rotoworld is saying per the Washington Post, but the Washington Post has nothing on their site about it.

I do think Williams will take Royster's roster spot.

But I also still think Thompson makes the team as the 4th HB.

Then I guess Paul will return all Punts... or Moss at times. However, I'm still not gonna believe Thompson got cut as of yet. Dude fumbles a bit but a potential star in the making.

 

[deanpet21]

its just a rumor. But if we keep 3 rb's it opens up a 6th WR. Which should be Dawson b/c of punt returns. I think that would make more sense.

 

[Warpath]

I think we keep 4 RBs. Thompson can also return kicks and punts.

 

[deanpet21]

Its a tough decision but by losing Crawford for the year it should of opened the door for Dawson. Shany does not like fumblers.

 

[Warpath]

It also opens the door for Thompson. Who had the best punt return of the preseason for the Redskins this weekend. He also showed burst on a kick return.

Let the cuts begin. Regarding Rob Jackson, I would have to say no way. Not this year. The guy makes plays. It's all he does. Can't let him go. By week 4 who knows if Raks peck is still in tacked.

Especially since Rak isn't under contract for next year. While I fully expect him to be resigned, keep Jackson until you are sure.

@ZacBoyer: Empty lockers at Redskins Park: Stallworth, Kettani, Muckelroy, Sturdivant, Reeves, Trueblood, Elmore

Jackson only has one year on his deal as well. Same as Rak.

 

[Warpath]

1m[/ame] K John Potter also empty locker.

 

[Warpath]

No real surprises as far as any of those empty lockers go. So far.

 

[deanpet21]

ILB Compton still alive. Could be 4th Ilb along with Kehl.

Yup, but he'll be easier to sign if something happens to Rak. At least wait until he comes off suspension before making a decision on him. I got a feeling we may be working on an extension to Rak as we speak to lock him up for another long stretch and free up some cap space this year.

Yeah, unless it's a cap move there's no reason to cut Jackson. If Tapp and Jenkins are tearing things up by week 4 though... cutting or trading one of them will be likely.

 

[Warpath]

Still going to be another set of cuts after the next game. So guys who are still here after today still have another round of cuts to make it through.

 

[j_y19]

I predict LeRebius will be gone after this week unless he has one hell of a game on thursday. Gettis has advanced past him.

this i think could happen

as for rjax , if we get another injury or something , his salary could be used to get a new player . and warpath is right it will be done later on if at all

21m[/ame] Curious to see how many players [URL="https://twitter.com/search?q=%23Redskins&src=hash"]#Redskins IR (alters No. of cuts). Need to trim roster to 75 but Crawford, Thomas, Kimbrough should go IR.
