Doc Draper Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Let’s be clear, the Redskins made huge mistakes letting both DJax and Garçon walk. Pryor is a project. He’s converting and learning to be a wide receiver. At this point he runs subpar routes, doesn’t High point the ball when catching it diminishing his height advantage, he is afraid to take a hit across the middle leading to alligator arms and his hands are suspect. He’s not a number 1 now. Maybe he can develop into one but it’s a longshot at his age. Comparing him to DJax is like comparing Rod Gardner to Art Monk at this point Doctson? Always injured, no chemistry with Cousins, highly talented but very raw. His drop due to not using two hands cost the redskins the game but he also had two exceptional catches with garçon and DJax we win at KC for sure. But maybe it’s part of the longer term plan- grow these guys to pair with out new QB next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavar703 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Doctson is the best receiver on this roster. Pryor starting over him makes no sense anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreeK1973 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Agreed right now Pryor is simply a number 3 at best. He certainly can't play the slot, that drop pass was huge. hell even his TD catch could have been flagged for a pushoff. If we had Garcon in his place yesterday we win this game.

lavar703 Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Allowing Garçon to walk has been a humongous failure by Bruce Allen. I hated watching DJax go but Garçon did things that made him irreplaceable on this roster. Bonhead move by Allen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaiphoon Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I'm seriously on the page of sitting Pryor down now and making him the #4 WR. I'm at the point where I'm starting to trust Ryan Grant over him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dashing202 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 The signing of Pryor wasn't bad he was catching everything at Cleveland and had 1000 yards. im confused to why he isn't that guy at the moment with a better qb. He's done drills and practices but man if he can catch these balls he'll have another 1000 yard season. although with that being said he did have his best game as a redskins on Monday.

Dashing202 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I'm interested in players like Jarvis Landry if there available . doctson has to start ! He makes plays when the balls thrown to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dashing202 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 You guys gotta let go of Jackson and garçon . First off if we " RESIGN THEM" than we wouldn't have had he money to get guys like Zack brown or DJ . We thought cap wise what would be best for the redskins , these guys are gonna be out of there prime . pryor was a risk but had a good year we made a good choice signing him at the time and could turn it around by the years end . As for Doctson he's showing flashes ... like it or not we will have to deal with this and if not o well will adress the WR postion in the draft or free agency . be patient it's week 4 and at 2-2 we can win the division and arguably get Doctson and Pryor consistently good .

We thought cap wise what would be best for the redskins , these guys are gonna be out of there prime . If you give a guy a reasonable contract while you have exclusive negotiating rights with him (i.e. before free agency), you can maybe get him cheaper than what he would command on the market. San Francisco threw a TON of money at him to get him to come. Akin to what we did five years ago. I thought it wise to keep one of them and let the other walk. Personally, I thought Garcon's 3rd down stick moving ability was worth more than Jackson's deep threat, but I think I was in the minority on that one. Regardless, it was a mistake. Pryor is more athletically gifted than Garcon, but Garcon knows the position orders of magnitude better than Pryor does. He also plays with a lot more heart than Pryor (Garcon would not have alligator armed that critical 3rd down pass). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ill give you a draft pick and Cody Kessler. Getting back to the original poster, I'd send Pryor back to Cleveland for a 3rd & Kessler. Kessler cannot be any worse than McCoy.

He's been a dissapointment but I feel like he'll step up . Seems to me a lot on his mind . there is one gem we can ****** away which is Josh Gordon from the browns for pennies but his offield issues is crazy.
