Redskins Offseason Thread

[skinsfan69]

Whatever we do I just hope we don't draft Jackson or Mayfield. Jackson's first instinct is to run and that's hard to coach out of him. Mayfield is too much of a risk, plays in a conference with weak defenses and throws to wide open wr's all the time. We're not getting Darnold or Rosen. The guy from Wyoming looks like Osweiler.

It's a crapshoot, nobody thought Wentz would be that good or that Goff would turn it around after last yr.. All said Luck was the next Elway and now look..

Just finished listening to the podcast of Cooley's show from Friday.

There was a general Jordan Reed discussion and the subject of his crappy blocking came up.

Cooley said he actually communicates a lot with Reed and is going to be working in the offseason with him on his blocking.

Cooley said Reed was serious on getting better and realized he has to.

This isn't a revelation by any means, but it is the first time I've heard about any efforts to improve it.

Unfortunately you cant get better on IR, dude is made of glass. I cant take him serious anymore, if he plays 8 games next yr I'll be shocked.

Exactly. Since when has getting better been an issue with Reed unless we are referring to his health? I do not even consider him part of the team. Moving forward TE is a definite need. If Reed suddenly stays healthy for more than three weeks at a time that is a bonus. Personally though i have seen , or not seen, enough.

You took the words right out of my mouth on that one. Reed just can't stay healthy, and i would hope the skins have a plan for replacing him. No way they are seriously counting on him to be a big part of 2018, not realistically at least.

Idk how I missed this, but w/e.

Positives - Reed recognizes his blocking is horrible and has decided to make that an offseason priority.

Negatives - Cooley was never the greatest blocker himself, not sure I want him teaching Reed the fundamentals.

We saw that the steelers couldn't stop jacksonville's run game, that is what we need a big time three down back that is able to take it to the house on any carry. There are some in this draft. If we get a stud RB, that alone will help the defense with the time of possession. I know we need other things as well but I would be looking to get a stud RB and don't wait to the 4th round to get one. Get the one you prefer not who is left.

Would you try and pay someone like Kris Richard (just let go by the Seahawks) to come in at DC if he doesn't get a head job?

He should be a HC candidate, I'd take him in a heartbeat as our DC. Manusky can coach LBs or something.

This is an of season fluff piece, but i still like Bennie Logan at the right price: Need to Know: Five possible Redskins free agent targets | NBC Sports Washington

I thought the team would pursue him last year.

Cooper would be great , Logan as well.. Pass on the rest, Teddy had a horrible injury and we've had a QB with that before, no thanks but wish the guy well.

Just saw a stat showing that every NFC team has gone to the NFC championship game at least TWICE since 1995 compared to zero from the Cowboys, Lions, and Redskins who haven't been since 91. Wow.

This is only a result of one of the worst owner in sports, Dan Snyder. We got bought by a buffoon who set the franchise back by twenty years. Sad but true

I just hate to think about Snyder...I just get irate. Really sad what this franchise has become.
