There must be reasons, however. I think special teams is a big one. Then again, I remember Wilds making some nice plays on special teams as well. Who knows? All I know is that the final cut-downs are some of the hardest decisions coaches have to make.


I like Wilds but and Rufus Brown and him really stunk it up in the Baltimore game. I think he could be a good backup but we really need one more corner who can actually play CB and not just special teams.

I'm surprised by Warner, Wilds, and McCune's releases.

I'm mildly surprised by Dyson's release. I knew he was expendable but thought we would keep at least 6 receivers.

I'm somewhat surpised James Bethea made it despite his solid season in NFL Europe.

I'm glad to see Nic Clemons make it after spending the past 2 years on the practice squad.

I thought Brandon Barnes was going to make the team on his special teams ability and after his solid performance against the Ravens.

Considering Gibbs' use of tight ends, I thought we'd keep Robert Johnson for depth.

I'm surprised to see Cedric Killings make the roster. I think he's a decent player but never thought he'd make the team.

but come on- look at his name! that has to be one of the top 4 greatest NFL player names.

in no particular order:
1. Rock Cartwright
2. Cedric Killings
3. Mack Strong (FB-seattle)
4. T.J. Slaughter (LB-new orleans)

Shocked Cuts:

Warner, Wilds, Dyson, McCune. I totally thought Warner would make, he and Wilds had no doubt in my mind that they would make it. I also cannot believe we cut Dyson. I thought he was very solid as a 4 or 5 WR. And I'm not really shocked McCune got cut, just sad. (However that was a waste of a draft pick if he's not kept on the PS)

But I liked how Clemons made it, he is a huge DE (although I still thought Warner was better)

But hopefully this is the roster that will take us to Detroit!

I guess I'm not surprised Aki Jones was cut, since it's never a good sign when you wear the same number as the long snapper.

You forgot about Thrash!

But I agree that we are thin at WR. Especially since Moss and Jacobs both have injury concerns. I figure we'll get a combined 16 games out of the both of them. But what do we do when they are both injured at one time?

Is it just me? I swear I never saw Bethea become released and he's not on Redskins.com's roster. :hmm:

At least this means, Gibbs thinks the players on our roster are even better than the ones we cut, as all i'm as some was disappointed, some of them had grown on us all.
Go 06' Skins, Wildcard birth & please avg. more than 15 ppg.

Some of the favourites will make it to practice squad. Wilds, Warner, McCune, etc may even be drafted by other teams! I liked that -both- Nemo and the Rock stayed at RB. This was done at a price though.

Like many of you, I am very uncomfortable with our lack of depth at CB, which is one of the most injury-prone positions in the team. I am concerned about Walt Harris' season-long health in particular.

Sad about Robert Johnson. But why on earth was Jimmy Farris cut??

No, JSPB22, back in Maryland where I grew up since December. But I lived 8 years in South Georgia (Cordele, 1.75 hours south of ATL). Never got Skins games on TV there. So glad to be back!

That's good. I hope Farris is signed to the last position.
