ESPN Redskins reporter John Keim reports the team will try to re-sign impending free agent WR Ryan Grant.
Per Keim, the team likes the 27-year-old wideout "a lot." It's hardly a surprise, as Grant has been a teacher's pet-type under coach Jay Gruden. Consistently utilized as the No. 3 in 2017, Grant is best served as a No. 4. Keim reports the team wants to add a burner opposite Josh Doctson.
shocker
Grant is fine as a backup.

A guy we need to bring in for a cheap deal is Bryce Butler, he can stretch the field and is a good possession guy. To replace Pryor. Obviously I'd love Landry but he'll cost too much.

Yeah you nailed it. We never came close to replacing DeSean in our lineup. It wiped out a lot of our playbook.
Thompson and the line stepped up to sort of replace it in a way with the screen game. But what a dynamite offense we'd be if we got Thompson back healthy and had a reliable burner who could stretch the defense. Get Reed healthy in the middle of the field and then we've really got something.
Grant is fine as a backup.
I don't think so.
Backup WR's need to contribute on specials teams, Grant does not.
We need to fix ST by adding talent to our backup skill positions.

There are a few much more important tasks than signing Grant. Obviously KC. And a starting WR, C or G, FS and more. They should have plenty of money to sign free agents.
Lets start with FS Tre Boston, WR Paul Richardson and G Andrew Norwell. Norwell will be expensive, however he could be a great investment.

What does it say about your receivers when Ryan Grant is your leading receiver?

I really like the the Richardson and Norwell ideas. May i also throw a guy like ILB Avery Williamson to the mix
