Commanders Sign Two Tackles; Kerrigan Officially Retires
#Commanders Sign Two O-Linemen, Release Another; Kerrigan Officially Retires #TakeCommand
Commanders Sign Tackles The Washington Commanders have been dealing with a depleted offensive line room with Cornelius Lucas on the non-football illness list, which led them to sign two linemen Saturday morning. The two tackles the team signed were Alex Akingbulu and Rashod Hill. In the corresponding move to keep the roster under 90 players, Washington released center/guard Beau…

Ranking the Redskins Top 5 Pickups
Another year of NFL football is upon us, and while we’ve had a few stagnant years as the Kirk Cousins era proved to be good, but not good enough, in comes Alex Smith, Derrius Guice and others to give the new look ‘Skins squad a real shot at winning the stacked NFC East.  Let’s take a quick a look at the major offseason acquisitions.
1)  QB Alex Smith
Tumblr media
Alex Smith had the talent of the 1st pick in the NFL draft.  Throughout the course of his career teams have decided he wasn’t good enough to keep.  He battled TD for TD with Drew Brees in a thrilling 2011 NFC Championship game, and was shipped out two seasons later.  Last year he threw for his first-ever 4,000-yard season and was a fluky last second playoff loss away from meeting the Patriots in the Divisional round, a team he dismantled on national television earlier in the year.  And yet, off he went again.
What he brings to Washington is a strong arm, nimble feet, and all the intangibles a coach can ask for.  He commands the huddle, moves the chains, keeps the ball, and routinely sets his team up to put points on the board.  He has a great snap count, and uses it when he needs it most, often to convert before an important third down, or to get a 3rd-and-long into a manageable distance.  
If you remember week 3 of last season, we put together a great game, but gave him too much time in the end.  I always felt as if we had a good chance with Kirk leading a game-winning drive, but with Alex Smith I see a good chance of us having the ball and the lead late. Although Kirk could have a huge year himself, I think we needed to end his chapter here in DC, and have found the man to do it right.
2.)  RB  Derrius Guice
Tumblr media
Finally... a complete three down back.  Rob Kelley was a bull, but not as nimble in the passing game.  Chris Thompson is a burner, but can get much in the trenches, and now Guice, a proven star at LSU, comes in to connect the dots, and gives the Skins a chance to open up the playbook on first and second down. He showcases strength in the trenches, a Marshawn-like stiff arm at the second level, and break away speed to take it to the house. Alex Smith is vital to keeping us in the hunt, but Guice is the player who has the potential to put us over the top.  If the fans take to him like the players have, he could very soon be a fan favorite in Washington.
3.)  Da’Ron Payne
Tumblr media
I haven’t seen many defensive players, with the exception of maybe Jadaveon Clowney and JJ Watt, enter the league as the most physically dominant guy on the team.  To put it in perspective, he bench pressed 460 pounds in high school, and has been turning baby fat to muscle ever since. Fast forward to the combine a few months ago, when he ran a 4.9 40 at 312 pounds.  Consider that he caught a touchdown pass, and scored multiple defensive touchdowns on both interceptions and fumbles, and you begin to realize that he’s not your average lineman.  More impressive than any of this is that he dominated the national championship game against a daunting Georgia front. Linking up with Alabama teammate Jonathon Allen, these two will assert themselves early, and barring any bad injuries, Payne strikes me as a surefire Pro Bowler, perhaps before anyone else on this list.
4.) Paul Richardson
Tumblr media
Like Alex Smith, I think his generic name, (think inverted Freakonomics) may have people thinking “who is he?”  but let’s be clear, he’s and up-and-coming receiver in the league and a great addition to the receiving core. 
He’s drawn comparisons to Desean Jackson, and although I think it exaggerates his speed a bit, it underestimates his great hands, his ability to run a more diverse route tree, and his ability to win balls in the air. My hope is that Gruden will use his speed in the same way, to sprint to the second level and make a move, while clearing room for Jordan Reed and Crowder underneath.  
Alex Smith has quietly become one of the games best deep passers, (think Tyreke Hill) and will be able to consistently find Richardson for chunk gains.  I’d still like to see the team add an all out burner, (the Aldrick Robinson role) but Richardson should come in and have a big impact right away.
5.)  Pernell McPhee
Tumblr media
He’s gotten lost in the shuffle of new players, perhaps because he is not likely to start, but he is the most proven acquisition of them all, having put in successful stints with the Ravens and the Bears.  He can play traditional linebacker or put a hand in the dirt, and is able to play almost anywhere in the front seven. This not only protects the team from last year’s injury woes, but also gives them the ability to bulk up around the goal line and bring more exotic blitzes on the edge.  The signing takes a page out of Tom Coughlin’s playbook, and you could see the Skins shuffle D-Line and edge rushers like the Jags.  If the motto this year is to be the biggest baddest defense, McPhee is certainly a step in the right direction.

