Redskins Update, Part 1: Oops! (Part 12,807)


There are really three things you should know about the Redskins:

1) They have a pro-bowl caliber tight end in Chris Cooley to whom they just gave a 200 year, 4.7 bazillion dollar contract extension.
2) They are starting 35 year olds on their defensive line.
3) They had three second round picks in last year's draft, yet spent them on the following positions: WR, WR, TE.

Yes, they drafted a second starting tight end (Fred Davis). The fact that he literally slept through his first training camp isn't even germane to this discussion. What is germane is that one hour into the first practice of training camp, the Redskins starting defensive end blew out his knee. Did I mention he's 35 years old? And his back up, much like him, is someone you've never heard of?

I hope Fred Davis can play defensive line, but much like Daniel's backup, I doubt it.

You forgot to mention that Cooley's wife is flippin' hot! That's Bullet Point Numero Uno for the Skins now.
