Re: Terrell Pryor Sr.

I don't understand what is it about a 1-year 6 million dollar deal that people call a player a bust. I mean, if the team had given Pryor a multi-year contract with a lot of guaranteed money, then yeah he's a bust.

Financially, Pryor's deal is low risk. The team can opt not to sign him next year (which will most likely happen), and the loss is minimal.

From a football perspective, yeah it sucks that he is not living up to his performance last year. But as I said before, it is made worst by the fact that Reed has been (and to me it still looks like he's) hurt, Crowder has not taken that next step that I feel the team thought he would take. Doctson is coming along, but not enough to help the passing game (I think he'll get there).

No argument from me. It's not like Pryor's deal has set the team back several seasons. He was a hot commodity this offseason that a lot of teams wanted. Maybe he is a flash in the pan or he's just not a proper fit for Wash's offense?

Either way barring a miracle run where he breaks off a hundred plus yards every game, on top of multiple touchdowns I don't see The Redskins resigning him unless it's a really low amount of money.

Re: Terrell Pryor Sr.

Well he’s effectively been benched and his PT was steadily declining, it’s obvious Jay knows he can’t play.

he came out publicly and was smart - not pulling a martevious bryant - and sd he knows coach is coach and he needs to earn his time. He knows he's still learning, we know that too. The guy is a great athlete but he's just not a WR yet.... and whoever takes his place the coaches are seeing they deserve it in practice.. Grant gets playing time and he does make some catches - but I would like to see us getting faster... and maybe not 100% give up on PRYOR UNTIL HE COMES AROUND.

Re: Terrell Pryor Sr.

I would bring back Rashad Ross. We need some speed on special teams and he can be a vertical threat at WR.

Robert Davis is another option that someone previously mentioned.
Might as well see what we got with him.

My preference is Ross since he can help on ST.

Where is Ross right now? Is he playing on another team or is he out of football?

Re: Terrell Pryor Sr.

I listened to Cooley on the Audio Vault and he said he'd bench both Docston and Pryor. He'd bring up Harris and Davis..... wow.

I listened to this segment too. He said that because he was mad at his run blocking (rightfully so, the guy obviously doesn't care, he doesn't even try...) and said he wasn't doing enough in the passing game to afford this attitude.

Kevin strongly disagreed with him and said we couldn't give up on Docston yet.

It's really inexcusable to play football at the NFL level w/out any urgency. The last two weeks I've also seen him block like a bitch and run some shitty routes. On one of his routes on 3rd down he ran a basic out the incorrect way and the ball could have been picked off. I now see why KC doesn't throw him the ball.

Agreed, unacceptable.

And even when he makes a catch he doesn't fight to get extra yards, gets out of bounds as soon as he can. He obviously doesn't love the game.

Re: Terrell Pryor Sr.

Benching Doctson is dumbest fucking thing the Skins could do. What a fucking idiot.

Ryan Grant on the field isn't a good thing...he isn't Garcon. He's not nearly as smart as Garcon and certainly doesn't have the speed or hands. Grant on the field in "occasional" packages I have no problem with...but anything over 50% of O snaps...he brings relatively no threat. Hurts our offense overall.

I agree.
We need to develop Doctson. if he isn't improving, we need to fire his receivers coach (Ike Hilliard). Someone needs to be held accountable for this mess!

It's hard to fault Grant because he runs good routes and has hands but he just isn't going to make a play. I feel like DBs are sitting on his routes waiting for a pick6.

Re: Terrell Pryor Sr.

Captain Chaos has good analyses but he isn't 100%. Doctson needs to be in for as many plays as humanly possible. Reps reps reps. He has the talent, you can see it.

Agreed about coaching.

Docston development isn't satisfying, Crowder is underachieving and Pryor can't catch a ball anymore while last year he was all about big catches in traffic...

Something's not done well...

Cooley looks at film, so my guess there is a reason why he's saying to bench him.
