This is from RR's own mouth in a video I watched on NBC Sports Washington this morning.
So we head into this season with an unproven no 1, the committee thing is perfect.

My biggest concerns on offense heading into the season:

1. Left side of Oline
2. Left side of Oline
3. Can Logan Thomas be a no 1 guy in an offense which relies on the TE?
4. Can Haskins take a step in growth at QB?
5. Can we get production from a WR not named Sims jr and Terry?

1 and 2. I think you should consider adding RT to your list of concerns. Moses was horrible last season and yet he is still the starter. Well, he didn't get good all of the sudden.

3. No, Logan Thomas is not the answer at TE. He is a sub-par blocker, for one thing.

4. Yes, Haskins will be improved but he will still make mistakes and he will throw more interceptions than we would like. Still, he needs to play.

5. Not in any meaningful way.

We've got more team building to do. Nevertheless, I think we may need to make a stopgap move or two to improve the OT positions this season in order to prevent serious injury to Haskins.

I have the same concerns.
It's going to be easy to game plan for McLaurin if another WR doesn't step up.

McLaurin will get double teamed but there will be a lot of movement and scheme around chipping to protect Haskins, open up rb's, and offer quick outlets. I think this offense will surprise quickly.

Totally Agree. The one I am most sure is a problem is #3 and #5. This TE /
WR squad is so underwhelming.

I think Haskins will have some issues because of that.

I think we missed bigly on the tight end position this past offseason. We had options at every skill set level, wide net of free agents, less-than-optimal draft picks option, but still about 15 decent draftee available.

I feel Logan Thomas has been better than expected at camp which is a plus tho.

That being said, if left tackle/left guard regress...boy we fucked up big time. The entire offense will be terrible.

Good points.

I'm confident in Haskins. If he simply takes off where he finished last year, we have a very decent NFL starting QB. And I think better coached and having shown signs of good work ethic he'll be improving.
