I would actually think Alexander would be a better ST player because he is bigger and stronger (assuming Stroman isn't the designated return guy).


I think part of the appeal for Stroman is that he’s a return guy. I am not aware of Alexander being pegged for teams. Unless he outplays Stroman, he might want to think about that.

Keep an eye on UDFA CB Danny Johnson, as well. He's outstanding in pass coverage. IMHO, the only thing he lacks is height at 5'9". He was a great SWAC player.

Re: Training Camp 2018

With preseason set to begin, Redskins shift from ‘camp mode’ to game prep

Re: Training Camp 2018

Looks like Rob Kelly is the new Ryan Grant, aka Gruden's new son.

seriously...he will make the team and continue to

1. always slip and fall through the hole with daylight in front of him, leaving 25+ yards
2. drop passes
3. Running into the back of an olineman instead of cutting it into daylight

Fat rob is good, but I don't want to keep a guy when vision and leaving yards on the field seems to be a problem. These are issues that losing weight wont help

Re: Training Camp 2018

Agreed. Fat Rob just ain't that good period. I'm hoping the combo of Guice/Thompson puts him out of work and leaves Perine as the spare.

Re: Training Camp 2018

All reports are saying Kelley is having a good camp, so if he earns a spot so be it.

He has shown some flashes, not hating on the guy, but we all know what early training camp reports are worth.
