Daisy days Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 (edited) Sean McDermott was just on NFL live on espn and was asked about the new wr corps and he called them the smurfs..... great new nickname in my opinion it was just on and I can’t find video of it..... but those were his words, seemed like he was making a joke about it.

John from Riverside Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 The new guys do we mean Brown and Beasley?

BringBackFergy Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 Pretty sure they called the 1980-90’s Redskins WR’s the Smurfs. Might be mistaken. 3 1 1
ghostwriter Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 Well, if you have a 5'8 WR creating 2-3 yards of separation you don't need to be 6'5. 3 1

Buffalo716 Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 Our wideouts really aren’t all smurfs Zay has good size for a WR Foster has good size Duke Williams great size beasley and McKenzie are pretty small but I wouldn’t say our Corp is all smurfs 2

If you use those 4 yea but I doubt any of those 4 are our outside 2 or starting slot come September

But if, in the interview, McDermott was talking about OTAs, then those are the 4 guys currently starting, since Zay and Beasley and Brown are either not there or not on the field. 2

Nanker Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 Marino killed us for years with Mark Clayton and Mark Duper AKA The Marks Brothers. Color or me not worried. 3
LSHMEAB Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 I'm fine with the nickname as long as he doesn't try to get cute and refer to the ever reliable Cole Beasley as "Handy" Smurf. That would be taking it too far. I do kinda respect the fact that McD wouldn't even recognize the double entendre. No time for shenanigans. The oldest guy is Brown, but I'm not seeing "Papa Smurf" in his future.

RoyBatty is alive Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 So what I have learned is McDermott can come up with stupid, goofy nicknames just like the fans. 1
