The Redskins have signed quite a few DB's, LB's, RB's and WR's for camp. We all know there will be some surprise cuts as well as the potential for a "surprise" player(s) who makes the roster.

Who could that surprise player(s) be?

I probably won't be alone on this one, Robert McCune.

Who's your pick TLusby?

I'm going with Kevin Dyson. I know it is a long shot, but I still got a good feeling about it.

Any of the players you're not expecting much from this season.

Honestly, I see either Walt Harris or one of our LBs stepping up.

I can see him developing into a D. Hall for us... returning kicks and occsaional WR snaps, slot maybe?

Holdman or the Nemo kid.
I think the Nemo kid could do some damage on short and goal.

As much as I would like to see McCune have success, I wouldn't be expecting much as of yet. I mean, he is a late round selection...

But, who knows?

Someone I would expect to see succeed and make the roster is Kevin Dyson. I see his old teammate Derrick Mason (SP?) is on the Ratbirds' roster now...

I saw some highlights of the superbowl that Dyson played in, very impressive. Hopefully he can bring that here.

Robert Royal.

Reasons:
- He started to look a lot more comfortable towards the end of last season in the system and getting open.
- I believe we will be seeing a lot more spread formations, so when he does come on the field defenses will be concerned about running plays.
- Cooley will start to get more attention, so when they are on the field together, defenses will be more concerned with Cooley.

I think that is a very good choice.

Hey Jimster,
Very good perception on the Royal and Cooley on the field problem. That could turn out to be a real good combination.

I am hoping this is Taylor Jacob's year to break out.

If he stays healthy, I think he will have a huge year. He along with Moss could be a deadly duo for the next 5 years

This is going to be Joe Gibbs breakout year.

Royal will get double digit TDs...if he stays healthy.
One of our big WRs will step up - either Dyson, McCants, or that arena MVP. The other 2 will be cut.
Holdman will make us say "Antonio who?"
Patten will emerge as the #1 WR.

Whoah, easy killer! I don't think Royal will get double-digit TDs...I guess its possible, but I think if any TE/H-back is going to get double-digit TDs it will be Cooley.

My surprise player will be Dockery. I think this is the year he comes out and dominates. He's been showing improvement each season, and this is the year he will dominate.

If I had to pick just one, I'd say Ramsey. I think he'll take his game up a notch or two. With his arm, toughness and brains, he could be the next Joe Gibbs QB.

I agree with Taylor Jacobs.

I guess the point of the thread was which player(s) would make the team that is considered camp fodder at this point.

I forget his name, but what about the MVP reciever from the Arena league


Found it-Damien Harrel 6'3 WR

every player could be a suprise, if you are expecting certin players to be suprizes, then thet aren't suprizes.

Clifton Smith and Kevin Dyson are my picks though I do think Prioleau will be a very good pickup for Special Teams.

Bowen might just break out as well. I think we saw his potential before he got hurt last year. If he can keep that pace up and if Taylor can keep progressing, watch out!

Clifton Smith- starting middle backer by end of year.

Now that would be a surprise! I have a feeling that Harrel (WR) might be the surprise which would lead to McCants getting the axe.

slowing improving!!! huh? what da ?, some imposter must be on jrockster's keyboards!!!! I know he wouldn't have made a grammatical mistake like this.:nono: :nono: :nono: :nono:
just can't be.

If by suprise you mean a player doing better than expected, I'd be suprised by any rookie making a significant primary impact.

WR - Moss. LB - McCune.

I think Holdman and Daniels may be pleasant surprises this year!

as far as the season goes i believe we will be surprised at the production we get from all the backs....Portis,Betts,Nemo and white...i have to believe gibbs is going to pound, grind,ram,force it then pound again until it's driven all the way in....

jtyler42
July-26th-2005, 03:44 AM
I think the player we will be surprised by is Manuel White on O...He will be the starting H-back and Cooley will slide to TE and become a star...

On D the player that will surprise is Phillip Daniels...

Anyone.....Ryan Clark?

I've got a feeling David Patten is going to be big for us this year.

I think on O it will be Moss, I think he'll do much better than most project him to do.:cheers:

Camp fodder- dunno. But I'll go with this pick. He's an emotional guy. He'll have a chip on his shoulder and hopefully play like it!
Second coming of Ray Lewis? :fingersx:
