09/04/2010 - Ashburn, VA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Redskins released 21 players from their roster as part of Saturday's "cut-down day" maneuvers, including three who won Super Bowl rings with the Pittsburgh Steelers back in 2008.
Running back Willie Parker, fullback Carey Davis and safety Tyrone Carter, each members of the 2008 Steelers team that would defeat the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, failed to catch on with the Mike Shanahan regime in Washington.
Parker, the three-time 1,000-yard rusher and two-time Pro Bowler, was unable to crack a crowded Redskins depth chart already including Clinton Portis and Larry Johnson.
Also released were wide receiver Terrence Austin, quarterback Richard Bartel, offensive tackle Selvish Capers, offensive lineman Erik Cook, linebacker Curtis Gatewood, nose tackle Howard Green, linebacker Robert Henson, wide receiver Shay Hodge, linebacker Rob Jackson, tackle Clint Oldenburg, offensive lineman Chad Rinehart, cornerback Ramzee Robinson, tackle William Robinson, safety Anderson Russell, defensive end Darrion Scott, running back Ryan Torain, tight end Lee Vickers and wide receiver Bobby Wade.
Notables among that group include the team's final three 2010 draft picks - Austin, Capers, and Cook - who were all seventh-round selections of the club back in April and could re-appear as part of the Washington practice squad.
Among veterans, Rinehart opened four games for the Redskins last season; Henson appeared in six contests with Washington in 2009; and Wade was a six-game starter with the Kansas City Chiefs a year ago
Also on Saturday, the team dealt cornerback Justin Tryon to the Indianapolis Colts in exchange for an undisclosed future draft choice.
Tryon, who was obtained from the Redskins in exchange for an undisclosed future draft choice, appeared in 29 games for Washington over the past two seasons, with a pair of starts.
The Redskins will open their season next Sunday night, when they host the arch rival Dallas Cowboys to open the Shanahan era.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
