Don't look now, but I'm supporting Bruce Allen. I think he was right all along. And I think he's right in acquiring Smith. Gruden's offensive scheme is going to make that pickup look pretty good.

wow a change of tune?? I have loved the trade since day 1. Saw a PFF prediction of Smith for 2018 and it had 27 Tds 8ints I believe and 4000 yards.

here it is

Statistical projection?
2017 was by far Smith’s best season statistically, ending the season as the NFL’s leader in quarterback rating (104.7). Over his entire career in K.C., Smith averaged 3,707 yards, 65.1% completion percentage, 21 touchdowns, and just 7 interceptions. All stats based on a per 16 game average.

During Kirk Cousins’s three years as the bonafide starter in Washington he averaged 4,392 yards, 67% completion percentage, 27 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions. Cousins also averaged 50 more attempts per season than Smith, which is due mostly in part to the playcalling differences between K.C. and Washington.

Should Smith average the same number of attempts his stats would look something like 4,055 yds, 23 TDs, and 8 INTs. Compare that to his most recent season in KC of 4,042 yds, 67.5%, 26 TDs, and 5 INTs and Smith may be in line to shatter his personal bests.

Prediction: 4,300 yards, 65%, 28 TDs, and 8 INTs

I don't mind Allen. I think his approach to things as a business decision helps balance Dan's fanboy tendencies. If Vinny was still there indulging him Kirk would have been the highest paid qb at some point and cap hell would still be the norm.

I think if we can pick up a dynamic WR, either in FA or Draft, we will have a good to great offense.

I still want Jarvis Landry, he can fill that Pierre Garcon role that we missed so badly this year

We need a #1 WR and he could definitely do the job; however, he will probably cost some team $15M or more per year. That would be a big cap hit for the Skins.

Any number 1 WR is going to cost you that

We can afford 1, maybe 2 top FAs, If it was me, I would make Jarvis Landry 1 of them.

I would rather trade Kirk to Denver for Sanders and sign Poe or Logan and resign Brown. And get a top tier rb like Hyde or Bell.

There is no way I am paying $15M for a WR who averaged 8.8 yds per catch

Jarvis Landry Stats - Miami Dolphins - ESPN

Wow, how's that posssible. 9 tds tho.

His career average is only 10.1. Lots of catches but not a lot of yards.

Yeah, that doesn't scream elite money to me.

Landry is a great yac receiver - i think his avg is due to the way he has been used in Miami, and how he has been put into the box of a short to medium threat only - i think hes talented, i think he has been a bit mis-used, but with that said, i dont think he is the answer nor do i think we should sign him.
