Should the Redskins Sign a big name receiver in the Off Season?

[10]

.....the shanahans' and allen are going to continue to build this team through the draft....and stay young....around griffin.

....similar to the way belicheck built and re-built around brady.....and how reid kept philly young for years.

the days of signing "big names" in washington are in the past.

No, i think we're to the point where we dont really need to go out and get any names or big splashy signings.
we have some needs to address but WR isn't one of them.
I like Bowe, but with Garcon there's no need. Garcon is going to be a solid number 1, if he's not already.
I want to see Hankerson after he's 100% back from his hip.. both in his body and mind. I want to see Robinson develop.


Moss is getting up there, but he's not done yet, i believe

You lost me when you said he had an ego.

He comes across as a guy with an over inflated ego, a showboat type guy...not sure how I lost ya. Maybe I'm wrong.

[RelSpiff]

ive been crossing my fingers on somehow someway the redskins come away with tavon austin in nxt yrs draft..but i doubt it

Snyder needs to throw all the money he can at RT Ryan Clady. And the rest on a top notch safety.

He's balled out this year and with Denver's investment in Manning, It's gonna be tough to throw enough $$ his way. He is a LT too and I don't think he'll want to switch.

Lost in all the WR chatter is Hankerson quietly putting together a solid basically rookie campaign. 40 catches 500 yards ain't to shabby, especially as rookie WRs take a couple years to develop. Hell, he has made more of an impact this year than Devin Thomas' entire NFL career.

We need a secondary.

[Drexen Del'Sangre]

I am of the impression that we do not need big name WR's. Have you guys seen how wide open our WR's regularly get? Just give me guys that can run sharp routes, good hands and out run defenders. Guys in the Amendola and Welker molds will do just fine. I want to spend what little bit of cap space we have on OL and the defensive backfield. IMO Jarius Byrd should be a top target.

[U C S D SkinsFan]

If we didn't have cap penalty...I'd say we should go after a WR...but since we don't, I wouldn't. We literally have 99 problems and a WR isn't the biggest one

Clady is a Shanahan pick,, if he is moving, he'll definitely be attracted to us.
That is a big signing I could get behind.

If Fred Davis leaves I would like the team to go after Jared Cook. I think RG3 would turn that guy into a beast.

For those rallying for Dwayne Bowe... have you actually seen him play? He's terrible... He can't catch a cold and drops about 4 out of 5 passes thrown to him in the wide open. He's a "run before the catch" receiver way too often. Only guy i'd take on there is Greg Jennings and if he comes cheap becuase of his injuries. Mike Wallace has even had a bad year

[RGIIINATION]

There are a great deal more positions we need to secure before drafting another receiver. Like Alfred Morris, we might save a late draft pick for a diamond in the rough. Perhaps there might be a free agent worth considering. As for the draft, let's focus our attention on an OL and defensive players. My

Id honestly rather have Barden then Bowe or Wallace. Barden will come super cheap, hes like 4 inches taller then Bowe and like a foot taller than wallace (lol @ exaggeration). But hes also quite fast, and this guy has the longest arms Ive ever seen. I honestly feel like he hasnt gotten a fair shot at NY because of Nicks and Cruz. I think he will be a beast somewhere, why not come here.
Listen, the one thing Im good at is predicting no name WRs being great. I predicted Cruz would be amazing after watching his preseason games, even before the Jets/Giants where he scored 3 tds (I know theres no proof, but I did).
I predicted that TY Hilton was going to be a monster, and I predicted that Stevie Johnson was going to be the man in Buffalo years before he was. I know WR's, and Im telling ya, Ramses Barden WILL be the next Randy Moss, I hope we get him. And he will come super cheap.

If they were to go that route, get a WR who is young, hungry, speedy or quick, and can catch a ball.
One thing the team could use is a REAL downfield threat with speed and height.
