If anything, Moses is failing us by not being ready nearly halfway into his rookie season as a 'high' draft pick.
I really wonder about Chris Forester as a line coach. He hasn't developed anyone, our line was an issue when he got here and still is to this day. After 5 years, I don't expect him to start being a better coach.

To your point, I think fans forget guys like Jacoby (UDFA), Schlereth (12th round), McKenzie (11th round) were not high draft picks. With the exception of 1981, the Redskins did not invest much in high draft picks for the OL during Gibbs 1.0. And when they did it was often disastrous (Andre Collins). So yeah maybe we need to look at who's coaching these guys
