Impressive rookies
Man I loved the way some our rookies performed tonight. Starting with Colt Brennan and Chris Horton, Fred Davis looked good, Chad Rinehardt was solid. I would love to see Horton make the squad, he looks like a keeper and is a hitter, kudos to Vinny. I know is only one exhibition game but it's a start.

Re: Impressive rookies
I wonder if Dwayne Walker had anything to do with Horton coming here.

Re: Impressive rookies
What about Matrell and Tryon? No love for the two rookie corners? Also what did you guys think of Gatewood (he was good ole #56)?

Re: Impressive rookies
I was impressed with with Richardson he threw down some solid coverage not to mention the pick six. Gatewood was solid from what I saw. Tryon really struggled at CB and as the PR tonight.

Re: Impressive rookies
Forgot to mention Fincher our new LB, he made a couple of good plays late in the game.

Disapointed to hear though that Tryon got beat up (my attention during the game went in and out during the second half). Tryon is actually one of Vinny's favorite guys which would explain why he passed up Dre Moore to draft him. Hopefully he gets his stuff together and ends up being a poor mans Tye Hill (like NFL.com promised in his draft profile). However Rob Jackson, Chris Horton, Colt Brennan, Fred Davis, Chad Rhinehart. After tonight thats looking like a good draft. Can't wait to see Kelly and Thomas. However at this rate I'd be surprised if we see Moore play. I feel like they're going to put him on IR for some reason.

Re: Impressive rookies
What about Rob Jackson? Everywhere I read, he was a 7th rounder “not to expect too much from”. Guy looked good!
Also if Brooks keeps punting the way he did tonight … good bye Mr. Frost.

Re: Impressive rookies
Tryon had probably the worst game of any player...not a good day...
But the good news is this. This Skins tried last year to get a 3rd string QB with a late pick....and you know how that worked out....well...there is no question at this point...Brennan will make the team... Horton will too....Brooks may as well...as far as the other 7 draft picks? Rhinehart probably, Davis probably....and the 2 WR will be in....so that means 7 of 10 picks make it...thats fairly good....my only disapointment is Tryon because he was a high pick....bottom line....he sucked....really bad...but you gotta have someone fall through
