Honestly, I don't know if I can make a reasonable argument for bringing Stallworth or even Moss back. You head into next year with Jabar Gaffney as the clear go-to receiver and Leonard Hankerson as the clear number two. I mean, those two are pretty much unchallenged at this point.

Then you have your depth guys in Armstrong, Banks, and someone who we'll pick in the 2012 draft, with Aldrick Robinson challenging for one of those spots.

What's left? The slot guy. So I would think the Redskins want that to be Niles Paul. It's possible, maybe even likely, that the Redskins would keep Santana Moss in 2012 and release Paul, but that still doesn't leave an obvious spot for Stallworth, unless there's no draft or acquisition at the position.

^ wow forgot about Armstrong, I guess that says it all about him.

Solid, play making free agent at WR is why you get rid of Stallworth.

I had Paul listed as: "Paul/late draft pic" meaning Paul could be replaced if we get someone in this years draft who could take Paul's spot. Unlikely, but possible. But I think Paul sticks next year.

I think it's either Paul or Moss as the no. 3 next year. Moss is clearly and obviously better right now, but it will be interesting to see how much they think of Niles Paul.

Would you be comfortable with Hankerson, Moss, Gaffney as your top 3 next year?

Very.

I would just wish that if they believe in these young guys (like Paul), they'd move a vet out of the way to have him play. Paul hasn't exactly ran with the opportunity just yet, but if he shows up in practice as much as the coaches say, then he should be a big part of next year's plans.

If not, then I'd be fine with Gaffney/Hankerson/Moss while we draft and develop Gaffney's replacement.

So if you're comfortable with that as your top 3 then what's the harm in having Stallworth in there as part of your next 3?

Anyhow, I didn't mean to make this only about Stallworth

I let Golston and Rocky walk

I hold on to Carriker

Ditto for Montgomery

Really not sure about Hightower. Wish there sign and trades like in the NBA

I wouldnt. I dont think Shanny or Kyle would be either. Moss and Gaffney deliever with the same production and certainly have value in this system. Hankerson still needs to develop and show what he has coming off a bad injury(we are about to learn alot about Hankerson on how he responds). Stallworth would fit with Moss and Gaffney from a production standpoint, but has not delievered on the field consistently enough to do so.

Shanny wants playmakers on offense and WR will be at the top of the list in the offseason.

[That Guy]

vet min! seriously though, no one on that list is going to be making any kind of money, so, sure, if they're cheap, why not.

we need the keep the OL guys simply because we didn't have enough to start this season and ended up fishing in the post deadline FA pool... which is never good.

[MTK]

This offense needs more playmakers. I think our WRs are solid but unspectacular. Maybe Hankerson or Paul can be that type of guy eventually, but I feel like we need to make a move to bring in a guy that really scares a D.

To me it all comes down to who's getting them the ball. It's proven that teams can win with average wr's if you have a stud QB. These guys that we currently have are not playmakers but they're getting open. For the most part they've been open all year long. I bring back this group, let them compete and see how it shakes out. And Jabar Gaffney has just been rock solid, boy was I wrong about him. But I hope they don't go out and overpay for someone like Dwayne Bowe or Marcus Colston. Improve the line and draft a legit QB and we can win with this group of wr's.

Yeah, that would be a pretty poor decision.

We should add through the draft, although there's no reason to spend a first round pick at the receiver position.

I don't think we should spend any picks on wr's.

[Alvin Walton]

If Hankerson is healthy next spring then I agree we should not spend picks on any more WRs.
Free agency may be another thing though.

I think we need to go after Bowe I've been saying it since last year, people say he's a bit of a punk but he makes plays and produces w any QB. I think Moss is still a solid 2 or 3, AA won't make it IMO and Gaffney is a 2 at best so we need a true 1.. Is Hank the guy? Who knows but having a bad injury your rookie year doesn't look good

[SmootSmack]

Like the guy I told you about Matty?
