Hahaha....that might still be asking for too much!

Heres a good question: Who would you rather have on your team right now? Rod Gardner? or Freddie Mitchell?


I'd have to go w/ Gardner I guess. But if I was given a third choice, I'd take it.

That's a tough question to answer!

If I had to choose either one....I would still pick neither!

I'd call Chris Doering up. I'm sure someone has his number.

It's a tricky question. Gardner will need to have realistic expectations for a new contract, and he needs a clean break from this team. He can't play his way into the #1 receiver role here - the guy opposite him has a messed-up toe and caught nearly twice the balls he did.

Gardner is better than Mitchell. That shows how bad Mitchell is. He had like 20 catches this year. They are both 1st round busts.

McCants appears to be better than both of them when he plays, but he obviously does some things that Gibbs and company do not like. Maybe after he is gone we will find out what the deal was.

hes not that much of a bad receiver he jst like u guys said is inconsistent i agree wit malcomconnection give him another chance because like celts said on one hand he makes amazing plays ill take my chances with the amazing plays and give him another shot....i definitley agree with malcomconnection

[jordanz301]

i agree wit malcom we should give him another shot

[TheMalcolmConnection]

I don't know. I'm being so goddamn Kerry-ish on this subject. I really don't know how to feel. I would say about 60% of me wants to keep the same team, upgrade the line and just have some continuity. The thing that pisses me off about Gardner is that I forgot he is ASKING to be traded. Now THAT is not something a team player does.

[skinsguy]

Yes Gardner is asking for the trade and really, what exactly are we losing if we lose Gardner? A receiver that has not been consistant for us! Sure, he has made some nice catches, but I would rather have a receiver that drops the acrobatic passes but catches 80% of the passes thrown his way rather than one that catches the acrobatic catches but drops at least 60% of his passes.

We need three receivers that can step up and be the man! I think Rod would thrive more in an offense that passes the ball 2:1 verse the run.

[TheMalcolmConnection]

Yup, I would definitely agree with the assessment of needing a guy who makes the easy catch, because the easy catch is really all a receiver SHOULD have to make anyway. It's Ramsey's job to make that happen. Granted, that's only in a perfect world, but that's how it should be.

I'm just glad Gardner won't be wearing a Redskin uniform next year....he was a definite UNDERACHIEVER..............His lack of effort, dropped passes.............

[skinsfan0201]

2/3rds, 1/2, 9/10ths, if everyone had that attitude no one would get very far in life.....
