Today's cuts

[deanpet21]

that should mean Gumbs is in as the 5th safety

I disagree. Helu is a big back who can break tackles nothing like Thompson. Im curious to see what happens at RT

You must have missed the part where warpath said that helu has a history of injuries and they don't see him as an every down back.

RT has been decided. Pathos was cut. Compton is the backup to both Rt and LT.

 

[deanpet21]

he doesn't have to be an every down back. he would of split carries with Thompson.

 

[Warpath]

Helu isn't a big back, and definitely isn't a grinder.

 

[deanpet21]

isn't Helu 220 pounds?

 

[Warpath]

Much more likely that he'll be splitting carries with Royster if it came down to it. But we'll see. Royster is likely on the roster.

WHAT THE HELL WHY WAS MINNIFIELD CUT!!

215 or around there. Isn't a tackle breaker or a grinder. Nothing like Morris. Have you not seen him play or something?

 

[Warpath]

Gumbs is on the team.

 

[deanpet21]

I never said he was like Morris. but he is definitely not Thompson which you are comparing him too.

2m[/ame] The [URL="https://twitter.com/search?q=%23Redskins&src=hash"]#Redskins have informed safety Jose Gumbs he has made the team, according to a league source.

The Chase cut is baffling. unless his knees dont really hold up, which i didnt see any sign of in Pre Season.


Really upset about this. He better get to the PS.

 

[Warpath]

I never said he was like Morris. but he is definitely not Thompson which you are comparing him too.

Helu and Thompson are much more similar to each other and bring similar skills to the table. Both are best used as 3rd down or change of pace backs. Neither one of them are likely to stay healthy and carry a full workload.

Royster is closer to Morris as a runner and why he's likely to be kept as a backup. He's a grinder.

 

[deanpet21]

good for him. I don't think he even started camp with us. wasn't he brought in when Thomas went down?

 

[Warpath]

1m[/ame] Source: Defensive end Dominique Hamilton has been released. The [URL="https://twitter.com/search?q=%23Redskins&src=hash"]#Redskins hope to ultimately retain him as part of practice squad.

 

[Warpath]

Merling is probably solidly on the team. At least until week 5.

Been several posts about Winfield in the thread already. Skins will be interested if it becomes official.
