By the end of the season Robinson will be ahead of Porter on the depth chart. I've read he's had a fantastic camp.

Yeah, I agree with you on Robinson, but that still leaves the question on the depth at that position. Is Patrick capable of taking the #3 spot or is
Torrence going to be the man while Porter's unable to play? I have to admit I had high hopes for Washington when the news broke that the Saints
signed him - not that he would threaten the top 3 guys, but that he'd be a reliable and competent backup for the top 3. Now with the reports that
he was struggling at camp even before he got injured... I'm not so sure about his value anymore. Naturally it takes time to get accustomed to a new
scheme and he didn't play a whole lot last season due to injury so there's going to be some rustiness, but still it makes me somewhat concerned.

But like originally stated... these are small concerns compared to the overall strengths that this year's team seems to have - at least on paper.

I'm hearing Patrick's having a good camp too. Still a lot to learn, but the word is he's got great technique. The dude is smooooooth.

Washington was struggling with GW's system more than anything.
