Additions of WRs Begins to Make Sense
There was plenty of criticism thrown the Redskins way when they brought in veteran receivers Jabar Gaffney and Donte Stallworth this offseason.Washington went down the aging receiver road before in 2010 when they kept the aging Joey Galloway and Roydell Williams on the final roster. The experiment backfired in a major way as the pair combined for 20 catches in 26 games. Yet that...

The Washington Redskins have agreed to terms with rookie wide receivers Niles Paul and Aldrick Robinson and also have reportedly cut seldom-used veteran wideout Roydell Williams.
The terms of Paul and Robinson’s contracts were not immediately available because the paperwork still was being finalized. But sources familiar with the situation said that both players had agreements...

The Washington Redskins Are Now Incredibly Deep At Wide Receiver
No, they didn’t break the bank and go after a guy like Rice, Holmes, or Edwards, but heading into training camp, the Redskins now have a lot of wide receivers. And I mean a lot.
With the signings of Santana Moss and Donte Stallworth, and the recent trade with the Denver Broncos (Jeremy Jarmon) for Jabar Gaffney, the Redskins now have 13 wide receivers heading into the 2011...

Tandler: “Julio Jones would bring a little glitter to the offense”
Better than your breakfast
Friday morning bites:
Rich Tandler, of CSN Washington, discusses whether Julio Jones would be considered a “luxury” pick for the Washington Redskins.
“When you have real needs like they do, a receiver is a luxury. But Julio Jones … would bring a little glitter to the offense. You could make a case for him.”
So, which is...

Top 25 Players: #1
Looking back at the Mack Brown orchestrated renaissance of mid-80s Tulane football, I am struck at how some things never change. He rebuilt Texas the exact same way- an emphasis on mobile, athletic quarterbacks and oodles of receiving talent. I’ve worn out the keyboard here explaining just how much harder it was for Tulane to win in that Brown era, how much broader the talent base...

Coin toss: Redskins wide receivers--what's the plan?
We asked earlier how much Santana Moss is worth for next season. PAskinsfan17 responds: 3 yrs 5 million + some incentives. He's the only real receiver we got. Let's face facts. Our Wrs are terrible. We can resign Moss, Get a big FA like Braylon Edwards, and still have room for Malcolm Kelly, Anthony Armstrong, and Terrence Austin. We'd just be cutting Roydell Williams...

Grading the Redskins 2010 Draft
With the regular season over we’ve had a chance to look at what the Redskins got in the 2010 Draft, assess the contributions of each player or pick and compare it to what the Redskins could have gotten if they had made a different decision.
A major complaint I’ve made about Redskins Head Coach Mike Shanahan this year has been his stubborn unwillingness to play his young...

Quick Hitters: Cowboys 33 Redskins 30
01. Legendary Redskins Hall of Game QB Sonny Jurgensen said this about benched QB Donovan McNabb on the ESPN 980 radio pregame show:
“He wasn’t performing, and at practice, he’d never practice hard, and I think that had some bearing on it also. Because Shanahan’s a stickler for practice, working hard in practice so that you carry that over into the game. And...

Keep or Discard: Building the 2011 offense
Not all of you can stay
With 13 regular season games in the books and every player on the Redskins roster [hopefully] auditioning to be around next season, I thought it would be a good time to take a long look at the roster as it stands now [including practice squad and injured reserve players] and try to decide which ones should be kept around and which ones should be discarded...

The Touchdown Was Not Scored On Fifth Down
There can sometimes be a weird disconnect between what people in the pressbox notice and what people watching at home notice. The TV broadcast will highlight something -- say, a shouting match on the sidelines, or a random player standing isolated by himself while his position group appears to have a meeting nearby -- that can go entirely unnoticed by the assembled media.

Quick Hitters: Giants 31 Redskins 7
01. After this game and into the week we’re going to hear lots of quotes from Redskins players and coaches, as well as happy-talk aficionado Larry Michaels about how the Redskins aren’t playing up to their potential. About how they need to “pick it up” and “turn it up a notch” and how the playoffs are not out of the question. Pay no attention...

Redskins Roundup: Get young or die!
In today’s MUST READ, Dan Daly of TBD orders Redskins management to tear the roster down and rebuild it, focusing on youth.
Which three players on the Redskins’ 53-man roster – or, if you prefer, their 61-man roster – excite you the most? (I wouldn’t be surprised if they all had something in common.)
The names I’ve scribbled down are Brian Orakpo, Trent Williams...

Redskins and Vikings tied at 7
First Quarter The Redskins opened the game with perhaps their best drive of the season. Donovan McNabb connected on all eight of his passes for 84 yards, five different receivers caught passes, the Redskins converted all four of their third down attempts and the offense even showed a new wrinkle: Brandon Banks carrying out of the Wildcat formation. The Redskins had big plays on a...

Redskins vs. Vikings - First Quarter Reactions
For one drive, the Redskins were darned near perfect. Donovan McNabb went 8-for-8 for 84 yards and 1 touchdown. The Redskins were 4-for-4 on third down. Chris Cooley, Anthony Armstrong, and Roydell Williams all contributed impressive athletic plays. Brandon Banks even took a couple of direct snaps in the Wildcat formation. It was like watching someone play Madden on Rookie level...

This should have been done a long time ago. The Redskins waived WR Joey Galloway and promoted WR Terrance Austin from the practice squad to fill the position that Galloway occupied. Redskins Nation, recognizing how little Galloway was producing, has been calling for this move to be made for awhile now. Austin was drafted in the 7th round of the draft and was put on the practice...

Injuries Forcing the Redskins to Start the Slow Climb Towards Youth
Yeah, he's a keeper (Chris McGrath/Getty Images)
After seeing the ridiculous amounts of Redskins falling by the wayside this past Sunday against the Titans, I wondered 'Why us?'. Perhaps karma finally caught up to the Redskins for knocking out an equally ridiculous amount of the opposing team's star players. Or perhaps the Redskins were tired from the short week...

This team remains one of the hardest Redskin teams to get a feel for that I can ever recall. How does a team beat the likes of Philly, Tennessee, Chicago, Green Bay and Dallas while losing to Philly, St Louis, Detroit and Houston? The only game that really went per plan would be the Indy loss. We are 5-5 and still definitely alive for a post season berth, but the team inspires...

Coaches not pleased with Joey Galloway's play Monday
No. 3 wide receiver Joey Galloway, who has contributed little this season, was benched in the second half of Monday night's 59-28 blowout loss to Philadelphia. Roydell Williams replaced Galloway in multiple-receiver sets during the second half after Galloway did a poor job while running a route late in the second and quarterback Donovan McNabb's pass was intercepted. On Monday...
