Are the redskins gearing up for 5 WR sets?

that is cool!!
....but in real life, lloyd sucks and Cooley needs to be a TE mostly cause he usually only matches up well with LBs/safeties.

Someone else had a post about Cooley taking wideout quick screens...I disagree with that.
Cooley doesn't have a killer first move like Moss, ARE or Portis.
A corner is trained to take someone down 1 or 1 in open space, if the dude doesn't have a juke, he doesn't have a chance...unless, he can plow over the guy and 1 second later, a safety too.

The only kind of screen Cooley could take would be an old school screen with 2 linemen blocking for him...and that is risky these days since that would limit us to the left side linemen
