Redskins signed Josh Briscoe Wr Tennese

Swarley · 04-26-2009, 10:26 PM

I'm all about the Edwin Williams signing.

GusFrerotte · 04-26-2009, 10:38 PM

I like those Terps they signed. I hope they can make the squad, even if it is highly unlikely they will.

The pick up of edwin Williams is better than half of our second day picks..

Absolutely. What a steal!

He's getting a lot of love from those who generally know their stuff around here. Why? and, if he's such a steal, what were the reasons he was not on anyone's radar? Just curious.

I think he plays above his natural talent level. Smart, good kid who has probably overachieved much of his life. You need talent to succeed at the NFL level, so I think maybe his "lack" of talent and the fact that he plays C/G knocked him down toward the later rounds of the draft.

Still, having been around him (way back when he was in high school, granted) I think there's really something special about him. He'll go out there, work hard, and won't make mistakes.

Hey, we already have a Center who "goes out there" every week!

No need to fret, not like he's guaranteed to be on the final roster.

GusFrerotte · 04-26-2009, 10:57 PM

Like I said, couldn't hurt to give him a look though. Still think he would be a better QB than Sanchez. Collins isn't getting any younger and they may need to go younger if JC ta kes a hike after this season or is plain let go.

tryfuhl · 04-26-2009, 11:00 PM

Jags have already signed 18

Daseal · 04-27-2009, 02:59 AM

DG28 -- I doubt it. I think Campbell was more concerned with seeing the Redskins invest a high pick and a lot of money in a guy. When a team does that, the writing is on the wall for the current starter. The high draft pick will get his shot.

In fact Im willing to bet Campbell wanted us to pick up an UDFA QB to take some reps from him during training camp.

SmootSmack · 04-27-2009, 06:51 AM

We've also signed MLB Ronnie Palmer

I've been following Williams since HS, I think he's the best lineman to come out of Maryland maybe ever

Crash · 04-27-2009, 09:39 AM

I'm really happy we got Williams...I think he should be able to make the team as a backup Center/Guard

Soup's Uncle · 04-27-2009, 09:57 AM

Edwin Williams was apparently rated the 6th or 7th best Center prospect in the draft. Awesome we got him!
