another position.
