He is a true leader. This man has "the right stuff" for the NFL and beyond.

If his last name wasn't Moss would we even care about this guy?

I'd love for him to pan out but I'm keeping my expectations pretty low.

Agreed.

He's got pedigree. Maybe that'll work for him. And us.

The opportunity is wide open for him. His Daddy would take advantage. Will he?

Cornelius Lucas - our best bet at starting LT to start the season. I really like what Im reading on him. Not that he is going to be some stud pro bowl LT but he looks like a real good value add.

72.2 PFF grade

2019 - first year he was given a chance to start. Started 8 games for the Bears, played in all 16.

------------------------------------------------

Not only did Lucas play significantly more last season than he had in previous years, but he more than held his own along the Bears' offensive line.

Lucas allowed only one sack, per STATS LLC and gave up 12 pressures while incurring zero penalties on 507 snaps.

For his efforts, Lucas was named the Bears' most improved player in 2019, according to Pro Football Focus. He finished the year with an overall grade of 72.2, the first time in his career he graded above 65.0.



Lucas has never been seen as a full-time starter, but as it stands, he could assume that role for the Redskins in 2020.

Lucas started six games at right tackle last season and two at left tackle, and while Morgan Moses seems to have right tackle locked up, the other position remains wide open.

2 yr/5.3M deal .. lots to like. Not saying the guy is the answer but perhaps he can stick around, maybe be our starting RT next year once we find our LT anchor.

What have you been smoking today? Morgan Moses doesn't even have a place on the roster locked up after the way he played last season.

He didn't play good for sure, but can we afford not keeping him on the roster ? I'm not sure. Tackle is a position of need no matter how you put it.

Moses has been getting progressively worse year by year.

Exactly. I hope we can coach up one of the OT players we have now, or pick up a FA dropped by other teams late in the PS. Then start Moses but bring on the new guy with some play time. Game time competition. If Moses pulls his head out of his azz and start s playing well - great. But I think he will continue to go downhill and be replaced sometime season. Too many penalties, too many missed blocks and he even pulled Scherff down with him. We’re going to get someone THIS season to replace Moses

You know what: good to read that.
I know pretty close to nothing about him, and if he can turn into another Ereck Flowers like nice surprise, I like it!

Now that the draft is over, I'm running out of things to even bother looking up on the internet. My reading breakdown was: 90% sports, 5% news, 5% miscellaneous. I'm over reading the news right now, so I'm out on 95% of my internet usage. I really need to learn to like reading books.

I did go on Amazon Prime and save some sports movies. Might need to watch Friday Night Lights tonight.

I’m waiting for Kyle Smith to pick up the “cast offs” during TC but especially late in the PS. Late in the PreSeason other teams will be making the toughest cuts. Some good players will be dropped simply because they have too many average or above average players at a certain position.

For the positions where we are are very thin with players - such as at TE, OT and maybe CB. Especially at TE where the Redskins are VERY thin, with no definitive starters, adding a few oils recastoffs could instantly improve the TE crew. We would have their college tape and more importantly their PS film to evaluate their worth. The best thing is that they will come VERY CHEAP for one year contracts. Very high potential for a low, low cost.

The other teams will do all the work and we reap the reward. Our cap limit is very high $21 mill, which will carry over to next year when we sign the best of these new pickups. I am very interested to see how this new strategy works!!

I’m not throwing the towel in on Moses, bring in competition to challenge him but I still think he has the tools to be a quality RT.

I'm with you, he's been inconsistant but I don't think he's that bad. The penalties need to significantly decrease though.

I'm completely done with Moses. Check out the video where Alex Smith gets his leg crushed. There is Moses watching JJ Watt hitting Smith after Moses just gave yet another DL a free run at the QB on one of his matador blocks. How many times do we see him unsure of which player to block on a blitz and deciding to block neither of them?

He doesn't just pile up false starts. His false starts are at the worst possible times for the team: when we're pinned deep, inside the Red Zone, inside the 5-yard line, moving us outside of field goal position, in the 4th quarter.

Also, I don't see the fire in him. He looks like he's working a 9-5 job.

If he's going to take a penalty, why doesn't he just tackle the DL who just got by him is about hit our QB? He could at least holler "Fore!", "Ole!", or "Watch out!".

Moses didn't seem like he had a lot of passion to play, unlike Penn (he certainly showed it on the field last year even though he knew he was playing for Redskins just for one year). But I don't think it's fair for us to assume that Moses doesn't have the passion, hence the famous quote - don't judge a book by its cover. Some people don't express themselves openly like some people do. I remember Moses had to play through ankle injuries on both ankles in the 2018 season, in fact, he was the only Oline player to play full 16 games that year. After the season, he had to get an ankle surgery to fix the issues. I find it hard to believe Moses would play through those injuries if he didn't have the passion.

Although I'm with you - I think we need to replace Moses when we get an opportunity to find a replacement.
