DE Daniels Downgraded to Doubtful vs. Eagles

[BrudLee]

In 2002, 2003, and 2004, Renaldo Wynn led the D line in tackles. He also never made more than $2.5 million with the Skins in a given year (signing bonus excluded), so "overpaid" seems a little strong.

Renaldo also did a Q&A session with us at Redskins Warpath. That means he's contributed more to this site than you have. So insult someone else, because Renaldo is a friend, and I take that personally.

Despite all that, it was still time for Renaldo to go. His days of producing results were long gone. And Philip Daniels won't be far behind him. As fans, it's tough because we develop an attachment with guys who are here, who find a place on the roster season after season -- honestly though, when you look at it objectively, you begin to realize that most of the guys on the D-line have been squeezed dry for all they're worth. There aren't many organizations that reward "locker room leadership" the way this place does, and often they'll do it at the expense of actual performances on the field.

I don't think we will lose much of anything with Daniels out of the lineup. Let's see what Chris Wilson can do.

I support the personnel decision - I dispute hurrykaine's assertion that Wynn was an "overpaid piece of $hit". I also firmly believe that Daniels is getting the start (when healthy) because he makes the most positive plays. When that changes, so will the lineup.
