I think the $4 million saved is probably already mostly spoken for. I still didn't hear what kind of deal Fletcher got, then we picked up Goff. Most of that $4 million saved will be used up by the rookie pool, methinks.

But there's still probably room to pick up Jacoby Jones if we wanted. He's not costly.

Yeah I'm sure we'll use that $4 million toward the $7 million rookie pool

Don't know what we got Goff for or what Hightower may want, or even what we got Rackers for. I think I posted Fletcher's numbers here. Can't remember though. Think it was around 5 years 10 million (2 years guaranteed). 5 million guaranteed

Ok so Gaffney is released, who do they sign to take his place or atleast who do they sign to take his place on the roster if not another WR?

That is like saying he was the tallest dwarf.

The Skins passing attack in 2011 was miserable. A lot of that came from the QB competencies - - or lack thereof. A good enough part of that came from the fact that the Skins' WRs - - every last one of them - - was mediocre at the very best.

If you want to anoint Gaffney as "the best of the mediocre lot", fine. But do not get carried away and think that he is a valuable property as an NFL WR.


Great one. :laughing-

That's actually kind of a big deal.

With Beck and Gaffney gone, they now save about $4 million

Gaffney's been told that they may be willing to bring him back later this summer but he wouldn't be competing for a starting spot and it would be for....wait for it....the vet min

Naturally, he's not interested in any of that. Not now at least

Also...how would you all feel about Jacoby Jones?

I would not be happy with Jacoby,he's not an upgrade over Jabar.Being in Houston I've seen more of Jacoby then I want to.He occasionally has a good return,that's about all he's good for

On a serious note, this probably speaks to the teams confidence in Hankerson's rehab as well as Morgan's health.

That would astronomically huge for this young team. I'm daydreaming about how RG3 will bring out the most of these 2- more like everyone. But I can't wait to see who RG's favorite target is.

i say Garcon on the bombs and Freddy for most other routes.

Jacoby Jones would be a great pick up. If nothing else, he could really help our return game. And we will need good returns since we are doomed without the Beck to Gaffney combo.

Was about to add the same thing. Jones gives you a deep threat and a return specialist. Would really like to add him.

As a bonus he already knows the system having worked for KS in Houston.
