Re: Trade Deadline Moves

Mayfield and Darnold are both playing well as rookies, not sure what you're missing there.

By the time the Giants are relevant again Barkley will be nearing his 2nd contract. The only reason they took him over a QB is they thought they could win now with Eli. Clearly a huge miscalculation.

Darnold and Mayfield are playing Ok no way I am putting them in the HOF yet , we will agree to disagree on the rest. Eli threw for almost 4 hundred the other night and no INT's ...it's not on Eli.

Darnold looks really good imo. Baker needs to chill the f out, once he does he should be legit.

Why I used the word yet. Redskin fans should know as well as anyone that a good even great first year for a rookie QB doesn't mean a thing . Continued success and growth in year two then I might proclaim a "franchise QB".

What is your definition of "playing well".

http://www.espn.com/nfl/player/stats...baker-mayfield

http://www.espn.com/nfl/player/_/id/3912547/sam-darnold


He's got way too many turnovers and is sporting a below 80 rating.


Granted, I think he's(BM) giving the Browns a chance to win the games unlike that trashcan Tyrod Taylor.

Same with Darnold too. I get these guys are rookies, but I wouldn't say they are "playing well". They are playing as expected in my opinion. Lots of turnovers and inconsistencies.

Playing well for rookie QBs, both have had flashes

Re: Trade Deadline Moves

Well the deadline is upon us. Does anybody see the Skins making a move for anybody?

I’ve still got my fingers crossed we can pick up Golden Tate from the Lions for maybe a 4th round pick. He can catch the short throws that Smith loves and can make something happen. 44 catches for 517 yards and 3 TDs on the year. Which is more than 1/3 of the total yards we have through the air so far.

And most importantly. He stays healthy.

No trade by Redskins, Trey Quinn, Crowder and Dunbar should be back this week.

He is a free agent after this season I believe...30...can he be effective from the outside though? or is his value only in the slot?

I don't know about trading for someone who you could get if you want this offseason...combine that with value in the slot...meh. Id like to see someone get separation from the outside.

Id pass.

WR salary dump for an extremely late pick I wouldn't be opposed to...

With Dunbar still in doubt and if we could pry Gareon Conley away for a 4th...Id like it. Young guy, let Torian Gray get his hands on him, we could have a gem. Put him in the mix of young CB would be a win.

Re: Trade Deadline Moves

Right now I don't think a new WR would help us all that much. To me the rate limiting factor in the passing game is Alex Smith's newness to the offense. He's not anticipating breaks in routes, he's double clutching, delivering late. He's waiting to see guys come open before he throws it. Bringing a new WR in won't change that. Smith just has to get more comfortable and throw it with some anticipation.

Not that our current crop of WRs are world beaters, but Jordan Reed's numbers are down too, a sign that Smith isn't as in sync with him as Cousins was. Which you'd expect, by the way. Smith is new to us.

I think we can expect it to get better as they work together. I certainly wouldn't do anything that would layer on significant salary this year at the WR spot.

I was about to say something similar. Smith is still trying to get on the same page with our current guys, not sure what adding another one to the mix would really help right now.

If we were to make a move I'd rather go for a CB or pass rusher.

Re: Trade Deadline Moves

Jamie Collins LB Browns who people used to rave about would be an intriguing choice for a low pick.
