Exactly, if he can get his head out of his ass, he has shown he can be dominant. I don't think it was arrested 9 times, but 9 times that the police had to intervene/arrest him. But if he can get his act together, a combo of Garcon, Britt, Roberts, Robinson, and Reed would do wonders.

Yes, but more recently he quit on the Titans. It was evident to many NFL observers that his efforts were substandard. I don't know what issues he may have had with the Titans coaching staff but I do know that we don't need somebody who will sulk and loaf because he's unhappy about something.

We all know he has talent but if we sign him I hope that the Skins management will cut him the instant he starts to become a problem.

Who is your choice to add: James jones, Sidney rice or Kenny Britt? I think we do need to add at least 1. I would chose jones.

Jones. He's a very good player who has fewer negatives than the other two.

All signs point to our picking up another receiver, one which is better than Rice and the others, with our first pick in the draft. Such would be Gruden's MO from Cincy.

Sidney Rice or Kenny Britt in that order.

Maybe Jones , I would rather go OL/DB with our 8-9 $ million of spending # . Any word on TE O Daniels or T Penn ?

Owen Daniels would b an epic waste of a roster spot. Hope we get penn, that would be an upgrade.

Agree. Would like to see us draft Xavier Grimble TE USC 6th-FA.

This is a good draft for TEs, there are plenty of TEs better than Grimble. I would use a 3rd or 4th round pick on a good TE...... Nicklas, CJ Fiedorowitz,

It blows my mind that we get Tracy porter and people are talking about taking a WR in the 2nd and TE in the 3-4th. Seems like to me our porous secondary from last season is our most glaring issue. The first couple rounds need to address safety and cornerback IMO

I don't think it's a very deep or good draft for that and we went defense last year so I don't think there going to draft another young safety.

I understand.

However, I'd almost bet my monthly paycheck that a WR will be our first pick, whether we like it or not. Just as his brother is a QB collector, Jay Gruden in Cincy was a receiver collector. The argument that RGIII really could use another elite weapon will win the day.

I personally think it is a good argument - in today's NFL, the team with the most weapons often wins. But I also would have signed a good FA safety.

Hopefully we will nab a FS like Terrence Brooks in the third.

I am not under the illusion Porter is a good CB, however they now have 2 veteran CBs, and 2 young ones (Amerson + Crawford)... possibly Minnifield. Also the CB depth in this draft is questionable. Who would you take in the 2nd ?

I would not pick a WR with the 2nd round pick, if a great player slips to the second round I take him... otherwise trade down, and add picks . They still need help everywhere.

Prediction- we sign Penn and Britt and let Owens walk. Per Cooley Owens is absolutely horrible in blocking. Hopefully a decent safety gets cut and we pick him up also.
