New England can have Trey Williams. I'm glad Chris Thompson has shown flashes of being an excellent scat back. He's not as raw as he once was. So far this season he has stayed healthy. Hopefully in another year or two Thompson will be amongst the best receivers coming out of the backfield.

He couldn't stick with either the Skins or Dallas, so what's the big deal?

Also, the Pats play Philly this week, so anything Trey can do to help beat Philly would be a good thing. If anyone can find a play or two to use his speed, it would be Belichick.

When the Pats cut him, perhaps you can get him back.

Watch him flourish in NE, he just might the Dion Lewis antidote.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but since the Redskins had a worse record if we had put in a waiver claim for him we would've gotten him first. If that's the case I'm cool with it. If not, I'm still cool with it.

I feel like smart teams know which GMs have a good eye for talent, and figure that if they're going to take a flyer on somebody, it might as well be on a player who was liked by a GM with a reputation like McCloughan's.

NFL.COM has the 2016 draft order and team neeed. Here is what they have for the skins.

26. Washington Redskins
2015 record: 5-6 (.529)
Top need: Center
Other needs: Wide receiver, cornerback, defensive line, offensive tackle


I do not understand the OT need.

I would pout safety over most of the others in that "other needs" category. If Moses keeps playing like he has, the only need at OT is better depth to deal with injuries.

It was probably written by someone who doesn't follow the team and reads headlines. I doubt Morgan Moses shows up in many stat lines or headlines.

Losing this game changes everything IMO about our path to a division title. We can't win on the road, and often look awful on the road, but in order to get to 8-8 we have to win at least 2 road games out of the 3 remaining and of those 2 are division games.

If the Pats offered up a 1st for Jackson would you do it? I think I would.

We should lock down this thread. No one should be talking first place this or playoffs that until we can win more than 1 game in a row and/or a single road game.

The more I watch the gameplan on offense the more it brings me back to Scot McCloughan's quote before the season regarding 2015 paraphrasing,

we might not win a lot of games in 2015 but teams will know they played us for the next few days

...and it makes me wonder if building an identity is the goal right now above all else. If you look at the way the offense is being called they come off like a Seattle/SF except they can't run the ball so it looks like a hot mess often, however the fact that they insist on still running the ball on most first downs regardless of the fact that it gets stuffed or even goes backwards tells me that Scot McCloughan is still in big picture mode rather than prioritizing the results of this season.

I wonder if DY could line up as a Tight End a few times a game at least for the purpose of blocking? His lead blocking for Morris under Shanahan was pretty stout.

Get him out there line him up, get him involved.

I don't think McClu vision involves sucking at running the ball. I don't think our current run game resembles Seattle or the 49ers at all.

Well what I am saying is that our personnel in 2015 is dictating the running woes moreso than the plan on how we are going to be built.

The running game looked a lot different before Lavauo and the other starter went down. That drastically changed the ability of this line to run block. The offense early in the season was much more run-heavy.

Just because injuries have dictated an immediate deviation doesn't mean the bigger picture which will take 2-3 offseasons to see through, is not still the goal.
