Is he still rehabing from knee surgery? He missed the mini-camp so getting into training camp on time is a good thing

The Redskins have signed rookie linebacker and top draft pick Rocky McIntosh, the team announced on Sunday evening.
With McIntosh on board, the Redskins have all six of their draft picks signed for the start of training camp. The entire Redskins roster is under contract.

I like how it's four years.

I mean 5 or 6 is too long because the prospect may end up being a bust and three is too short because the kid might have not matured yet.

I don't think Rocky will start until the second half of the season, but I know he's gonna be good.

He should be comfortable at his first official practice with 95 -100 degree temps forcast, he should feel like he is back in Miami. Good luck on a long and sucessful career with Washington.

I'm excited about this kid. Can he be as good or better than Arrington? (I know there are some differing opinions on L.A.) I guess my question is do you think he will be a real force on the defense?

Hopefully he'll be an impact player, but I doubt we'll see much of him this year. G. Williams seems to play rookies more sparingly, but then again, they're rookies, so who can fault him on it.
