Re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan

Moss has been our best receiver for years, but he was never going to be a #1 NFL receiver. He will be used best when lined up in the slot with some guys on the outside who scare people. Garcon and Hankerson/Morgan will allow Shanny to use Moss the way a 5'9" receiver should be used, in the slot creating mismatches. What was once a very weak core has become a deep and talented one, with huge upside. Out with the old Banks, Gaffney etc. in with the new!

When are we going to add Royal back to this thread? J/K LOL

At best he is our 5th best WR. What are you guys crying over Gaffney for? Lets get real here.
Ah. The voice of reason.

Agreed.

A career journeyman steps in and has a decent year in absence of any other legit or healthy WRs on the roster, and all of a sudden he's a guy we can't do without?

Please.

Someone had to go, and it wasnt going to be Hankerson, Morgan, or Garcon. I think Jabar's 2.7 cap figure and the cap penalty handed down from the league did more to make this happen than the twitter incident.

You do when you're concerned about selling Jerseys.

So Grant Paulsen is saying, and I just checked with a couple other people, that Niles Paul is working as a TE this week

He seems a bit lightweight for a TE. Unless he's bulked up in the offseason. Aren't most TEs in the 240s and higher weight range?

I think this makes sense , if Paul can play WR and TE in certian packages it would give us some flexibility with playcalling .

He essentially plays the same position in the offense as Fred Davis (a position that's never on the LOS in a 3 WR set), so that would make some sense.

Paul also played some TE late last season when Paulsen was the no. 1 guy.

And it's not like Niles Paul would ever play in 2 WR, 1 TE, 2 RB personnel. So try not to think of him as the prototype in-line TE. It's just an interior receiver.

This is either genius or incredibly stupid.

Re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan

That's just prototypical tight ends who are 6'3, 6[4, 6'5, and 6'6 who weigh 240-260 pounds these days. Paul could possibly play TE. If he has the strength to block LBs and DEs, then his size shouldn't really matter.

It would be a nice move to place Paul @ TE in some situations to form mismatches.
