I'm on the fence, I'd almost not want to sign Moss either. Only because of age and being injury prone. For me as long as we incorporate our new young talent we picked up from the draft.

I'm also on the fence with Austin. Maybe he pans out. Kelly I foresee him getting cut. I suspect history will repeat itself and he will injured yet again or riding the bike on the sideline because of his knees. I guess I'm just over Kelly now.

Edwards, Moss, AA and Hank and we could have a damn good group of WR's

Injury prone might be a bit of a stretch. Moss hasn't missed a game in 3 years.

I was going to say the same thing, I didn't think he had been injured that often but was to lazy to confirm.

MTK · 07-08-2011, 03:03 PM

He's missed all of 4 games in his 6 years here.

Well AH will need company on the bench, so great.

THAT MANY!!!! SHOW HIM THE DOOR PLEASE!!! That's 4 games out of 96 not to mention a couple of playoff games. We have to resign him. It's a no brainer

Not crazy about the idea of getting Braylon... he drops a lot of balls. Also a little worried about the DUI and how he might handle having a John Beck at QB

We're not picking up Braylon. This is one thing one guy thought might happen. The original source of this rumor pretty much just said the Redskins could target him. I don't think they will.

Hell, they'd pick Santonio before they picked Braylon, and Santonio has his issues too. But at least Santanio brings the production.

He has some drops but He's 6"4 and has long arms. He's a possession guy Imo

Big red zone target which we haven't had in how long?

Armstrong 5'11, 185
Austin 5'11, 175
Banks 5'7, 155
Taurus Johnson 6'1, 218
Maurice Price 6'1, 197
Moss 5'10, 205
Kelly 6'4, 226
Hankerson 6'2, 209
Paul 6'1, 224
Robinson 5'10, 184

Here's are list as of right now. Honestly, I figure Kelly to get injured again or have knee issue's, Moss is 32 y/o but I guess he's worth keeping if he's cheap. I figure only 1 or 2 Rookie WR's will make the active roster and the other one will be on PS, Johnson and Price might be cut to make room for the new guys unless they really shine. For whatever reason I thought of Austin as being a pretty small guy also but he's actually 1 inch taller then Moss. I could see us picking up 1 more vet Edwards or someone just to be safe. Then we would have...

Moss
Armstrong
Banks
Hankerson
Paul
Robinson

Thats 6 not including any on the PS. So picking up another Vet would not hurt us and one of the new guys probably could sit on the PS.
