Yeah, I'd totally be good with Banks walking.

Re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan

I just don't see the Redskins waiving Gaffney. I mean, they very well could. But the guy is a veteran WR and was the most productive wide out from last season. I'm looking for huge things from Pierre Garcon and Leonard Hankerson. Niles Paul didn't figure into the team's passing game that much last season, but maybe Paul will have a lot more passes thrown his way this year. Moss isn't going anywhere. He's the Redskins slot receiver and will be called upon to start of Garcon or Hankerson gets injured. Josh Morgan will definitely be in the mix. Brandon Banks, the Redskins could probably live without. Anthony Armstrong could very well make the team for a third straight season, but Terrence Austin could beat him out for a roster spot. Banks, I agree could be waived. But if he blasts his way for a TD on a punt or kick off return during preseason, look for him to stay put.

Patriots are (were?) eager to bring Gaffney back. Though they'll probably just wait to see if he's cut.

Would be kind of funny to see Stallworth and Gaffney back in NE

I've kinda thought we'd either have Moss or Gaffney this year, not both.

Re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan

Maybe the Eagles can tell us how they convinced the Pats to give them a fifth rounder for Greg Lewis, so we can ask for a 4th or 5th rounder for Gaffney. Lewis was 30 at the time and did not have anywhere near the productivity that Gaffney had last season.

Patriots acquire WR Greg Lewis from Eagles - Reiss' Pieces - Boston.com

Re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan

i like the idea of trading him and possibly picking up a pick, but if there is no interest from him why dont we keep him around for camp and see what happens instead of just dumping him now? whats the advantage of that?

Re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan

Gaffney is still relatively young and can contribute in this league, there's no question about that. I have mixed feelings about letting Moss walk though. That guy is a true Redskin.

39 is the new 21.

But no, the guy's got less than 5 years left. Solid but not superb and due to all the FA's we've brought in, not starting material. Won't be sad to see him go but I do wish him the best.

Tana could move into number 3 on the all time list with 74 catches.

Re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan

If Hankerson continues to show us what he did last year before his injury, Moss continues to be a solid contributor, as well as Garcon on Morgan, I don't think there's room for Gaffney nor Banks. I like Banks a lot, but unless he can show some skills as being a wide receiver, I think his days are numbered.

Banks is our 3rd string QB!

But seriously, is banks just a return specialist? Did he do much actual WR work in college or was his job mostly just returning kicks? He's so damn small for a WR, I couldn't see him being extremely effective unless he had like a 3ft vertical.

Gaffney is about to be traded and Banks didn't make the roster the last two seasons by being a wide receiver. If Banks has a couple of long returns on punts and kickoffs in preseason, expect him to remain.
