Adding Hightower to the RB corp wouldn't really move the needle for me. "just a guy" type signing. Hopefully we are seriously looking in the draft for a difference maker.

I agree Chico. I hope that we pass on Hightower and wait to get a RB in the draft.

Hightower had 32 first downs rushing last year..... how many did the Redskins have ?

He would be a nice addition, maybe 3rd and two would no longer be a passing down.

Good competition to push Matt Jones.

Just cut Jones already, he's a tin-man, no heart.

The putdowns of Hightower are unwarranted, IMO. He is a good all-around back as a secondary option. He has averaged 4.0 per carry throughout his career, he's not a fumbler, and he won't cost much. If you're looking for a primary back, then draft one. Hightower won't get in the way of doing that.

I could align with that verbage.

I've got no problem with giving TH a look, he's been very productive the last two years.

Now that SM is gone, I don't see Jones on the team next year and I say with 100% confidence, 1 of our 10 picks will be a rb.

I still want to see what Keith Marshall can do too.

It's just too early to give up on Jones. The game before he was benched he looked pretty good. He's had some really good games for us. Just needs to clean up the fumbling issue and look like he wants to be out of the field. But I think you're right, the staff is probably done with him now that SM is gone.

Marshall looked like he was scared to hit the hole hard in pre season, and just wanted to break everything outside. I was not impressed with him at all.

He hasn't lived to his potential, let's see what the Redskins can do with him. Could be a sleeper pick.

I cant find it online...but this is a quality, depth signing who seems like insurance for Doctson. Quick is coming off his best season last year who should knock Grant from the rotation. Really like this pick up.
