[quote=firstdown;1019335]My guess is Kirk is not here next year.[/quote]

If we got offered a 1st, and Robert has an injury free year (relatively speaking), we'd be fools not to trade Kirk. I love Cousins, but I don't see the point to keep him when he'll be on the sidelines 90% of the time, and we could get an impact player with an extra first round pick (assuming one is ever offered). I wouldn't trade Cousins for anything less than a 2nd/3rd.

I know you might not be getting the same level, but I think backup QB is not very hard to replace. I still think you have to wait this year (which they're obviously doing) because if something major happens with RG3, then you really need to re-evaluate the whole thing.

Ok guys, kinda off the wall question, but it plays into tonight's game. I had my fanatsy football draft last night and waited too long for TEs and finally drafted Fred Davis late. How much upside/downside do you guys see for him this year if he is healthy for 16 games? I'm hoping for a 700-800 yard, 7-8 TD year. Is that realistic?

More than realistic

Fred late is a good move, he could be potential top 5 guy.

I guess as a Redskins fan, (not a fantasy football fan needing the Redskins TE to perform well) my thinking is that RGIII may stay in the pocket more this year, which would mean his passing stats go up and therefore his receiver's stats will be better. A healthy Garcon should get 1200+ yards and 9-12 TDs.

Thanks for the vote of confidence on Fred Davis. I know he and RGIII were really connecting last year before he got injuried. I am hoping he is the "bail out" receiver on 3rd down that Santana became late in the year.

Re: Steelers @ Redskins (Pre season game 2)
 

i think garcon will be in the 1100-1200 range. davis should get 500-800 yards. with 4 TEs it's harder to pin down.

[quote=skinsfaninok;1019333]^ yeah or the Jags[/quote]

I feel bad for Kirk if he ends up in OAK of JAC.

Why can't we just have two great ones.

The problem will be when their rookie contracts are up. Especially when you factor in Alfmo.

Excellent point. Also, "IF" KC is worth a first round pick, then sitting him is like benching a first round pick.

Re: Steelers @ Redskins (Pre season game 2)
 

I can't find who's active tonight. Trent, Alf, merriweather, London?

Re: Steelers @ Redskins (Pre season game 2)
 

Can't wait to see what happens tonight with the legend of Pat White.

Or to see how Orakpo bounces back from that devastating bruised thigh injury.

[quote=JoLo;1019328]We would have whooped them last year if it wasn't for a case of the dropsy's. I couldnt believe how many balls went through our hands in that game.[/quote]

That's right . . . we had like 14 official drops or something like that . . . including a couple that were sure TD's . . .

All of them but Merriweather will play tonight. Likely not very much though
