You do realize that they have a better team overall, so even if we had drafted Yates, that there would be a lot of other pieces missing?

TJ Yates > Dejone Gomes. 5th round pick was all it would have taken. All that would have been missing was Gomes.

Actually I thought Gomes gave us a pretty good season. Hard to believe Yates would have beat Grossman out in a straight competition. But hey hindsight works wonders.

Without Adrian Foster, Johnson, and a solid TE/Line, TJ Yates wouldn't be doing a damn thing. Especially if he came here. That offense is loaded with talent.

He still has to play QB and he's doing enoug for them to win. Also he played a couple of games without AJ.

This is a pretty good anti-Yates argument.

Still, the inability to put anyone good on the roster at the QB position is a simple indication that the Redskins expected to be playing meaningful games right down to Week 17. For the second straight year. That's the only logical defense for not drafting someone who can play the position late in a lost season.
