Redskins Players Gather for Another Workout (Day 3 Notes Start on Post #98)

SmootSmack · 05-24-2011, 10:13 AM

About 30 players there right now, including Grossman and Beck.

Fletch once again running the workout.

I think just about all the rookies are there

Alvin Walton · 05-24-2011, 10:16 AM

How cool would it be to wander out to some athletic field somewhere and realize that "those guys" over there are NFL pros running drills.

SmootSmack · 05-24-2011, 10:19 AM

That would be pretty cool. Just wander around the high schools of Northern Virginia I guess. It's going to be 3 days of workouts

Perhaps they can recruit Albert to demonstrate the......Shuttle Run?

SmootSmack · 05-24-2011, 10:37 AM

About 42 players there apparently

In other news, the Giants have had two workouts and about 8 players showed up for each

I always felt we had some great core guys during the Gibbs 2 era. That didn't translate to winning but I found it annoying when we got the "bad lockerroom rep." It was more than that.

We still get that rap, b/c we're not winning I guess. I'm sure it's not as tight as a powerhouses like Pitts, NE, and Indi but that's b/c we're not winning and don't have the success and stability those clubs have.

Carlos Rogers is not there, along with McNabb and Haynesworth.

I'd be shocked if they were there. I expect all these guys not to be there. Hell, Los stayed of actual games b/c he was scared of damaging his value, no way he's going to come to a workout not mandatory...lol

I'm glad many of the guys are getting reps in. Kudos!

hooskins · 05-24-2011, 11:08 AM

Seems like the Skins are terrible character guys. Only thing they care about is partying.

SmootSmack · 05-24-2011, 11:14 AM

Beck is killing it in practice today. I'm going to "beckpedal" from my previous comments and get on the "beckwagon" before it's too late

SmootSmack · 05-24-2011, 11:21 AM

Never mind, Beck just had a rough series. Rex has been solid. Imagine it's like an Osaka preseason game so the defenses are pretty bland

Getting my updates via text from colleagues on the scene by the way, so I'm not actually seeing anything

Hog1 · 05-24-2011, 11:45 AM

Thanx SS, it may not be an OTA.....but it's something...sniff....sniff

SmootSmack · 05-24-2011, 12:03 PM

Looks like we're done for the day. Unless they're meeting again this afternoon

D Smith spoke with the players afterward

Jarvis Jenkins among those not there today

Me: So Beck looked pretty good today?

Colleague at Practice: You know, honestly, he kind of reminds me of your guy Chase Daniel. He's smart, makes good decisions, and I trust him in the short to intermediate game. But I just don't know that his arm is strong enough to go deep or last in a game where he needs to throw 20+ passes.

Me: There's only one Chase Daniel!...what about Rex

Colleague: If you could trust him to handle himself under pressure, he'd be the best QB we've had here in the past decade

Me: Seems like quite an ask

Colleague: No doubt. But from a pure throwing perspective he's been awesome

Thats the key, I think give Grossman decent protection and he won't have to handle himself (hopefully) under pressure. He would be our best option right now until the team decides on a franchise QB.

On a side note.... I miss Chase Daniels. lol. Can we trade Portis to the Saints for Daniels?
