turtle28 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Smithson spent the entirety of his rookie season on the practice squad until Tuesday’s call-up. He signed as a college free agent out of Kansas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should have been drafted IMO but he is a little undersized but his insticts to date on film have been noticable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dashing202 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Honestly a safety in the firsts round could be a big must . It's time the find that two safety tandem we wanted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavar703 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I like the kid. I think he has a chance to stick around and make some plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Okay, I've been away for a long while (sorry about that all, was working crazy hours before Christmas (put in 48 in 4 days) and then at in-laws who have little to no connectivity). Got back yesterday night. On 12/19/2017 at 7:38 PM, Dashing202 said: Honestly a safety in the firsts round could be a big must .

So, how did Fish look? Honestly, between Swearinger (the rare signing I liked this offseason) and Nicholson (who I will admit has played much better than I thought he would), I'm not sure the Redskins need to invest heavily in a safety. If Smithson looked good or at least serviceable, they might not need to look at the safety position this off-season. Honestly, that would be to the best because the Skins need to continue to invest in the front seven. If they're staying with the inexplicably stupid thought that we run a 3-4 (even if we only use it for 30% of the time), then they at least need a NT and potentially two new ILBs (I'm getting less sure that they're going to re-sign Brown, and Foster and Compton are gone). Okay, yes, they have Spaight and Vigil, but I'm not sure I would want to be relying on them as my two starting inside 'backers if I were the GM.

It was the Everett & Swearinger show. My argument has just been in S is by far the BPA you shouldn’t pass on them. I think at some point we draft a S in the mid rounds again to develop behind Swearinger & Nicholson and because Nicholson hasn’t proven he can stay healthy yet.

Swearinger wiffed on Darkwa so many times I lost count including his 70 yard run. For someone who talks so much he sure misses a lot of tackles and blows a lot of coverage. I like the guy, but he makes a lot of mistakes. Everett just isn’t a starter for anyone. He should be our 4th safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
