Re: Redskins Sign DeSean Jackson

Moss has value as a 4th WR in the slot in 4-WR sets. He also has the ability to replace Andre Roberts in the slot if Roberts gets hurt. You keep Moss active as your #4 on game days, and I probably make him my primary punt returner.

or at least seeing what was written. if someone comes in here and blows it up, great. but saying you KNOW they will and hank/robinson WILL be cut is silly. show me some results first. let's not make assumptions, that based on history, are very low probability.

Did C Redskins quote you? I thought he was just saying that we should change the way we handled young talent in the past?

The Moss era needs to end. Cut the cord. Can't have an old guy as your 4th or 5th wr.

As cruel as this sounds, the 4th or 5th spots really need to be for young physical special teams players. Note I said physical (tackling, wedge busting, gunner, blocking) not a little return guy (Moss) that is not known for physical play.
The Redskins need to get more physical on special teams.

Re: Redskins Sign DeSean Jackson

Kind of off topic but with the signing of Djax it would easier to wash our hands of PG if he doesn't perform. Gtripp's bet is looking stronger by the day. =)

Robinson can't catch. If you can't catch by 7th grade then you can't catch.

I don't know about that ... even hands of stone Carlos Rogers started catching some interceptions. It just depends on how much Robinson is willing to work (on it).

Re: Redskins Sign DeSean Jackson

I feel that we can draft a player with size like Brandon Coleman for cheap, develop him then either trade or let Hank walk. That is the better move for the cap IMO.

Re: Redskins Sign DeSean Jackson

I'd like to turn the conversation back to laughing at our friends in Philadelphia for making DeSean Jackson available for us, please.

Post your funny Philly fan gifs.

Re: Redskins Sign DeSean Jackson

Let me be the millionth to say: really happy about this deal and the dimensions it gives the Redskins offense.

I figured that going from Shanahan to Gruden would make the Redskins offense a lot more watchable, but I didn't think they'd be able to get the pieces they needed to contend in 2014. They just might have done that.

Let me add, if the following is true, and it's not hard to believe:

“With Reid, [Jackson] tried pushing boundaries there, too, but he looked at Reid, I think, much differently than he looked at [Kelly]. Reid came in with an NFL pedigree. He was the guy that drafted [Jackson]. He was the one that called him on draft day and laid the law down right then: [Reid] wouldn’t tolerate any outside interference from anyone. Now you get this college guy [Kelly] and he’s not going to tell [Jackson] what to do. [Kelly] has a vision for this team—and he is a very old-school coach in a lot of ways. But there’s only so much [a coach] can take.”
then I think we get good mileage out of him, and the way the Skins FO handled him was exactly right. Griffin then DHall then even Garcon, let him know he's wanted. I think he has to respect what Gruden has done with his offenses. So yeah, Philly's loss is our gain.

Re: Redskins Sign DeSean Jackson

who has a better 1/2/3 than us right now? the bears i guess, denver? others might, but i'm having trouble naming them. I believe we're in the 3-5 range there as of right now.
