The Redskins 2020 draft class

[AnonEmouse]

We have space to make a good offer don't we? Probably able to outbid a lot of other teams, plus we can make it a 1 year prove it deal to avoid a future hit if he doesn't pan out.

Clearly Ron has shown he didn’t dislike our TE group enough to go out and get anyone, and especially not enough to go break the bank and overpay for a FA tight end. Don’t expect the Skins to be in the mix of one of the Bucs TEs are cut.

Never say never.

I was wrong about Howard being a cut candidate though, no way the Bucs would pick up his option if he didn't have some value.

Well we did make the second best offer to Hooper and went pretty far with trade negotiations for OJ so it wasn’t like they weren’t trying. I don’t think we need to try and address every hole with a long term solution in year 1. I do hope they spend some cap money bc while I understand the benefit of not using all of it so it rolls over .... but we roll over unused money every year so at what point do we “go for it”, put all available resources into winning.

I imagine going into year 2, we should have our long term solution at LT, TE and secondary.

If we wanted a TE that bad we would have addressed it somewhere in the draft.

I have a new theory, see my post above, which wasn’t finished. I may be wrong, but we’ll see in the next months.

Gronk hasn't played in a year, has battled injuries and is now in his 30's. I doubt he's going to be the same player he was. Injury waiting to happen. I'm not even sure why Tampa Bay would want him. Maybe to sell tickets or get their fans excited. They're fine at TE w/ Brate and Howard imo.

I can't help but wonder what their backup plan for LT is in case Charles isn't ready. Slide Moses or Christian to left?

Maybe they bring in Jason Peters for a workout and if he impresses, give it to him on a one-year deal. Then Charles won't have to start from day one. If not Peters, maybe another Penn-like tackle just to hold down the fort until Charles is ready. I'm just not sure I'm ready to trust Haskins' blind side to Charles from day one.

They signed Lucas pretty early as primary depth, I would imagine he will competing for LT.

Hush your mouth! Nobody wants to see that.

I wouldn't need to see Jason Peters workout to bring him in on a one year deal. He played just fine last season. I wouldn't mind if they paid him well, either.

[SFREDSKIN]

Jason Peters and TW share the same agent, don't see Peters coming here.

[skinsfaninok]

Ron Rivera on Cam "Yes I have thought about bringing Cam in but it would have to be on the right circumstances" Also said he is very happy with Dwayne and Kyle Allen.

I don't know exactly why but I feel like I like Penn over Peters in our situation. At 37 years old, I'm not sure Penn gets many offers if the Skins don't sign him. He proved he could do the job last year.
While Peters is 38, I feel like he's getting more attention and would be more expensive.

Now, we all know either of them would be stop-gap solutions, and I'd be fine with either of them.

Penn is out there, why not bring him back

Fine by me. We're gonna need a good vet at LT for a year or two IMHO.
