I wonder why no smart alecky comments about Schweigert? This site makes a living at taking cheap shots at players, and yet with such an easy target like Schweigert all lined up for the kill, the site pulls its finger off the trigger. Interesting, considering how badly Schweigert has been throughout his career... I wonder what the real criteria is that can get a player bashed or congratulated on this site. BcB Hmmm…

Schweigert does neither. He makes Deion Sanders look like Dick Butkus. I've never seen a safety take his position name to heart: he stayed "safe" on every play. Nobody could dive at an opposing RB's ankles like Schweigert -- and miss. Redskin Fan will no doubt believe the Heavens have again opened and delivered unto them an athletic savior. But much like a scene at an all-you-can-eat buffet after Lenny P. has had his way with it, Snyder has another misfire and has the fans believing otherwise.

This is a great example. After boycotting OTAs every year he finally is going to attend; but pulls a move straight out of Fred Davis' playbook. Redskins do need him for those 6 weeks he can stay healthy though. Springs is the antithesis of a leader. This is a great example.
