Today, DC Pro Sports Report continues its analysis of each position on the Redskins in preparation for the start of training camp later this month. We'll analyze each position and predict who will be on the roster at the end of preseason and who will not. We'll also figure out who will be starting and what everyone's roles will be. We began our training camp battles analysis with quarterbacks and then covered tailbacks. Then we went over the fullback position. Last Friday, we covered the tight end position. Now, we turn to wide receivers.

On the roster now: Keith Eloi, Marques Hagans, Malcolm Kelly, Marko Mitchell, Santana Moss, Antwaan Randle El, Trent Shelton, Devin Thomas, Roydell Williams

DT will step up, Kelly will be seen and is going to be a Red zone touch down maker. Marko Mitchell will play.

I'm predicting Thomas lines up as the #2 day one of camp and never looks back.

This would be huge for our O

yes, it would.

The position battle is essentially for the 5th WR after Moss, ARE, DT, and Kelly. I'm partial to Marko, but I'd like to see all of them line up and show us what they've got...

As far as DT -- I'm hopeful. Anything Kelly gives us is icing on the cake.

Would it not be incredible for some of the kids we drafted last year who did not contribute to step to the plate? I.......believe we will turn some heads this year.....and it has NOTHING to do with my ....status of fanatic

After seeing Keith Eloi jump out of the pool backwards and seeing what a great athlete he is, I'm going to stick my neck out and predict that he will be the surprise player of the summer.

Hopefully you are right on all of these.

Kelly will beat out Thomas for the #2

I think this will happen as well.

For what it's worth, the no. 3 WR has a really strong projection in our offense this season in Football Outsiders Almanac. I'm just not convinced that DT will be that guy, although it looks like he's getting first shot (damn you draft position!).

Malcolm Kelly is straight gangsta! Standing on the street corner, pouring out some Shirley Temple for his fallen homeys

If Kelly does beat Thomas out for #2 spot, then Zorn definitely would need to tune up his creativity to get Kelly, Thomas and Moss on the field same time.. Excluding the fact that Fred Davis is in picture, as well..

Almost a month later I think it's starting to look like Kelly could be moving ahead of Thomas on the depth chart and Mitchell looks good for the #5.
