The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

Well, 1-2 on the season and the trade deadline is approaching in about 3 weeks, I know trades are rare mid season, anybody think anything is brewing at Redskin Park, personally I don't what about the rest of you's.

I think we should use one of the back-up running back to pick up another OL and CB for security.....

Yea I could see either Duckett or Betts being used for bait to maybe get some players or more draft picks but I doubt either of two will happen.

I don't think Betts is going anywhere. We do need a CB though.

Betts isn't going anywhere this season

Maybe they can trade for Walt Harris and Ryan Clark. We miss those guys more than I thought we ever would.

Other than that, I hope the front office stays quiet.

he defensive chemistry is already off balance with all the new faces. It's time the Skins lock the roster and start building through the draft and put trades aside. And get the most out of the guys on the squad.

Walt Harris? how many picks does he have this year? and Clark does have as many tackles as AA.

Good points on Walt and Ryan 1niksder. I don't even know where Ryan is playing. But with Pearson Preilou out for the seaon - if I was GM I'd try to bring Ryan back. I'd rather have Ryan than Duckett on the inactive list.

And even though I can't answer the stats - and good call, I should come with more game - the D looks disoriented this year. Ryan and Walt are the two key role players who weren't brought back from last year. I wasn't sorry to see them go. But I also thought Andre Carter would have two sacks and draw a double team every play by now.

Once Springs is back the D might come to start to resemble the monster it's been the past two seasons. He just may be as important to the D as Portis is to the O. I hope that's the case.

But I'd still try to bring back Walt and Ryan!

Ryan is in Pittsburg. and someone has to be inactive. Why complain about a back on the inactive list following the output of the back that were active. Again AA is out performing Clark after three games, so what's the issue? We don't have a GM and if we did I don't think I'd go after another team's starting saftey 4 weeks into the season, that would come at a heavy price

The Corner spot is a issue and Kenny Wright may only have 1 int but that's one more than what Harris has. Walt was beaten like a drum most of last season, but neither is a Shawn Springs

I agree SS will make a world of difference. He is the best cover coner that we have and that alone will allow Williams to do some things that he doesn't have the confidence (in the other CBs) to do now. This will have a effect on the whole D. As it stands it's all on the LBs, they have to help in the secondary while also covering for the soon to be returning Joe Salave'a

Glad we don't have a GM

I say give up Duckett and Betts for another Outside linebacker. Takeo Spikes is who I had in mind. Or maybe get Lavar back I know sounds crazy. Well only if the outside backer is a Pro Bowler or a Good corner will do.

Ducket and Betts? cmon that is far fetched! Probably Duck if anybody. Betts is playing very well right now.
