Five Slot Receiver Options In NFL Draft For Washington Redskins

Hogs Haven — The NFL Draft is less than two weeks away, but there is still plenty of things to discuss in the coming days. One of the positions we've not really covered is the slot receiver position. The Redskins currently have Santana Moss filling the role, who they think highly enough as a locker-room presence to work out a way to keep him despite the cap penalty. Moss is coming off a year in which he put up his best touchdown total since 2005, the year he joined the Redskins. But Moss is also 33-years-old and will be 34 before the season starts. They say the learning curve for a wide receiver i...

Washington Redskins 2013 NFL Draft Profile: Josh Boyce, WR, TCU

Hogs Haven — Measurements: Height- 5'11", Weight- 206 lbs. Projected Round: 5 Why he would be a good Redskin: Let's face it, Santana Moss is on his last leg. Sure he exceeded all expectations last year but at this point in his career Moss has too many limitations to be a dynamic slot receiver. Enter Josh Boyce. Foregoing his final year of eligibility to enter the draft, Boyce still proved to have a very productive career at TCU. He set the school record for most career receiving touchdowns. Quietly, Boyce dominated at the NFL Combine being the only receiver to rank in the Top 4 in both the 40 y...

My Fondest Redskins Memory: Redskins vs Bills, December 2007

Hogs Haven — When I first read this prompt, I immediately had a whole collection of memories burst into my mind. RGIII’s touchdown run against the Vikings, Santana Moss deep (twice) late against the Cowgirls, the pulsating playoff game in 2005 against the Buccaneers. I was initially worried about choosing one above the rest, but that only lasted briefly as I remembered the amazing, season ending, playoff clinching, Cowboy-whooping day that was December 30, 2007. As we all remember, 2007 was an extremely tumultuous year. We started out the season promisingly, led by a solid run game and two incre...

Similar role expected for S. Moss

FFToday — Shanahan likes veteran receiver on third down "I liked the way Santana Moss played last year," coach Mike Shanahan said Wednesday at the owner's meetings. "He came in in excellent shape. I think he was a big part of our offense. There's a big upside to Santana next year because he's very familiar with our offense. He did a great job in our third-down package. I expect him to come in in the same type of shape and make the same plays he did last year." (Washington Times) FF Today's Take: Moss finished 2012 with 41 catches, 573 yards and 8 touchdowns. A healthy Pierre Garcon wil...

Redskins’ free agency starts quietly: Santana Moss deal reworked, Aqib Talib still in play

Washington Post — As the NFL’s free agency signing period got underway on Tuesday, the salary-cap strapped Washington Redskins’ moves were limited to restructuring veteran wide receiver Santana Moss’s contract and re-signing punter Sav Rocca to a two-year deal.

The Huddle — Washington Redskins WR Santana Moss restructured his contract and saved the team $2 million in cap space.

  • Should the Redskins Draft a Wide Receiver?
    Santana Moss is old - But Tiller, he led our receivers in touchdowns last season with eight! Leonard Hankerson can't catch, and can't gain separation from defenders - But Tiller, he's just going into his third season, and we all know receivers take the next step after season three. Give him more time. Josh Morgan is always injured - But Tiller, he played well for us this year, and he is such a good blocker. Desmond Briscoe(our only receiver with plus size)sucks, and can't even see the field over a guy like Robinson - But Tiller, he's one of the youngest receivers on the team, an...
  • Steve Breaston is exactly the kind of wide receiver the Browns need: Comment of the Day
    "In my humble opinion, this is exactly the kind of receiver the Browns should be trying to bring in. I think they should take a look at Santana Moss and Steve Smith (the one from the Giants/Eagles/Rams), too. Veteran guys who know how to run good routes, have reliable hands, and can help mentor the young talent we already have at the position, without demanding extensive playing time that would take away from the development of Gordon, Little, & Benjamin." - hedphurst
