It's OK to use a player's name. You did good by beating everyone else to the RGIII name, it will be in high demand.

Welcome to the site.
Unless the Colts draft RG3. LOL!

re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan

Keim read my mind with this part of the piece:
. "My assumption is that Niles Paul still would make the roster as a No. 5; the Redskins love his special teams prowess and his blocking. I wonder about Gaffney. He had a career year in 2011 and was a solid route-runner. But Gaffney didn't scare defenses and managed only 172 yards after the catch on 68 receptions. Hard to see where he'd fit in if the Redskins get all three receivers. "

I agree 10000%. Paul to me is a keeper, Gaffney might have a tough time especially gets tougher with Eddie Royal.

Good read, thanks for the link. These signings will either be viewed as good or bad based on how RG3 (or the 5% chance of Luck) plays....lots of pressure on him but seems like a smart kid so hopefully he picks up the offense quickly and can let his talent take over.

I can definitely understand why Gaffney could be out. Solid possession guy, but he doesn't scare defenses and he doesn't do anything after the catch.

Someone was mentioning on here the other day that the Colts may be leaning towards RG3 because he spoke so much more eloquently than Luck during interviews. Doubt it is true, but you never know.

After the trade, Bruce Allen said "We fell in love with two players". I'm assuming and hoping that is Luck and RG3, so getting the #2 pick assures one of them. If it's anyone else, I'd be shocked.

When Bill Polian suggested the RG3 will make Pierre Garcon a better receiver, It was clear the Colts plan on going with Luck.

But, he made the big catches last season. He had a couple of drops, but Moss, Stallworth and Armstrong couldn't hold onto big catches to save their lives. Gaffney caught almost every ball and was reliable in the red zone.

He'll be back.

I think they figure Morgan can have the same production as Gaffney and is younger. If Gaffney leaves that frees up #10.

Shameless self-promotion. It is what it is.

Garcon doesn't have great hands though, I'd rather see them get a guy with sure hands. Not to mention his contract is redskins stupid money. Morgan was a great pickup, very underrated guy, should do very well IMO.

I like that we are getting/targeting players that have a deep affinity for the Redskins as it is. It gives them incentive to play that much harder. Very smart move.

Yeah, kinda feel bad for Gaffney but that is the business. Everyone throws around trades for players that are outlandish and dont stand a chance, but Gaffney could hold a late round trade value if the situation presents itself.
