Redskins shopping Anthony Montgomery

I know we got Thomas..but Montgomery is younger..and could be more than a stop gap

Redskins defensive tackle Anthony Montgomery was displaced in the starting lineup by Albert Haynesworth this offseason, and now might be sent right off the roster.

A league source tells PFT's Mike Florio that Montgomery is being shopped in advance of next week's trading deadline.

I started a thread about this weeks ago. I can't remember who originally speculated about it, and who I sourced. I think he's been shopped for a while and the Panthers probably took a look at him and passed for some reason. Can't find the thread since the search function is disabled.

Here it is. Weren't shopping him back then, just Czarnecki noting that Montgomery was unhappy and that the Panthers might be a good landing spot.

I wouldn't mind picking him up but I doubt we would make a move for him. We've already picked up a few guys (Harris, Thomas, Leonard). I don't see how we could make room for him. He would be a good sign though. MAYBE IF WE CUT HAYDEN.

i dont think we cut hayden just because he may be the backup 3tech...we could cut burton

i think this would be a great pick up...but in ya'llz opinion is there any chance this will happen cuz i got real excited when i thought we'd go after shaun smith and that didn't happen

just a tip, I wouldn't ever get my hopes up until you see it reported in the form of "Panthers sign ....."

There are a lot of rumors around here and mostly saying, "should we get this guy"...

    • I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive lshort or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
    • Then please take a vacation from the team.
    • In addition to his weak arm he has to compensate in the pocket by throwing off his toes due to his height. Respectfully, its a handicap.
