68 rec, 5 td, and nearly 1,000 yards last season on the wrong side of 30

11 years in the league, never had a 1,000 yard season, didn't break the 700 yard mark until 2009, never had more than 5 TDs in a season. In fact over 11 years he only had more than 2 TDs twice. Only got close to 1000 yards this season because of the suspension of Fred Davis and Santana's injury. Didn't break 60 receptions until 2010. Redskins fans have really gotta get outta this lovefest for the mediocre. That is what Gaffney is, a mediocre journeyman receiver.

no lovefest, just directly answering your question

Not directed at you, just the people who continue to say that Gaffney should have been kept at all costs as if he were some kind of game changing receiver.

If Leribeus is still taking reps at center or if he has gone back to guard.

ah, it seemed like it was in my direction since you quoted my entire post in your post.

I quoted Goat first, you answered. You haven't shown a man crush on Gaffney like some here have.

i'd have to see all the cap numbers to decide if he should have been kept at all.
good cut if (cap space on 9/9/12) ≤ (2012 cap savings from cutting him)
should have been kept if (cap space on 9/9/12) > (2012 cap savings from cutting him)

Just by looking at his face I think it's obvious he's dropped some weight

Wasn't it Smoot that was telling us that Shanny wasn't too happy with how Moss came into camp last year out of shape? Guess he learned quick that wasn't going to fly with Mike like it did with Zorn.

I don't recall saying that, but Moss has definitely stepped it up this off-season. No guarantee he'll make the final roster but it won't be for lack of trying.

Might have been one of the other ES insiders. Couldn't remember if it was you or one of them. Didn't mean to attach that intel to you.

I have a ton of questions.
Some I won't bother asking (that I would like to ask via PM) because they're probably considered competitive advantage questions, . (i.e. how much shotgun did they use in practice? which formations do they use and how often etc...)
Enough preamble:

The OL:

Where is LeRib playing?
How is Jammal Brown looking? The very breif clip I saw of the OL/OTAs last week it looked like he was still limping.
Who is taking the back-up reps at RT/LT?
Which players are taking reps at Center besides Montgomery?
Does Chester take any reps at Center?
Is Kory Lichtensteiger out there yet?

Skill positions:

How many reps does Paul get at TE and with which unit?
Does Morris take any snaps at FB?
How does Cousins look compared to Rex?

DBs

Which Safeties are out there with the 1st unit?
Who is the 1st unit Nickleback/Slot DB?
Which unit and what spot is Keenan Robinson playing RILB or LILB?

DL

What DL unit (1st/2nd) and where does Jarvis Jenksins play (RDE/LDE)?
Does he take any snaps at NT?

Even more interesting would be a true competition between Gaffney and Garcon, but there's no way Mike would let it happen. I'd still give Gaffney the clear edge for knowing the system, general experience and having better overall hands. Given Mike's ego, Garcon is the safest WR on the roster even though he's proved nothing...a big reason I hate it when we give an unproven player a huge contract.

Let it go man, let ... it ... go!!

Just buy yourself a Gaffney fathead, hang it in your bedroom, and let the rest go.
