Re: Q&A With: Greg Cosell

I was going to post excerpts from this as well.. For those that don't follow him or read his stuff, Keim is probably the best on the Redskins beat.. Tells it like it is but no JLC-type agenda or Johnny Sunshine treatment either.

Cosell made a few really good points about the need for a 'true #1 WR' with the way offenses are being played now. With Hankerson, Garcon, Morgan, Moss (eh), Paul/Robinson/2012 draftee plus Davis we should have adequate options in the passing game. The YAC that Gaffney, Moss, Stallworth, etc. left on the field should be eaten up by Garcon and to a lesser extent Morgan. Hankerson's YAC will be interesting to see because he's a little thin so battling for yards may be a challenge and didn't show much propensity to get a lot of YAC on his catches across the middle last year.

I was watching some of our games again recently and it was pretty obvious how much the play calling/production was limited by our QB. There were plays to be made that Grossman or Beck simply couldn't make. Underthrown deep balls, yards on the boot that weren't picked up, areas on the field that Rex/Beck didn't have the arm strength to make the throws. The more I see and read about RGIII and our offense, the more I feel like we are going to be in for something really special the next few years.
