First Cuts: Holmes, E. Williams, Dearth, Davis

Supposedly, Byron Westbrook has been released though I'm not entirely sure. Which means that Tryon and Robinson look like they may both make the team, or not.

Never quite understood what the hype about Edwin Williams was all about. He always seemed like just another guy to me.

I personally like him a lot, known him since he was in high school. Good guy who I wanted to see do well in the pros, and especially for his hometown team

I understand the hometown connection and the fact he played at Maryland. Still, he just didn't seem like anything special on the field.

Think he might have stuck if they had kept him at Center. At Guard, the talent pool with regard to guys who can run/pass/screen block is a lot deeper, because there isn't such a premium on first step quickness and ability to set and adjust protections.

Once he got moved to left guard, he didn't seem to offer more than basic ability at that position to not be overpowered by standard level defensive lineman. And so I'm not shocked that he was displaced by Kory Lichtensteiger.

Schefty's reporting on the Westbrook release now, though the Skins still aren't confirming anything.

So does that mean a signing is likely coming? Seems like these guys haven't really cut anyone until they absolutely had too.

Westbrook report may have been premature. Hearing mixed things

Matty has already notified me that I will be suspended for 10 days. I've appealed but I'm guessing he'll ask me to take some time off around mid-September

Sad to hear about Williams, i thought he did decent the couple times he played last year.

BigHairedAristocrat · 09-01-2010, 11:01 AM

wonder what really happened with this westbrook situation. maybe some paperwork didnt get filed properly to place Kelly on IR and the skins thought they had to drop another player ASAP, but then got the kelly thing worked out?

either way, this could be an indication that westbrook is the 75th player on the team right now.

Did R.Williams get cut? I saw on Redskins.com Depth Chart that he's off the list?

Still on the roster, just not on the visible depth chart it seems
