We are reportedly in competition with Cleveland for Roberts.

If you want to trust ESPN who is poaching info from the tabloid Bleacher Report...Britt, Hawkins and Sproles are being targeted.

[quote]If the Redskins upgrade at receiver, it might take a reclamation project to help them do so. According to multiple sources, the Redskins are interested in Tennessee receiver Kenny Britt, whose career to date has been marked by an inability to maximize his so-called potential.

A team source also said the Redskins are interested in restricted free agent receiver Andrew Hawkins. They also could be in on free agent running back Darren Sproles, according to Bleacher Report's Mike Freeman.

Love Andre Roberts here. Legit slot WR.

Do you think this will be the end for Santana Moss?

LOVE this signing but I think we still need another proven WR.

Will probably be Hawkins for his return game, but I wonder if we can still afford someone like Emmanuel Sanders as a #3 WR and still fill our other holes on D and the O-line?

I'm just not confident in Hankerson or Robinson.

Re: Redskins Free Agents Signings Thread
 

There's no tampering, it's ok to reach deals in principle, just nothing official until 4pm.

It was a joke and yes, as long as we only spoke to his agents and not the player personally, we're fine.


Bruce knows what he's doing.


But, if the league wanted to get picky and nail someone with a false charge, it would be us!

Wikipedia already says he's a Redskin

Re: Redskins Free Agents Signings Thread
 

need the numbers, but he's probably the best guy for what we wanted to do.

Re: Redskins Free Agents Signings Thread
 

Just announced Perry Riley has agreed to a deal...




Btw I'm new here. Can't wait to get acquainted.

Re: Redskins Free Agents Signings Thread
 

It was Mikejones twitter that just reported the Riley deal 15 seconds ago, but I canot post links yet bc im a forum noob here.

My kind of signing! He's a talented young player with plenty of upside. I'd bet that we got him at a reasonable cap number, too. Nice job Skins FO!

Re: Redskins Free Agents Signings Thread
 

I like the Andre Roberts acquisition as a long-term move. Can get up to four quality years out of him. There are a couple of hold backs:

-His route tree is basically redundant with Garcons, based on his best alignments and route selection.

-Although he's been a good receiver each of the last two years, he's a sub 7.0 YPT guy for his career. Basically, he's going to help move the chains -- but doesn't up the quick scoring options in the offense.

He was used as a deep receiver much more often in Arians' scheme this year, so at least he featured that new skill.

Overall, versatile and valuable signing. But he's a poor man's no. 2/rich man's no.3.

How can I convince you guys that you would [U]hate[/U] Sanders in B&G? He is a [U]choke artist[/U], I tell you! Sanders is as likely to drop a TD or 3rd down pass as he is to catch it. He would be the new 50/50.

Besides, he would be too expensive. He's going to be overpaid by some unfortunate team with a misguided FO.

I think you'll be very happy with Roberts when we sign or draft a true #2 receiver. I'm betting that we added him as a "rich man's no. 3". But I could be wrong about that.

Re: Redskins Free Agents Signings Thread
 

At the moment, 1) Garcon 2) Hankerson 3) Roberts 4) Aldrick. But there's not a whole lot of difference between 1/2/3.

You have a regression year from Garcon coming and Hankerson in a contract year, and those situations will sort themselves out.

A year from now, I'll bet Roberts will have a very defined role, and we'll have a good idea of his value going forward.

Re: Redskins Free Agents Signings Thread
 

4/$16 for Roberts with $8 mil guaranteed after 3/$13 for Riley. Guess we're paying the losers tax this year.

Andre Roberts' similarity score based on his best season is Pierre Garcon with the Colts:

dang tripp, you think garcon is almost interchangeable w Hank or roberts?

usually when i disagree with your opinion, i give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you know more than I do but this opinion (if i stated it right) is hard for me to understand.

i thought garcon was a beast when it came to catching the ball in close quarters with pretty steady hands .. i cant speak to his ability to get open or run the route tree bc i just cant follow the NFL like i used to (and im a dummy) but the old eyeball test told me garcon was the best receiver we have had since Coles in terms of making tough catches in traffic, production etc... basically being a gamer.
