Redskins Deny Bryant Johnson Visit Scheduled

I think your right. A lot of people are hyping whoever (Johnson or Hacket) the Skins bring in at Reciever will be the annointed as the savior of our passing attack.

So in review, I was wrong about DeWayne Robertson and Chad Johnson, and my dreams of Jason Taylor in Maroon and Black seem to be fading into oblivion, but I still stand by my prediction that if the Redskins stay at 21 they will draft Devin Thomas.

Man I'm becoming the Warpath's version of PFT :(

Devin Thomas is definitely an option, but I see us taking either a DE or CB on the first WR in the second and then DT in the 3rd.

Dont ever disrespect yourself like thathttp://www.thewarpath.net/images/icons/icon7.gif

If Bryant Johnson does not cost us much i say do it, our 1st rd pick has to go for DL player or be traded for more picks in later rounds

I don't want Hackett or Johnson. They both seem like they will be busts to me.

Johnson more than Hackett to me

Dwayne Bowe was drafted by the Chiefs with the 23rd pick in the draft last year and Anthony Gonzalez was choosen 32 overall. I think the crop of WR's this year could leave the skins with an impact player like that next year.

Question: Would you rather potentially have 2008's version of Bowe or (Hackett/Johnson) as your # 2 possesion WR?

What kills me is we drafted 2 WR in the 2001 Draft above and we missed out on maybe the best WR class ever.

By my count, just 2 great wideouts came out of that draft (Chad Johnson and Steve Smith). There were a fair number of WR busts in that draft too though (e.g., Freddie Mitchell).

I remember watching a Cardinals Pre-Season game last season where B. Johnson looked like a gem, a true athlete. Given it was a pre-season game, but I thought to myself that this guy will be good one day. Talking to my friends who are huge 49er fans, they say that everytime Arizona plays them B. Johnson lights it up. He runs good routes, has good hands, and is a big presence in the redzone. I don't know if he will solve our problems, but his potential is still very high. He didn't have the best stats in Arizona, but look who was throwing him the ball, Lienart and Washed up Warner. Pair him up with a good QB and I think good things will happen. Definetly an upgrade over Caldwell in my opinion.

You can make an argument for Leinart but my BOY Warner was one of the better QB's in the league last year. Eugene ranked 10th in passer rating this past year.

Anyway glad to here hes a weapon in the Red zone. If anything it always seems like we struggle getting touchdowns in the Red Zone. Hopefully Johnson can cause defenses to split coverage between Cooley and Johnson when the Skins' get inside the 20. Add a Guard that can start right away through the draft (say Brandon Albert?) and we'll be good to go.

In my mind Johnson has a little more upside. He is stuck behind 2 pro bowlers in Arizona. I wouldn't mind Johnson, but I would still rather try and get a trade for a true #1 WR.
See, I think Santana Moss is a number 1. I think the Redskins just need a big possesion reciever, and from what I see, Johnson has a lot of upside.
