I guess he's expensive for depth, but I think he's a better WR than Josh Morgan. I'm probably in the minority there, but I would like to keep him for depth. I can see Morgan not panning out. Gaffney was productive in the system and could provide some veteran leadership to the new guys coming in. I'd like to keep him around.
If he was, we wouldn't have made the move for Morgan.

Totally get that.
But if we sign Royal, I just don't see where he fits in. He's not worth keeping around as your 4th or 5th guy.
Is it unthinkable to cut Moss and have Royal play out of the slot? Cutting Moss before June 1st would save us $1.3M, after June 1st, $2.83....

I could totally see cutting Moss & Gaffney. Neither of these guys are the future here anyway.

Our need for Jabar Gaffney's services is dependent on whether or not Morgan can do what Gaffney does (plus extra, obviously).

I dont think cutting Moss saves us anything, now. But If he gets cut now, he will save us 6 million next year

I agree, I don't see Moss here unless there's a training camp injury prior to pre-season.
Gaffney, I'm really on the fence. I'd like to see him come back. We'd be adding three new faces, the fourth and fifth WR, Hank and Paul, haven't played much and are still wet behind the ears. For the sake of continuity and having a veteran comfortable in Kyle's system just makes sense.

I am a fan of Gaffney, and would love to see him remain a Redskin. Plus his veteran leadership is invaluable. It would baffle me if the Redskins either cut him or traded him. The only positive thing out of his outgoing would be RG3 would officially get Gaffney's number.

If we get 947 yards out of Morgan, I call it a win.

Add to that, that you can cut a player now and designate him as a June 1 cut allowing the player to ge a new team and the team to save the extra cap money. Talked about it a while ago in the thread.
