given out unofficially by the fans for years to each preseason's most hyped
players
Washington Redskins Womens Hoodie , but now we've made it official, and will bring it to a vote. This week's vote will cover the entire offseason leading up
to Thursday’s game against the Patriots. Place your vote for who you feel has
been the most hyped player up to this point, whether the hype is deserved or
not.The Rules:1. Player must have been drafted late or signed by the Redskins as
an undrafted free agent. Players that have only been on other teams practice
squads that are signed by the team are also eligible.2. A player that has been
on the team for several years is still eligible if most of that time has been
spent on the practice squad, inactive, or with very limited productivity/timeHow
have past Mason/Brennan winners done in thr NFL after receiving this glorious
award?The Candidates:CB Danny JohnsonJohnson has been getting love from a lot of
people since joining the Redskins as an UDFA this year. The most important love
of all has come from Head Coach Jay Gruden who mentions him a lot during his
pressers. Johnson has been making plays throughout camp, and is expected to
shine in the preseason. Many people have him as a sleeper for the last spot in
the secondary. His hype is on the rise.OLB Pete RobertsonPete Robinson as most
fans still call him will make people remember his name in the preseason.
Robinson is another player that gets official hype from his head coach, and from
fellow players including his cousin Trent Williams. Robinson will push to have
the team keep a 5th OLB this year.WR Maurice HarrisIs Harris still eligible for
this award after being in 16 games for the Redskins over his two year career?
Hell yes he is. 12 career catches and the best TD catch of the season last year
hasn’t knocked him out of the Hype! awards just yet. Harris was an UDFA two
years ago and was cut before last season started. He wasn’t activated until
November

camp, could this be his year to actually do something consistently?CB Adonis
AlexanderSupplemental 6th round draft picks have ZERO chance of being cut this
year, or so I have been told. Alexander was a hyped player last year, but took a
fall and the Skins were able to scoop him up for the low, low price of a 2019
6th round pick. He has all the physical tools to make it, and that’s what people
are investing their hype bucks in. ILB Shaun Dion HamiltonAnother Bama to add to
the collection. SDH has been getting rave reviews from coaches and is already
getting labeled a late-round steal. He's a smart player who had major injuries
in college end his last two seasons. He's gonna shine in preseason if he stays
healthy.S Quin BlandingHe should have been drafted higher...or at all! Blanding
is another player Redskins fans have hyped up as a potential steal at safety, a
position fans and the team have needed an answer at for years. He was one of the
highlights of a decent UDFA class that people are hoping can stick around this
year.ILB Josh Harvey-ClemonsWhat is more important than Head Coach hype? Getting
the Ken Meringolo hype seal of approval! JHC has been a certified hype machine
in camp and is the first one in at ILB when either starter isn’t available.
Another physical hype player who has some things the Redskins defense have been
missing. And those Kam Chancellor draft comparisons...WR Cam SimsWR? check.
6’5”? check. Making plays in camp in drills designed for the receiver to have an
advantage? check. We've have all the ingredients for a presesson hype monster
here.S Kenny LadlerCan a former CFL star make it on the Redskins
www.redskinscheapshops.com , or will he be heading north after the roster cuts next month. Ladler has a lot
of the beat guys penciling his name in as a sleeper candidate to make the team,
and has been all over the field in training camp.WR Trey QuinnTrey Quinn was
insulted when he heard he was nominated for this award, and immediately gave me
an award for being an idiot(this is proudly displayed in my living room next to
my journalism degree from Yuengling University). Mr. Irrelevant is the favorite
son of fans and coaches alike. He has been called a lock to make the roster by
97% of the world, and the other 3% are on the list. This hype has broken every
measuring device we have at Hogs Haven. Olisaemeka Udoh, OTSchool: Elon |
Conference: CAACollege Experience: RS Senior | Age: 21Height / Weight: 6-5 /
327lbsProjected Draft Status: 4th - 6th roundNFL Comparison: Vladimir
DucasseCollege StatisticsN/APlayer Overview4-year starter for Elon after
redshirting his freshman year. Udoh was named first team All-American and has
received invites for both the East-West Shrine Game and the NFLPA Collegiate
Bowl. He is the first player from Elon to play in either contest since 2014. He
impressed enough at the Shrine Game to earn an invite to the Senior Bowl. In his
senior year, he was a vital part of an Elon offense that averaged 199.5 rushing
yards a game and gave up a Colonial Athletic Conference low 16 sacks. Elon also
finished second in the conference for most rushing TDs with 22 on the season.
Started at right tackle for the Phoenix but some scouts have him projected as a
guard at the next level. He worked out in both positions during practice at the
Senior Bowl.StrengthsSize. He obviously has the frame to play at the next level.
He measured in at the Senior Bowl at 6’5 ?” 327lbs. Having dropped some weight
from his time at Elon.Length. He measured in with the largest wingspan of any
player at the Senior Bowl at 85”Strength. Udoh showed real raw power at the FCS
level. Showed the ability to manhandle guys in the run game especially.High
ceiling. Raw talent that has a lot of potential given time. You can see flashes
of dominance on filmRun game. His strength is in the run game. Had to pull and
run in the screen game at Elon. Climbs well to the second level.WeaknessesRaw.
Along with that high ceiling comes a low floor. Udoh is raw and is seen by some
as more of a developmental project.Lean. Has a tendency to lean in pass sets,
leaving himself vulnerable to speed rush and hand fighting moves.Competition.
MediaHow He’d Fit on the RedskinsThe Redskins obviously had woes at the guard
position this season
Washington Redskins T-Shirt , with Brandon Scherff, Shawn Lauvao, Arie Kouandijo, and free agent signing Jonathan Cooper all spending time on IR, and
injuries at times to replacements Tony Bergstrom and Luke Bowanko. Scherff is
obviously the guy at the right guard but the Redskins are in the position again
of trying to find the person to fit at left guard. Udoh could be that guy. The
raw ability we saw at Elon is quickly showing itself into something greater as
he faces higher levels of competition in both the Shrine Game and the Senior
Bowl. This is causing some scouts to rethink Udoh as a higher tackle prospect.
This versatility could help a Redskins team that has seen many shakeups on the
line. Udoh has the size and strength to step in and play guard right away, but
could also play out as a swing tackle if needed.
