Who will have the best season?

Choices are:
Coles
Gardner
Any of the Redskins WR's

~~~Discuss~~~




My Opinion:
Gardner.
Why:
Coles is the most talented, but he will be slowed by his toe and will be double covered all year.

Moss will be missused just like coles was last year. i think he will get injured going over the middle.

Jacobs is the only other guy with the talent to have a very good year but who knows what he is going to do. i hope he is starting.

Gardner is able to beat defenders. he is deceptively fast and makes the tough catches. if only he could catch the easy ones...
he is going to a good system with a good QB, WR and a good backfield. Hopefully for him he can stay in the same system for a few years so he can get comfortable with the offence and pay more attention to catching the ball.

I am not sure but I dont think that Gibbs will send Moss across the middle. I think that is why we brought Dyson in...

coles was too slow to break free, he wassn't misused, he's just not the speedster he was when when got him... even slowed in a run heavy offense he got 900 yards, so i imagine he'll do the best and post 1000-1200 back with the jets.

it looks like we can lots of speed and multiple threats, i'm sure we'll have at least 2 700-800 yard guys and a bunch more in the 300-500 range, but we're not really going to have a clear cut #1 go-to guy.

I'm saying Coles, assuming Pennington is good to go.

Gardner is in a fight for the #2 job with Keary Colbert, who had a decent season last year. I think Moss will provide some big plays for us with good yards-per-catch, but I don't see him and Ramsey connecting all that often (maybe 50 receptions for Moss).

Coles did have a bum toe, but he still caught a ton of balls for us. I can't see his production declining by switching from Ramsey to Pennington. He'll be the only one of these WRs to go over 1000 yards.

Even counting Moss? I think Moss could easily go over 1000 yards if healthy.

I don't know about the Panthers offense. Someday, someone will realize that Delhomme has exactly zero zip on the ball, and has been the beneficiary of Muhammed and Smith making plays against a defense stacked against the run. Gardner will be forced to make plays on almost every pass to him, and while he's certainly capable of doing so, a case of the dropsies will not endear him to John Fox.

I dunno, I really like Delhomme. The guy just gets it done somehow. Last year the Panthers really needed him to step up and he did just that.

Right. Unlike the whole Redskins team, Delhomme just has that "thing" that lets him win. He's not the most talented and DEFINITELY doesn't have a lot of zip, but he just wins.

Gardner might not even be guaranteed to start in Carolina, they already have Smith and Colbert. Colbert had a pretty solid rookie season, I'm sure they'd like to see him continue to develop.

Delhomme and Pennington are very similar in this. In terms of "zip" on the ball, Ramsey wins, hands down. He just hasn't proven that he is one of those guys that "just wins"....YET!

As for the original question:
Coles will do well if healthy, which is doubtful.
Gardner will be alright, but I don't see him doing much more than his last couple years here, especially fighting for the starting spot with Colbert.
Our guys are more of an unknown. Moss has the potential to be the tops, but that is provided he stays healthy. Jacobs could finish the season as the #1 or #2, but right now, nobody really knows. Patten is solid, but can he really fill the role of a true #2 WR? I think our group will out-perform the former Skins and what all of the "experts" predict.
