Redskins Trade Jeremy Jarmon

[Ruhskins]

I wonder if Rosenhaus has any guards or centers as clients...

"Chris Russell
Jabar Gaffney is a client of @RosenhausSports - #Redskins have @EighttoDaNine @MrArmstrong13, @DonteStallworth , Gaffney, @HankTime85 w/Drew"

[NC_Skins]

All we need to do now is bring in Marko Mitchell and the WR circle will be complete.

Sure. Jarmon not a 3-4 DL. Gaffney an upgrade at WR. RT @JECKHART83 @espn_nfceast do you think the trade with the broncos is a good move

And that WRs have to learn ALL wr routes under kyle. Season starts in about a month.

People need to remember that we are coming out of a lockout. Veteran wrs will be needed in the early goings.

Redskins have 12 WR's on the roster (not counting Roydell Williams, who is still under contract). That's about right in a 90-man camp.

That really is the key. These young guys didn't get to go through OTAs and were robbed out of the experience. They'll have to step up big time to beat out the vets on the learning curve.

oh well lol No edwards

why is everyone in such an uproar over WR's .. yeah we drafted some "potential" talent .. how has that worked out for us over the last decade ? Are you kidding me. Gaffney is not Joey Galloway, he played nice last year and i'm sorry but was Jarmon "lighting" it up ? Wouldn't you rather have a crop of WR's that you can actually CUT because you have talent instead of picking up arena league guys before week 1. No offense to AA.

Moss
AA
Hankerson
Gaffney
Stallworth or Kelly is cut
Banks

Austin - PS

What's the problem here ?

Well, you've released three Shanahan draft picks between the 2010 and 2011 drafts for guys like Gaffney and Stallworth.

If that's not a problem to you, then there is no rebuilding occurring. The future is indeed now. Beck to the future.

Paul and Robinson are PS or throw away DP's?? The field is becoming much too crowded for reps. No way all these guys can get a good look.

Unfortunately, the lockout may have caused this. I was hoping Paul would make the team, but I had not thought of the lack of time they've been able to put in. The season starts in 6 weeks. They arrived at Redskins Park YESTERDAY.

Vets may be the way to go because of the lockout, but it's a shame we can't retain these young WRs with potential. Maybe we'll keep 2 on the PS and promote them with cuts/injuries later in the season when they get caught up.

[Ruhskins]

Peter King likes the move...

"Peter King
Love the Gaffney trade for Washington. Sure-handed possession guy, excellent route-runner. Brady loved him."

[Alvin Walton]

Niles Paul will make a more durable kick returner.
Cut Banks.

[skinsfaninok]

Gaffney will make this team, be our slot

[Big C]

this move is surprising. gaffney is decent, more of a possession receiver i think, but jarmon didnt fit in the 3-4.

[MTK]

Rookies are gonna struggle, big time, at least early on in the season. Not sure we can expect much from the likes of Hankerson or anyone else. And even the 2nd year guys lost valuable development time this offseason. I think we're looking for guys who can play now. And if that means cutting some picks or putting them on the PS so be it.
