Camp Quandries...

Redskins training camp gets underway today in Ashburn...and the second year of the Jim Zorn era has no shortage of question marks.

Things to look for...
Continued growth for Campbell--for the first time since early in his college career, the skins starting quarterback will enter a second straight season under an offensive system.

Which receiver will step forward?--last year's three second round picks Devin Thomas, Malcolm Kelly and Fred Davis combined for 21 catches... that won't work this fall as each has a year under his belt.

Hold the Line--the departure of Jon Jansen leaves the right tackle position open... will Stephon Heyer claim the spot or will we see a revolving door?

What will Haynesworth be?-- the Skins prize free agent signing has had multiple minicamps and OTA's to acclimate himself with coordinator Greg Blache's defense...

Orakpo's destination-- first the team has to sign their top draft pick...and then the rookie's education continues in a pair of positions--defensive end and linebacker.

Cut to the quick-- the good news this July is there's more depth on the roster. The bad news is the Skins can only keep 53...it will be interesting to see who plays their way into a Skins uniform this summer...or who plays his way off the team.
