Offseason Roster Moves Thread

Two players I think Redskins should look at when it's time to sign free agent players - Gus Edwards and Byron Jones.

I'm not sure about Eric Ebron.. He didn't do much at Lions, even with Stafford throwing the ball. It is possible Eric was simply a bad fit for Lions offense since he played well with Colts.

Kendall Fuller should be FA, bring him back

You can agree on our rookies on these list, I would add Sims, Harmon and Martin. Haskins gets honorable for his last 3 games.

Rookie class numbers

Cole Holcomb second in total tackle by a rookie this year, just 4 tackles behind the LB Bush in Pittsburgh. He forced 3 fumbles...not bad.

Rookie Sack leaders, Sweat ended up with 7 sacks...5th in the league ( not a bad rookie class) half sack behind Brian Burns. Had a couple forced fumbles as well.

Scary Terry...second in recs, 1 behind the leader with 59. Second in yards 919. Lead rookies most first down catches.

Rookies, pretty fuckin good. Wes Martin and Haskins had their moments as well.

Gridiron, all 3 of these guys have been in my peripheral in early free agency looks.

A little gripe with Gus Edwards...I don’t know how valuable he can be in the passing game. Maybe system related, but he is a great runner, lotta broken tackles. Imo, RB these days have to catch the ball...it opens up the offense when they do and provides another option for your QB.

Eric Ebron is good...great size and blocks well in the run game. The reason he excelled in Indy vs Detroit in passing offense was simply the Colts and frank reich feature their TEs in that scheme. Ebron would be a solid choice imo and he is hitting his prime.

If we truly go press man coverage with our corners (which Dunbar can) we need someone else too on the other which Norman couldn’t be he lost a step and was a better zone scheme...enter Byron Jones who has proven to do it in Dallas. I want to see he’s contract demand, but I like him a lot in that defense.

Good point on Edwards's inability to catch balls (so far). I'm thinking that we need to find a reliable RB who can run through people. We have Guice and Love who can catch and run. I don't know if we will bring Thompson back, but if so then that would be 3 RBs who can catch the ball. With that on mind along with all three RBs' injury history, I want Redskins to have a reliable RB. I also like Jordan Howard if Edwards signs somewhere else.

Your argument for Ebron is valid and I have read same argument somewhere else when I read about Ebron signing with Colts. Although I found this to be odd when we factor in the fact that Lions used their 1st round pick to draft Ebron, why would they do that if they knew they don't utilize TE much. But Ebron has shown that he can play and the only logical explanation I could think of is your point, Lions simply didn't utilize him well.
