And we let crowder go in the same offseason that we let Doctson go - this one. Crowder got paid far more than we would have and we have Trey Quinn who is basically a younger cheaper Crowder.

Due to getting some undrafted free agents and very low draft picks (like Terry Quinn who was a 7th rounder) in the WR group is the reason that group has come back. Getting a walk-on to make the roster, much less become a premium player, is a freaking miracle.

Steve Sims- undrafted
Terry Quinn - 7th round
Harmon - 6 th round

Of course the Redskins will claim it was all part of the plan for WR. But whether it was because we thought the players like DJax or Garçon or Crowder were getting too expensive or too old it was pretty much blind luck that we rebuilt the WR group this year.

None of these guys has had an NFL catch yet. Great promise, yes. Established WR come back, not yet.

My point exactly. We let 1000 Yd, proven WR walk out the door and are banking on rebuilding the WR crew based solely on POTENTIAL. If that potential turns into catches and TDs, then it was partially due to the blind luck of walk-ons and very low draft picks who RARELY workout.
