Deep threats and screen threats.

Aren't you always skeptical? At least you're consistent. Maybe shanny thinks these guys skill sets mesh well with our offensive scheme and RG3. Eddie Royal has a connection with Shanny in Denver. Morgan and Garcon both young and fast. Be happy we aren't settling for the status quo. Or don't, your choice...

I'd be 100% on board if this way worked, but it never does. I don't see any of the winning organizations doing this every year. I understand Royal has the connection but he really is just another ho hum wr. I'd just rather see if Paul & Hank can progress since we drafed them and they have a year under the offense. It's the constant falling in love w/ other teams players.

As for Garcon... Doesn't Luck need wr's just as much as RG3? So why'd Indy just let him walk? Yeah...that makes me skeptical.

1) Hank will still be around and maybe Paul.

2) Indy offered Garcon $7 mil a year and he turned them down. They hardly "just let him walk."

OK...wasn't aware of that.

Indy didn't let him walk, they offered him a contract 5yr 35mil don't know how much was guaranted and he said NO. PG knows there rebuilding and probably wanted out IMO.

Guess you forgot about last year already.

Outside of Gaffney who is mostly a possession guy, we had nobody that could stretch the field or make plays after the catch.

Can you be any more pessimistic? Every time i read one of your post you are bitching about something..

Eric Wright and although no one has mentioned it, I think they are dealing with Reggie Nelson. Also, our CB Barnes will be moving to saftey.

Its just a guess

all the old faces in our wr group will be gone only hank will stay

If Moss gets cut after June 1 doesn't that save the Skins over $3 million? I thought his deadcap number significantly drops after June 1.

I think DHall saves us over $6 million when cut after June 1.

I would let those two guys go and use their projected savings towards Fletcher.

I also heard something about the Skins being interested in John Carlson? If true, that might not bode well for Cooley. Although perhaps Cooley could be moved to backup FB in the spot just vacated by the Mike Sellers release...

Why we already have a very good fullback on the roster

- Moss' deadcap hits would be $4M in 2012, or after June 1st $2M in 2012 and $2M in 2013.

- DHall saves us $6M no matter when we cut him. His deadcap hits are negligible.
