Hackett based on his experience.

Mitchell will be on the PS.

I hate putting a guy on the practice squad that was drafted. If he gets picked up by another team and becomes a player, it will have been a completely wasted draft pick, not that we haven't wasted picks in the past. :frusty:

I agree, I really think someone would pick him up. Hackett has been around, and clearly doesnt have "IT". Hagans has some potential, but is still very raw and we havent invested anything in him. MM being the draft pick, Im hoping they keep him around.

Re: Clinton Portis Loves Marko Mitchell

What's the probability of a losing a 7th round WR from the PS? Probably pretty slim.

True, but, if he's a draft pick that goes on the PS, he's probably not in the future plans.

He was trying to say that if teams could lose undrafted players to another team, a 7th rounder could easily be picked up by another team.

Probability high to teams who may have lost a WR due to injury and Marko show's pretty good skills in preseason.

I'm guessing Zorn is leaning towards Hackett only cause he knows the system but again I say he has done nothing in this league that screams future of this team or team leader. We have Moss and ARE as vets, lets bring in some youth. Who knows maybe he will be another star WR plucked from the later rounds. Funny if he out performs Thomas and Kelly. Doubtfull due to lack of playing time and time in the league and system.

Re: Clinton Portis Loves Marko Mitchell

Slim or not, I'd hate to lose him. I think his upside is pretty good and could possibly help us this year.

Re: Clinton Portis Loves Marko Mitchell

I doubt we put a draft pick that shows promise on the PS. I also believe he has the potential to make the team on merit. Hackett wasn't even our first choice between Roydell Williams and himself. For me, Hackett is the definition of a camp body. (Eloi also). If Hackett were a killer ST player, then he could definitely take up Thrash's mantle, but as a 5th receiver he has less potential than Mitchell.

Depth Chart: 5 receivers

This is MY depth chart as far as the WRs are concerned. I hope most will agree. I am so pissed that Hagans and Thrash are on the new Madden. What's up with that? Thrash has been gone for a while..

1. Moss (no explanation needed)
2. Devin Thomas (takes pressure off Moss and has exceptional speed)
3. A.R.E (This position is more sutiable for him from what I've read)
4. Malcom Kelly (could have been 2-3 - But He needs to improve on route running)
5. Marko Mitchell (he has been shining in traning camp..Ask Carlos Rogers..lol) Also see CLinton Portis loves Marko Mitchell http://www.thewarpath.net/redskins-l...-mitchell.html

What are your thoughts? I know Hackett knows the offense and Hagans is versatile (wonder if the wildcat or anything has to do with him being here since he was a former QB..Probably not..Poor mans A.R.E. to me)

I think Marko is a diamond in the rough and we should not chance letting another team pick him up. Having another WR with height and that can burn would be a nice compliment to Devin and Malcom in the future. We would be set for years. Moss and ARE aren't exactly spring chickens..

Re: Depth Chart: 5 receivers

Need a point of clarification. Is this your suggested depth chart, or what the depth chart actually is?
