They have a lot of Rb's, hope he makes the team but it's unlikely.

The ones who will make the roster are all old though if he sticks on the practice squad he could work his way up by next year.

Well the fact that it is Mike Shanahan helps.

Crowded backfield, but he's got a shot.

That is probably the best spot for him. If shanahan can't make anything out of him nobody can.

I don't see KW being able to play special teams, which you really need to do to catch on as a 3rd/4th RB. He's gonna have to impress them so much strictly running and catching the ball out of the backfield that they have no choice but to keep him. And I don't think that's likely. However, I really hope he proves me wrong. This is not one of those I'd rather he fail so I can say I told you so situations. He seems like a really good dude, and I'm sure he was disappointed with how his college career went. I hope he can step up and make it happen.


And I agree that despite their veteran depth, this might be the perfect situation for him. I hope so.

Uh-oh, Shannahan found his latest unheralded-out-of-college running back to turn into a pro bowler!


Good for super calves

Been calling for this since the season ended. Was hoping the Skins would draft him. He will make the team.

He's got a chance......as a Redskin fan I can tell you that our RB's are getting old and we desperately need some youth.....if he can impress, he'll stay

If he comes in to camp and shows that he can develop and has the ability, I think as a young back he will stick and some of the older backs may have a little trade value or higher salary, so it would make more sense to let them go.

He also has to show that he has overcome the ankle injury.

Well, his calves are a lock, but I'm not ready to commit to the rest of him quite yet.

You dumbshit. He had numerous chances!! If the NFL thought he didnt get his "fair chance" he'd have been drafted. Guess you know better than the LSU coaches and NFL.
