Grant is definitely 1 of the best 160 WRs in the NFL, based on 5 to a team, there's a spot for him on the roster. Never seen a guy who seems like a great teammate and is under a cheap contract get rheemed so much. He's gonna finish the year with 500+ yards and 4+ TDs. I think he's earned his checks this year.

Kotwika sucks but I blame Gruden for this shitshow.
Gruden picked his WR's and RB's but none of them contribute on special teams.
(For the record, I don't consider Crowders 30th ranked punt return average as a contribution to Teams)

You can't have a team where your 4th and 5th WR's don't play ST but we started the year with Grant and Quick as our 4th and 5th WRs.

Our backup corners(Dunbar and Moreau) are great on special teams coverage.

Talent evaluation on this team is horrible.
Vigils play makes me wonder why we kept Compton this year.

This team is crippled with slow players.
I did forget that. Thanks for reminding me lol. Stepping in the endzone while downing a punt at the 1 was hilariously terrible.

I agree. He's been our most dependable receiver this year, which really is an indictment of our receiving corps. Still, I think he's reached his ceiling. He's never gonna be a clutch guy, or a guy who makes athletic plays over db's, or a guy who catches everything that comes near his hands. But over the course of a year, he'll catch 2/3 of the passes thrown his way. This year we desperately need him, any other year he'd probably be relegated to backup duty.

I dont mind Grant. He got some flack for his play at the end of last year. Slipping on that route that led to an int in a crucial moment wasnt great. Running short of the sticks on 3rd downs, etc.

He's stepped up this year and has been serviceable.

But he is fine for what he is ... on the flip side, you do want your 4-5 WRs to be contributing on teams. Much like your 4-5 CBs.

Re: Redskins over Cards postgame

Grant is fine, it’s not his fault he’s been asked to play as much as he has. He’s clearly a #4 type of WR.

Have to sign Zach Brown back, maybe transition to a 4-3, especially if it's a better way to use Ryan Anderson.

Fuller again had a solid game. Love corners making plays against the run!

I know that has been beaten to death but I really hope this is the base defense next year. I really don't want to see Kerrigan and Smith out in space trying to cover. It's painful to watch.

I think he has earned his checks but at best he is a #4 guy, to me he is just a nothing guy that is just there because we have nothing else

Smith did have a nice INT in coverage last week, but I'm with you on going back to a 4-3 exclusively with Smith, Kerrigan, and Murphy as DEs. Anderson would be much better suited as a strong-side LB. Re-sign Brown to play MLB. We have wasted 8 years dabbling with the 3-4 without a real NT.

That was more of an awful throw than a nice INT, covering just isn't their thing.
