6'4" 210 lbs. With him and Pryor added, anyone doubt the team is desperate to fix those red zone issues?

Yea that was my first thought...add Doctson to that and we have some size at WR!

[riggofan]

Was reading somewhere today that this might spell trouble for Ryan Grant hanging on.

[SKIN4LIFE]

Good, because I keep questioning why he is on the team.
You can't really assess Quick with the Rams because he never had a good QB to throw to him and he was in Fisher's offensive scheme. I like the signing and it only has upside. We are not dependent on him at this point.

Really hope these WR signings pan out. Timing between QB and WRs is absolutely crucial

and Garçon-DS Jackson had it down to the millisecond last season with Cousins.

Hopefully they adjust quickly to the new system and Jamison Crowder delivers another standout season.

Otherwise we're in for a long season seeing that we have a mediocre running attack.

let's hypothetically have Cousins as QB and we draft a really good RB with the #17 pick - do you really expect the offense to be good/great?

this isn't just about plug and play here - building a team takes time - this franchise is back on the 'wait till next season' deal ...

it's kind of like going into a bar (like Matty's Sail Loft in Marblehead, MA) and seeing the sign - FREE BEER - tomorrow!

[El Mexican]

You're right. That's why I said "I hope" the WR can adapt.

Right now, realistically, I don't have high expectations for next season.

[SKIN4LIFE]

So, if our two new receivers have big years, we lose because they both will be free agents and we will lose them like Garcon and Jackson. If they stink it up we will let them walk and again we have no receivers. Oh, and Cousins will likely be gone. How can we win in this scenario. We have players on one year contracts and we are more than a year away.

[FanofallthatisGibbs]

I am a big fan of this signing depending on the terms of the contract. Tremendous potential, especially in the redzone, but the big question is drops. I believe I read somewhere that he was 6th worst in the NFL in drops last year, catching just a little over half the balls targeted to him. I know Garcon and company bailed Kirk Cousins out quite a bit on slightly off-target throws. They will definitely need to work on that. I would think Brian would be highly motivated in a new offense that is far more pass-heavy than what he experienced on Jeff Fischer's team.

Garcon and Jackson were midget receivers who both were terrible in the red zone due to size.
Pryor, Quick, Reed, Doctson and Davis all have size and physicality. Reed when healthy is actually very good in the red zone.

Reed is a match up nightmare defenses will need to have a safety help out.
Pryor is another mismatch for most corners.
That will leave a lot of room for Crowder and Doctson.

The size and physicality of both Reed and Pryor will lead to broken tackles. Which also leads to more TDS.
Jackson and Garcon had yards and receptions but not TDS.

Add a running game to all this and we may have a prolific offense?

My main point is.
If Kirk and this offense have a good year. I think they'll be better this year. Then they should be in the playoffs.

Why would Kirk leaves if he has a playoff run?
Why wouldn't Snyder pay him?

It's just another prove it year. Snyder was willing to pay RG3 after one year in the playoffs.
Winning cures all. I guarantee if we win a playoff game. Kirk would want to stay and Snyder will pay up a big contract.

What are you talking about? The offense is already good. It was the #3 ranked offense in the league last year, and they managed that while being HORRIFIC in the red zone. Yeah I do really expect the offense to continue to be good, and I don't expect us to draft a RB at #17.

I agree. I actually expect the Skins to see if the prices come down on Peterson or Charles. They already have three backs they haven't given up on yet in Kelley, Brown, and a presumably healthy Marshall.

Yeah I hope they improve the running game. But I'm really hoping the size they've added at WR helps them in the red zone.

Still think the biggest question mark on offense this season is how much will we miss DJax? I believe they can replace Garcon's production with Pryor, but its unclear to me how much Jackson helped with his deep threat and ability to stretch the field. Does that fall on Crowder now?

I expect the Skins to draft a huge, hulking left guard like Scherff and to cut Lauvao. He's costing them $5 million against the cap. That should also aid the running game.

Wouldn't hear any complaints from me. Always the possibility that Kouandjio is ready to step in this year too. Third year for him, yeah?

Yes, but I keep thinking to myself that if Kouandjio was ready to go he would have been starting by now. Too bad Nsekhe won't play guard. We know Williams isn't down with the idea of playing guard. But the two of them together were pretty damned dominant.

Well, fourth round pick in 2015, and he did start two games (both Ws) last year. He's definitely the guy I'd like to see starting there, but gotta go win the job.

I think you have it backwards... Crowder fills Garçons shoes with great hands and YAC... DJAX is on the wrong side of 30, and Pryor is bigger... younger... AND ran a 4.32 at the combine. His official time was 4.38 to jax 4.35= Pryor takes the top of the D as good or better then Jax! Bigger bubble to throw to, and MUCH more physical! Had ALWAYS layer down and shied away from contact.

I've already made it clear how up I am on this kid, the sky is the limit! Adding Quick just makes his job easier, and our options are all MUCH better then anticipated, expecting to lose Garçon and Jax this off-season.

I dare say, we've gotten younger, faster, bigger, cheaper, AND better!

Hail the F ya!

Sign Blunt or Lynch and the D can do whatever it wants, we will score at will!! Lol OK, maybe that's to far... maybe?

[FanofallthatisGibbs]

Younger, bigger, cheaper? Yes.

Faster, better? The jury is out on this one.

Interesting. Hard to imagine Pryor taking on that deep threat DJax role, just because they're so different physically. Either way I really like him. With the numbers he put up on a terrible Browns team, I like his chances of doing well with Cousins and Gruden.

Less concerned about Pryor filling the role of deep threat than about Doctson filling the role of 1st down target. Garcon always knew exactly where to go, when to be there, and when to look for the ball. That's not something that can be developed in one off-season, even if Doctson is "100", as he tweeted earlier. Crowder is a weapon but not in that role. You need a guy big enough to get to the marker and use his body to shield the defender.

Gruden came out with high praise for Rob Kelley so it seems they might roll with him again and try to upgrade the left guard. I'm a huge fan of Kelley, as most know from my posting how he would make the team when they signed him as a UFA but I'd like them to sign a veteran back from whom he can learn, like a Peterson or a Charles. The more they can improve the running game the less pressure there is on the receivers to have another =/-5,000 yards of passing offense.

Really? He was that guy in a terrible Browns offence, with a Merry go round of bad qbs!

56/ 1009/17.9/4tds/ 40+yards 5 Djax, 10th season
77/1007/13.1/4tds/ 40+yards 4 Pryor, first as wr

He killed it in preseason with RGiii too...

It'll come down to work ethic... it's a gamble and I hope he puts in 110%; but there's no way to know that aspect until it happens, or not.

I believe you. Just meant it was surprising to me to hear that "because they're so different physically". If Pryor can still provide that deep threat, that's awesome.

Seeing posts like this are what makes me read responses so I don't waste my time repeating someone else. This I think would be the exact thing I would say, exact down to the punctuation.

On another note, fantasy football just got even more exciting as a Redskin fan because we now have multiple options to have on our fantasy teams.
