re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan
 

I like these aquisitions

I think Garcon and Hank will compete to become the number 1 guy. Both have what it takes to be that guy.

Royal will get back on track here IMO, hometown kid.

Morgan has size and is a low risk high reward aquisition.

Another odd consequence might be that the Redskins/Cowboys rivalry will take a back seat to both the Giants/Redskins and Giants/Cowboys. I mean if the Redskins/Cowboys rivalry was ignited over the rights to a song then imagine what this will do.

I think you bring a good point...and I would like to emphasize how much of a departure from the "old ways' these signings are. All of these guys are 25-26, haven't reach their full potential. And they may end up reaching 1000+ yds as Redskins.

Yes sir. Better to catch them on the ascent than on the descent.

Besides, Garcon came close to 1,000 yards with Curtis Freakin' Painter in charge of the offense.

re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan
 

Do you guys think that it should be a concern that LH is our tallest WR at 6'2? I mean, if he pans out, awesome. But without him, we are looking at Davis for our jump balls? Not a huge factor in all this, but just curious what others though.

Also, maybe someone can answer this for me. When a team makes a trade for a restricted player and is required to give up a 1st round pick...does that team, if they have two 1st rounders, have the right to give them whatever 1st rounder they want? Or do they have to give them the pick that the team earned by their own record?

re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan
 

Signings were a little bit too much for me but at least we got young players. We still need help on the OLINE, MLB, and secondary, but maybe they have a plan through the draft we will see. still would have liked to go after the kid from the texans but he might have been too expensive. Who knows.

In his one game, Hank was showing some good vertical ability. It would be nice to get a big guy though, although at this point WR would be an overkill.

If you have a big athletic tight end you don't necessarily need a tall receiver on the outside, it helps but its not necessary, The Packers and Patriots don't really have giant all receivers. I believe the first round that your record indicates, so if the Patriots wanted to give up a pick it would be the 31 and not the 27th. Not sure though.

I forgot about Hank but yea he is lengthy but we have at least decent size in regards to WR and tight end.

You are correct. You surrender the pick you earned, not the pick you traded for.

It looks like our draft class will consist of all olineman and dbacks

Wasn't the worlds tallest man in the news today because he stopped growing. Maybe we should pick him up. Do you think it will be a problem if he runs a 56.3 40 with crutches?

re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan
 

Are we keeping Gaffney? I'm thrilled if so. I just thought he wasn't going to make the cut. Even still, there isn't a guy who just towers over the competition. Not that all corners are giants, but it's nice to know that there is a guy who can reach over the pack in tight groupings.

After being the most productive of our wide receivers last season, and the fact that he's a veteran player, I would think that Mike Shanahan would consider keeping Gaffney a top priority.

I'd just as soon keep Gaffney and use the cap elsewhere.
