Redskins Awarded WR Dez Briscoe, A Popular Man On Waivers

Found August 01, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Dezmon Briscoe,  Brian Hernandez
TEAMS: Washington Redskins,  Dallas Cowboys,  Philadelphia Eagles,  Cincinnati Bengals,  Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Washington Redskins have been awarded wide receiver Dezmon Briscoe off waivers from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and cut wide receiver Brian Hernandez. Briscoe was a popular target on waivers as he was the subject of competing waiver claims from the Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles and the Cincinnati Bengals, according to a league source. Briscoe fell out of favor with the Buccaneers after being absent from the offseason program due to personal issues. Briscoe is a former Bengals sixth-round draft pick from Kansas. Briscoe was cut by the Bengals two years ago and then claimed by the Buccaneers.

Redskins look to improve production at safety

Via AP on Fox  |  July 31, 2012
On an improved defense last season, the Washington Redskins' safety play was still a weak link. Strong side starter LaRon Landry never truly recovered from the Achilles injury that ended his 2010 season prematurely, and newcomer Oshiomogho Atogwe was often ailing and wasn't the playmaker he had been during his best years with the St. Louis Rams. Exit Landry and Atgowe....

Washington Redskins Players Have Been Using iPads To Anonymously Talk Trash To Each Other

Via The Sports Lion  |  July 31, 2012
NFL teams have been replacing the good ol’ playbooks with iPads over the past year, and it seems to be very convenient. No more carrying around large binders with plays in them, right?
