Re: Redskins Offseason Thread

Watching the KC vs Tenn replay, based on what happened to Smith and that offense once Kelce went out, I think we need to bring in another guy. Adjusting to a key loss like that in game is much different than between games, so it's not to say that team with that talent couldn't be productive without a monster TE, and I put that kind of adjustment more on the coach than the QB, but looking at all his tape, I think TE is important for him, and really it's just important in the league now.

That said, if we can stay healthy at TE, especially if we bring in or next starter to develop, our TE corps is one of the best in the league. Smith will ball out with Reed and I'm sure he's looking forward to reuniting with VD. A solid guy that can block well and be a threat in the passing game would give us a succession plan in place at a really key position for Grudens offense and Smith's strengths.

Re: Redskins Offseason Thread

Well, Reed is not expected to participate OTAs.. This is disappointing, I'm certain Reed knows plays and all that but it would be nice if he has opportunity to build chemistry with Smith..

Moves TE priority up a notch in my mind.

Re: Redskins Offseason Thread

I think changing the name to Warriors would be cool but keeping the same colors and logo, if they change it all up it would just kill the tradition.

Re: Redskins Offseason Thread

#Redskins are adding recovery facilities this offseason to try and fight injuries. “Better work because it’s expensive,” Gruden says.

I agree.. Unfortunately, at this point, I think we don't really have choice but to stick with what we have until next offseason? Reed (nothing needs to be said), Davis is on last year of the contract and Sprinkle is still unknown. That is unless highly rated rookie TE falls to us in 2nd (or 3rd round if we trade back) then I can see us drafting one.

Good thing it's just Snyder's money. Well if you want to be technically, that money comes from us fans..

He will have some kind of injury before training camp starts.

Re: Redskins Offseason Thread

Moses and Trent Williams also won't be there for OTA's.

Asked today re: lack of FA signings, Jay notes if #Redskins had signed a bunch of guys, they’d be criticized for spending wildly + if they don’t make a ton of moves, they’d be criticized for not approaching FA the right way.

Gruden said they’re just doing what’s best for team

Re: Redskins Offseason Thread

I certainly feel for Redskins management for having to face criticism just because THEY ARE LOSING and doing little to fix the deficiencies that cause the losing. Here's an idea for Jay: Just WIN and the criticism will abate.

Honestly though, there have been several sources from other teams and guys who cover the team closely (JP Finley) that don't see the level of dysfunction that once existed and believe that Gruden is leading the organization in the right direction.

In a way, I do feel for Jay having to answer for the mistakes of those that came before him. I'm not saying he's made no mistakes himself, but it must be annoying to have your approach questioned with skepticism constantly when you feel you have been making progress.

I honestly think that any Skins fan that is upset about the way they've handled FA for the past 4 years must have been in a coma for the preceding 10.

Cooley said they’re investing $600k in recovery tanks. Also said players were asked about any improvements or what could be done regarding injuries, mostly just bad luck was the response. Still, good to hear something is being done even if it’s must a mental thing why not try it
