An interesting tidbit about Archuleta's workout plan. If he's still using the same trainer, it's the same guys that Nomar Garciaparra, Donovan McNabb, and many other professional athletes go to in the offseason. I have the trainers book about the workout plan he created. It's supposed to increase flexability and endurance, in addition to strength. Apparently one of the side effects is a decreased resistance to injury.

Ironically, his trainer's name is Jay Schroeder....though not the same Jay Schroeder you may be thinking of

Yeah that's exactly the guy I want working me out. I think it's the same guy who works out Ken Griffey, Jr. and Jermaine O'Neal.

I feel a whole lot better about making Arch the highest paid safety in football now, kinda like someone pulled my eyelid down over my chin.

Arch seems like a good team guy from all accounts. He simply has his own workout style that is way outside what most do so it doesn't suit much to be here. He will get plenty of time to mingle with the guys at minicamps. As long as a guy can stay out of trouble and can be trusted to work every bit as hard as anyone else I don't care if they are here or not.

Arch not being there is fine with me. Especially this early. He has been in the league for awhile and knows what he needs to do to stay in shape. He will show up in May and then again in June and then again in August..... Man they have a long offseason. It is not like he needs to be developing timing with a QB or an Offensive line or anything. All he needs to do, is know where to line up and then go hit somebody!

I have never played organized football, but I would think Safety and Corner have got to be the easiest positions to play "learning curve wise". Most of the time you are one on one anyway, which is just pure talent. Unless it is your turn to Blitz. Someone help me with this! Am I right or totaly off base.

corner, yes definitley corner is the hardest PHYSICALLY position on the field. there the most athletic on the field, but mentally its one of the easiest. safety a little bit harder, you dont need to be AS physically gifted to be saftey, but its a little more mental work then corner, cause its not jst one on one for safeties they have to know who to pick up when in man whether the receiver, the tight end, the fullback or running back, they have to learn there covers and everything. but every position in football is as difficult as the next........for my high school i play, starting strong safety, #2 wide receiver, special teams, and the # 3 quarterback(randle-el type) i tried corner, not fast enough....and the easiest actually is receiver im a possesion receiver so i dnt have blazing speed

Hey D'Boyz-
I don't make fun of how fat and outta shape Roy WIlliams is. Him making the Pro Bowl was hilarious to me. Sure he'll hit someone or horse collar anyone anytime he can, but Brunell to Moss 2 times in less than 335 in the 4th during the ring of fame induction MNF game.
I'm not worried about Archuleta, but if he remains on the team next season look for him to attend. Anyone who doesn't attend doesn't understand what it means to be a Redskin yet. Can't wait to see TO in a Dallas uni!!!

I'm sorry man but I'm not high on Archuletta he's a bad version of Roy Williams they both play close to the line and are better at middle range passes and run support but Archuletta doesn't make so many game changing plays and this might come as a surprise but he gets burned more than Williams.

Really you'll need the chargers against Taylor get drop because you need him the hole season to cover Archuletas Ass.

That's the whole reason Gregg Williams thought that Archuleta would make sense as a Skin. Taylor's range in coverage is nothing short of astounding, and he's capable of coming all the way across the field to cover for an Archuleta mistake in coverage. It's Taylor's range that will free Archuleta to play the way he plays best, close to the line, in run support, or in blitzes.

GW is going to use him as a 4th linebacker on a lot of plays, sending him to make kill shots on your statuesque QB.

Don't tell that to Santana Moss, but seriously though - just out of curiosity: how do you know archuletta is as bad as you say he is ? How many times did you see him play last year ?

Again Roy Williams & Archuleta Strong Safety - Taylor and Ed Reed Free Safety got it.

Schneed10 say it best how Gregg williams is going to use Archulletta and try to use him at his best the bad thing is that he isn't really good at that either

oh and last season I watch at least 8 games and I watched all your games last year I go to a sport book here in mex where they have 10 60inchs tvs where they play all the games at the same time also I have a variation of Tivo and I tape the cowboys games and the important games that week or next rivals so I can see how they're playing and what we did wrong.