According to TMZ, Reuben Foster's domestic violence charge has been dropped. This is a big deal. This might turn out to be a good investment for the Redskins. The news doesn't mean he won't get suspended (probably 6 games) but it makes the situation a lot better. - - - #redskins #redskins4life #redskinsallday #Redskinsnation #washington #washingtondc #washingtonredskins #skins #skinsnation #httr #nfl #football #hailfriday #httr4life #redskinscountry #dmv #dcrising #nfceast #burgandyandgold #redskinsfamily #skinscamp #hogs #hail #hailyeah #redskinshighlights #eastonlock #divisionchamps #skinsnation #skins4life (at WPGC 95.5) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsLkn_oB6K0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=rlg66ehtve54

Guice Gone, But Hope is Not:  The Redskins Backfield Explained
Tumblr media
With the signing of Adrian “All Day” Peterson, the Redskins have immediately addressed the injury concerns to Samaje Perine and Byron Marshall and the season-long loss of Derrius Guice.  AP will battle with Rob Kelley for early down work, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see the veteran get good usage.  
Looking at the tapes, AP clearly isn’t the same back that could bust through a hole and never look back, but he does still have great vision and an array of impressive jump cuts, which will allow him to find small lanes for good chunk gains.  He also is a physically imposing back, even at his age.  He has a wide frame that is hard to wrap up and a stiff arm that makes sure you won’t.  He also still has traces of the shiftiness at the second level that can lead to double digit gains.  
The downside to his game now is speed and explosion.  He simply can’t get to top speed as quick as he used to, which may cause him to struggle with sweeps and runs to the outside, and i find it hard to believe he will break out many 20+ yard runs, but he will be a great asset in finding yards in the trenches and converting on third-and-short and goal line opportunities.   Also, a well-timed screen play that allows him to get up sprinting speed could bring back flashes of the days in which AP earned his spot in Canton.
How does he fit in?
Tumblr media
First off, let me say that I have a lot of faith in Rob Kelley.  I think he starts every game that he is healthy.  The former bowling ball with dreads known as “Fat Rob” has slimmed down and chopped the locks, added some shiftiness, but still has the same battering ram style while finishing his runs.
While Peterson may be the better dual threat back, Kelley is the type of back that will wear defenses out, and in only his third season, we have yet to see his best.  Ideally, he learns a lot from the veteran this year, and is able to have a career year while AP spells him occasionally.  Chris Thompson is still the lightning rod on third down, so no need for AP there.  I imagine Rob Kelley gets 12-16 carries a game for 60-80 total yards, while AP gets 6-10 carries for 30-50 yards, as well as a few important conversion runs.
What the Backfield Lacks
Tumblr media
The complete back, the one teams spend all week prepping for.  Each of the backs on the roster is missing a key ingredient, whether is be size, speed, or vision, and that is what makes the loss of Guice so devastating.  He could bust a run or catch a pass on any down and take it to the house, and that will surely be missed.
Challenge Accepted
Tumblr media
The challenge now will be to find a diverse set of plays that maximizes the versatility of each back (albeit it fairly limited versatility from Perine and Thompson), then disguise their usage in the offense.  While the Guice loss stings, the power of Kelley, AP, and Perine, mixed with the burner Chris Thompson and the precise route runner Kapri Bibbs, this backfield still has the ability to baffle defenses and move the chains, a nice compliment to the efficient Alex Smith.  
Despite adding another power back, the team may still be best served to give Chris Thompson more work, mixing in screens and plays where he is motioned out of the back field and targeted on short passes.  With two healthy and dynamic tight ends, Thompson becomes a nightmare in one-on-ones with linebackers.  I like a two headed monster of Kelley and Peterson, but a full route tree for Chris Thompson frees up Jordan Reed, Crowder and others, creating a pick-your-poison situation for opposing defenses.
