Redskins Hoping to Sign Bridges after Workout


Recommended Posts

http://www.wusa9.com/sports/story.aspx?storyid=85243&catid=25

The minicamp gave Zorn his first look at the team's draft picks and a chance to evaluate some undrafted rookies and other players brought in for tryouts. One player who made a good impression is guard Jeremy Bridges, who spent the last three years with the Carolina Panthers. The Redskins scheduled Bridges for a physical and hoped to have him signed Sunday night.

I was hoping we could resign him. He's a solid backup.

with a qb like jake who cannot scramble at all our OL will always be frowned upon..:(

That doesn't make any sense. The point of having a good OL is that the QB doesn't have to scramble. Dan Marino was a virtual statue, but you didn't hear people knocking guys like Richmond Webb and Keith Sims because of it.

Back on topic, word indeed was the Skins might sign D J Hackett as well.

I still think we made a mistake in cutting him but I can understand why we did it..Our WR need to do more than play the position…playing special teams..Blocking..and with Hackett’s injury history that just could not work with him..but I think they got a good WR all they need know is a competent FO

this is the stuff we should be seeing, and let me point out that this has been happening this offseason where players are leaving and starting elsewhere. All the while, they were only backups for our team.

When the Patriots got those extra picks due to them losing their own players without compensation, I remember hearing how we haven't had that happen because we couldn't coach up players...

Just thought I'd throw that out there... =P

I wouldn't exactly say he is mobile but he did have 2 scrambles for TDs last year. He was also only sacked 20 times all year. What exactly do you expect??

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
