Commanders Post at The Warpath - View Single Post - WR McCardell considering signing with Redskins, Texans

The thing about McCardell is that he would help Jason Campbell a lot. I think that the Redskins want a great veteran there who will make life easier for a young quarterback, giving him a solid possession-receiver option.

McCardell wouldn't come here to be any less than the number three receiver. After all, he could start in his home town of Houston as things stand.

Randle El hasn't really begun to show what he can do, and I think that he will be the number two receiver.

Lloyd, I think has a lot of talent, but right now I don't know if he fits into the plans given that Jason will likely have young quarterback challenges. We may well not be able to sign McCardell, but if we do, I think that Lloyd will drop down to number four on the depth chart.

I like the point about keeping Espy around to give him a chance to develop. If he isn't going to have much of a chance here anytime soon, it might be fairer to him to see if another team has more of an opportunity to give him. James Thrash is not going anywhere - he's a core Redskin. Special teams come first, and he's first on special teams. Not to mention a team leader and good receiver.
