Keep in mind that this guy had the Grossman/Griese/Orton trio of mediocre QBs throwing at him, and he still performed better than S.Moss (61 Rec/808 Yds/3 TDs) or even Randle El (51 Rec/728 Yds/1 TD).
Berrian would give the Skins the tall possession receiver they've been craving and they wouldn't have to give up any picks. I think that a WR tandem of Berrian, Moss, and Randle El, along with Chris Cooley, would give the Redskins a solid passing game. Plus we wouldn't deal with the baggage that Ocho Cinco brings, nor worrying about shelling out tons of $$$. I hope that now Gibbs is gone, DS doesn't go back to his old ways of giving up picks at the drop of a dime.

At 6'1" and 185lbs, that does not qualify one to be a possesion receiver. He will get bullied at the line. Remember Mushin Muhamed(sp) was the #1 and he was the #2.
So if we get him we may see him turn into what Peerless Price was after he left Buffalo behind Eric Moulds. Once he landed in ATL as a #1 he couldn't get open, get past the double teams that #1 receivers face, and he couldn't live up to his heft contract.
I say, no way Jose.
