Maybe it's Kelly?

R.Williams
Hagan
Armstrong
Galloway

I heard speculation that the Skins could trade Kelly or include him in that.. but Smoot is the only one that I've seen say that he actually was talked about

I think Kelly will end up being above the 5th

why the hell did we sign galloway

[vallin21]

Wow, this is bad news for Mitchell. He'll have to prove he's better than Kelly or DT or beast on ST. It's obvious Shanahan doesn't like our current WR's.

[SmootSmack]

Signing both Galloway and Wade has me wondering if one of our other WRs is hurt and we just don't know about it. Maybe there's someone who won't be participating in mini-camp and just a little in training camp so we need bodies.

Though I can certainly see Wade cracking the final roster

[CRedskinsRule]

any possibility that it's more for return duties? He did that back in Chicago. His fumbles would worry me in that regard tho.

Competition folks, you sign all these guys to make it through all the camps. I know everyone wants to over analyze every move, but sometimes a move is just a move. It doesn't mean TO is coming, Moss is getting cut, AH is getting traded, and Colt is the new starter. Chiiiiiilllllllll

I like that Shanny is backing up his words about open competition in camp. I have noticed a couple trends though, they used several picks in the draft on O line, but the fa signings (aside from Hicks, Buchanon) have mainly been D line & WR. Correct me if I'm wrong, I'm just going from memory.

Sign 'em all and let God sort it out.

Or for you atheists: Sign 'em all and let Science figure it out.

For everyone else: Sign 'em all and reach a mutually agreeable consensus that doesn't make you feel uncomfortable.

Seriously, this is one of those "so what signings". He makes it - great. He doesn't - fine. Does it have a deeper meaning as to how the Skins few Kelly or Thomas? Probably not. Even if it does, do we have any hope doing more than guessing what that meaning is? Nope.

Please stop being so sensible.

This & other wr signings does pose an issue w/that unit; who plays spec. teams? Hate to say it, but Marko might not have a job if he can't do something on teams. I wouldn't think they'd continue to use DT on teams a lot if he's starting, but they might.

I recall that Shanny signed Jerry Rice when he was 40 or so. I remember some saying that Rice would be the #4, which usually has to play teams. I don't remember anything about Rice in Denver after that, but this signing reminded me of it.

We won't have to worry about complacency setting in among this W/R group. With competition, none of these guys can afford to adopt that "I've got it made" attitude or that their position on the team is safe.

I dont see Galloway providing serious competition for any of the top 3 guys on our current depth chart and i can't see the team keeping a guy that old on the 53man roster as a 4th or 5th WR. wade could make a push, but i dont see us keeping both him and moss. Shanahan prefers tall athletic WRs so i doubt we'd keep both Moss and Wade. Then again, i don't really know anything, but Smoots speculation that one of our WRs (probably Kelly) may be hurt makes the most sense to me.
