Offensive Line

[cowboykillerzRGiii]

Draft a safety o line depth and possibly a corner.. would need to be first pick in round three most likely.... Even then good dbs are hard to find

We still need that down the field vertical WR. Every WR is 6-2 or shorter. Skins should have Manningham in for a visit.

Yeah, what we want to give a rookie QB is a WR that runs horrendous routes. No thanks I'll pass! There is a reason the Gints aren't making much of a push to bring him back.

When I think of down the field before threat I think of fast players that can get deep and scare DBs. Didn't we just sign two of those. But I think you meant tall.

the redskins are a unique running teaming that most offenses are right handed and run to the right. the redskins, due to having better players on the left, rely on the left side.

I just finished reading a comprehensive review of all 32 teams starting olineman, their scouting report, and where they rank.

as I offered before, Trent Williams was highly thoughtof....I think they had him around 11 of 32 and called him pro owl caliber if he keeps at it.

Montgomery surprised me, they had him in the top 15 of centers.

lg was not ranked at all for wash due to injuries.

the guy that didn't fare well is your right guard Chris Chester, described as a better fit as a backup and his run blocking grade was one of the worst out there. they had him 27th.

rt, jamaal brown was ranked 19th.

te you might be suprised that Fred Davis only ranked 26th out of the top 50 tes in the game. what hurt him the most was his run blocking score was 1 out of 10 and considered very last of all starting tight ends.

all in all, the positions that were reviewed werent too too bad for washington, except don't look at qb. out of 50 qbs, they nabbed positions 49 and 47

Did you know that the Browns wear orange helmets?

You did a better job at that poster. Skins (We) are not that bad off. Your Browns will be fine eventually under Mike. I wonder why you are here though. If you aren't a fan and you aren't a rival then why?

She bragged about the Ever Bland Clowns getting RG3, we got him, they didn't, she is having trouble falling asleep at night, yadda, yadda, yadda. Clowns fan has nothing better on the horizon.

Was her best post yet, though.

Where did I say they were? All I said was that WR was a bigger need than OL going into this offseason.

Maybe your writing just sucks then, because that's not what you wrote. I'm glad it made sense in your own head though.

[quote="Skinsfan55"]Okay, so Mike Shanahan has forgotten more about football than I will ever know... but what exactly is he seeing here that I don't?

Two days into free agency, and the only offensive lineman we've been linked to is Ben Grubbs (who insiders say is a longshot to sign in Washington.) I see the offensive line as the biggest weakness on our offense. Surely, if we're planning to invest the #2 pick in a QB, we'll want to protect them. I just don't see a starting 5 anywhere on the roster.

First we have Trent Williams. Former #4 overall pick, and the jury has been a little out on him. Still, Pro Football Focus, one of the leaders in offensive line scouting says he could be on his way to a Pro Bowl some day. Let's just assume he stays out of trouble and #71 is at least average at LT. That leaves the LG position. Kory Lichtensteiger is unsigned, and even if we re-sign him, so what? Is he going to be a stud player? He's just a guy. I worry the same with Will Montgomery. He seems to be just a guy. Is he going to be a quality center?

Chris Chester was signed last season, and I think it's pretty well established that he was a bust. Jammal Brown has yet to have a healthy season and hasn't shown a bit of the Pro-Bowl talent he flashed in New Orleans.

In a lot of ways, this line is in worse shape than last season. There's at least less cause for optimism since we've seen another season from most of these guys and know what to expect. Is there a dark horse starter coming back? Willie Smith? Mo Hurt?

Probably not...

Let's hope the Redskins start putting some money into that o-line. Signing WR's won't help if our new rookie QB is on his butt.[/quote][quote][/quote]I understand that the skins are talking to Arron Ross,if we can land him than,were on our way to fixing the oline,hail

We apparently brought Demetrius Bell in for a visit. Excellent athlete for a tackle. Wonder where we'd play him. LG? RT?

Isn't he a RT? Don't let him leave town.
