This is good news.

“It was real impressive to see our draft choices and see their size and speed and their quickness, the things we were hoping for,” Shanahan said. “Their ball skills were very evident out there the last few days. It was a good practice.”

The size, speed and athleticism that made Amerson, Thomas and Rambo attractive to the Redskins certainly was evident. And they took well to the defense.

Going to be a big deal that we get hits out of these three draft picks. Sure, the other are important as well. However, given the weakness in the secondary, if Thomas and Rambo turn out to be excellent picks, it will impact a very big part of the main roster need. Will be fun to watch these guys in pre-season.

Agreed!! . . . I know they were lower round draft picks, but i am really excited to see what they bring as they seem to be big upgrades over what we have been playing with . . .

I'm glad we got some decent secondary guys cause call them a joke last year would be understating their play!
