Not to mention him dropping balls, and basically taking snaps away from everybody's favorite player, Brandon Lloyd.

It takes a lot of optimism to assume that both rookie WR's will play Moss and ARE out of a job. Even if, somehow, both turn out to be starting-caliber, that leaves room for a couple of small, fast, and smart WR's. Recall Monk/Clark/Sanders.

However, as almost everyone in Hogsnet-land has mentioned, it would be a giant stroke of luck to get two big capable WR's in the same draft. Hasn't happened, in my memory, with the Redskins.

The only time they had a pair of big, fast, WR's was when George Allen offended the "experts" by picking up Roy Jefferson from the Steelers. "You're giving up the future!" screamed Those Who Know. Allen aded Jefferson to Charley Taylor, who had been a star for six or seven seasons already.

Two starting WR's at once? Whether big guys or small guys? Look up the rosters. Closest is the season in the mid-80s when they picked up Clark and Sanders...but that was a fluke, and they complemented (attention FIOS: note correct use of "complemented"!!) Art Monk, member of the Hall of Fame.

(Not meaning to shout the name, but Art Monk deserves always to be in bold-face. For so many reasons...)

IS SANTANA A BONIFIED #1 RECIEVER IT SEEMS 2 ME THAT HIM OR ANY OF THE RECIEVERS CAN GET OPEN WHEN NEEDED BUT CAMBELL GETS THE BLAME 4 EVERYTHING I FEEL CAMB. BITES HIS TOUNGE IN INTERVIEWS AND IN PRACTICE NOT TO CALL THE GUYS OUT JUST THINK BACK 2 BEFORE GIBBS PULLED BRUNELL BETTS WAS THE TEAMS LEADING RECIEVER AND THE RECIEVERS DIDNT HAVE ANY TD'S THINK ABOUT IT

What????

English, please.
