Re: Make a Decison on the Future of...

Hilarious that some are saying Adam Carriker might be a back-up. Based on what? Jenkins' potential? That's silly. Carriker has been more than solid, definitely a starter in this league. He's a keeper. I wonder if he tacked on a few more sacks and landed in the Pro-Bowl, how folks would feel?

I'm honestly on the fence about Hightower. Only because he started out so well and loves being a Redskin. We need more guys like that around here. And it's not like he's old. You're generally one injury away from signing a Rashard Choice, so I say bring Tim back.

Rocky, Sellers, Goltston, Monty - Gone baby gone.

I would feel like I was watching a different player.

lol nice Tripp...but Carriker is not that bad. Quality vetern presence who could be in the rotation backing up both Jenkins and Bowen. We are already losing Gholston, losing both would be bad. You could still draft depth for Gholston spot, while keeping a contributing player like Carriker in his prime. Sign him for to an affordable 2-3 year contract.

I agree with everything you say here except for Monty. Carriker has definitely been more than solid, and is definitely not a weak link. With Jenkins back, his pt will be reduced, but since when is having quality depth a bad thing? Carriker definitely comes back next year, upgrade or not. Who cares who gets the start as long as all our defensive linemen stay fresh?

As for Hightower, again I agree. I love his attitude, but the on field results haven't been that impressive. I bring him back on a one year deal as a backup to Helu, and I'd let him battle with Royster for the backup job.

Rocky - yeah, gone.

Golston - Sad to say but he's just a body at this point. We might as well trade him in for a body that's better suited to play his position.

Montgomery - upgrade or not, bring him back. He's not a top notch center by any means, but we could definitely do worse. Even if we upgrade I'd still like him for depth.

Sellers - save us the trouble and just retire.

Polumbus - bring him back for depth.

Willie Smith - bring him back for depth too, and possibly let him battle for the RT spot.

Stallworth - bring him back only if Redskins do not seek an upgrade.

Agree with you . I would like to see Landry back , as long as he is healthy and dedicated to the game . London , I would hate to see him leave , even with Riley looking very solid .
