Re: All things NFL Offseason 2019.

Does anyone know how Quinton Dunbar is coming along?

Went on IR in December with the nerve condition in his leg. I saw a depth chart updated after the draft that had him in the 4th or 5th CB slot. Do we expect him back at full capacity for the season?

Based on Redskins' lack of pursuit for CB in FA and draft, I think Dunbar will recover fully in time for the season.

No surprise there. Maybe we'll end up signing him back for cheaper than 9M if he earns it...

Unless he improves alot this year, I don't see Redskins resigning him unless we have limited WR options.

Doc is what he is, a solid Red Zone guy. That's all

That's really where you have to give a little credit - he's a disappointment overall no doubt about it - but that 40 inch vertical does come in handy when it's 3rd and goal from the 6.

But if all goes well Harmon or Cam Sims will take him out of that role and render him completely useless to us.

Re: All things NFL Offseason 2019.

The biggest battles this coming preseason will be at WR and Secondary....We actually have a lot of bodies at both.

For the Secondary, I hope we move Fab Monreau out of the Nickel. Let DRC, Rookie, Stroman, and Danny Johnson battle it out there. Dunny, Alexander, Monreau and Norman should compete at Boundry Corner. A lot of eyes are on Alexander from what Im hearing...they really like him.

Im really really hoping Gruden doesn't pencil in "his guy" Trey Quinn as the starter in the slot, he hasn't show enough. A guy like Harmon who is big and physical and needs that off coverage for separation should get a shot...he could be a match up problem for typically under sized slot corners. Ive said this before, but Doctson may flourish in a slot role as opposed to his outside status. If he shows the same ole issue at the start of camp, then move him inside and put the Rook from OSU out at his spot. We need to shake it up at WR, what Gruden and staff have done there clearly has NOT worked.

It's like we're not watching the same offense. Slot needs to be a twitchy position, can't be a guy without quicks. They need to shake free with quick breaks in routes and be a threat to run after the catch to take advantage of the space available in the middle of the field. Quinn is the natural choice. McLaurin might work in there some - he brings a blocking presence.

Harmon definitely belongs outside.

On the slot corner, I wouldn't pigeon-hole anybody yet. Let them come to camp and show what they can do.

yeah, I know its not typical for a slot...but a lot of Harmon comparisons are Sanu in Atllanta.

Here's a good article about Sanu's use:

https://www.atlantafalcons.com/news/...e-for-the-falc

I could see that here....but regardless, I hope we shake it up at receiver and are more creative...I think we could get more out of our guys with scheme. And if Trey Quinn comes in and owns the slot...then that would be great as well.
