2011 Redskins Offensive Rookie of the Year

[Jontrem]

Hankerson

[Monkeydad]

Rooting for Hankerson but I think Helu will get more of an opportunity sooner in the season. Leonard is #4 on the depth chart, Helu is #2 behind a player with an injury history. I just hope he's ready to be thrown into the fire after a short offseason.

[MTK]

With an impressive presesason who knows, Helu could be #1 come 9/11.

[Lotus]

Helu won't be the same as, but might resemble, a young Clinton Portis. Helu ftw.

[FRPLG]

Helu has the best shot at a real opportunity. Hankerson may end up being the better player in the long run, who knows, but WRs are notoriously bad at contributing in rookie seasons while rookie RBs come in and bring it on a much better basis. Plus it is easier for RBs in Shanny's system. Plus plus, our QB situation could be a disaster. This isn't likely to be the year of the WR for Skins.

My thoughts exactly. Ideally Hankerson ends up being the type of player we all hoped Malcolm Kelly was going to turn into, but I like what I'm hearing about Helu and RBs can usually make an impact much earlier.

This would have been a better thread after a few preseason games so we could make some what of an educated guess. I went with Aldrick and I don't even remember who he is or what position he plays.

But Paul could easily be put on PS as well. WR's this year I could see
Moss
Stallworth
Gaffney
AA
Banks
Austin

PS: Paul, Robertson.

or Banks and Austin could be gone and Paul seeing more playing time. I just think the team likes Banks ability for speed and ablility to get open.

so you're saying Hank get's cut? right.

i voted Hank. The things he did at The U makes me think he has a very high ceiling. Statistically he's the best receiver they've ever had (at least his senior year lol), over Irvin, Reggie Wayne, & Andre Johnson. If he becomes anything like them we've got the ultimate steal on our hands. If you can't tell, I'm very high on this guy...

[Uncle Skins]

Helu is going to see quite a bit of spot duty at RB due to Torrain's inability to stay completely healthy over a full season.

Hank won't see the balls because he'll probably hover around 3 to 4 on the depth chart during the year.

[NYCskinfan82]

The OL its the first time there all playing together.

[1niksder]

With our QB situation, Hankerson will get limited opportunities while running the ball will help the QB situation. Throw in Torain wearing a cast. You have to think Helu.

From what I hear Niles Paul is really making some noise in camp so perhaps him. But Hankerson is probably the obvious choice.

haven't we heard he's looking good in camp way too many times, only to have the guy lighting it up in camp end up getting cut. it just seems like people are counting paul on the 53 man roster and he hasn't even set foot on the feild yet. i want paul to be a great wr, and really hope he pans out, but i'm done buying any hype from redskins training camp until i see it happen on the field, which is only about 48 hours away !!!!!!!!

Helu, as an RB he will have more opportunities
