I will pretty stunned if we show any interest at all. Likewise I will be pretty stunned if he doesn't go to the Dolphins...or maybe the Cowboys

Is there a reason why the Skins wouldn't be interested? Preserving draft picks?

Not that I am a big proponent of Josh Gordon, because I'm not, but I do not see how exactly the Skins are set at WR. The way I see it is while we have quantity, there is not much quality. Moss is competing for a job, Garcon hasn't had a 1,000 yard season in his career (even with Peyton throwing to him), and while I love VA Tech Josh Morgan hasn't done much of anything in the NFL.

Somehow the consensus is that we are set. Sure we have bodies in there, but this squad reminds me of Moss, Lloyd, and Randel El. The Skins thought that they were set then as well. It would be nice if they suprise me, but right now I do not see much there.

Thats what I was thinking as a worst case..

I don't know the specific reason.

So what do you suggest they do?....(this is where Goat chimes in with Plaxico)

Goat will probably advocate trading a 2nd for Randy Moss, or trading a 3rd for Ochocinco.

Realistically there is nothing that they can do until next offseason. There needs to be a long term solution to the problem. Anything that they can do between now and then would be a band-aid. The WR corps needs minor surgery.

I am content with the draft and free agency this past offseason. We have needed a QB for a while and a WR for almost as long. I feel that they are addressing the need in the correct order.

To answer your question there is nothing they can do except continue what they are doing. My only point in the previous post is that I wouldn't exactly call us set. We are as set as we can be without doing something stupid. The position still needs to be addressed just not now.

I don't think anyone would deny that we have some question marks at WR heading into camp. But there's definitely potential there to have a pretty solid group.

Is Gordon a better prospect than Hankerson was/is?

The potential is there every season, but it never pans out. Best case scenario is Moss maintains his level of production, Garcon draws the double team and Morgan gets a bone every once in a while. It is a good thng that we have good TE's.
