We need to let this rookie class of WR / TE see if they have the NFL juice. If Jason has a strong OL and protection, he may do better and there can be no excuses for him or these new WR.

I was surprised the either Hixon or Danny Smith were not replaced as coaches this season. I guess that Zorn thinks we are on the edge of greatness and that no changes are necessary on his entire coaching staff. We shall see.
Lets not forget Desmond turned into a SB MVP. Redskins had the forsight to draft him but not to keep him.

Strange how many good/great players came to the Skins and flopped. They get on other teams and produce???

as a returner, not a wr. Never lived up to his draft position, but he ended up having a pretty long career. I don't fault mgmt. for letting him walk out of town.

True, but he could have been returning punts for us. Brian Mitchell was a running back. ARE and Moss are recievers they all return punts. Mngmt also needs to recognize talent for purposes other than their own intent.

We have great talent on our current team not utilized correctly

Just a obsevation.

Re: Our WRs in 2009... My Thoughts

Anybody think about Darrell Jackson for next year? We could probably get pretty good value since he's been injured the past 3 years. He hasn't been good since Seattle, but then he was in the west coast offense and Zorn was there.
