Cousins: Redskins have a long list of needs and QB is way down the list. No he's not the transformational superstar that we all thought we had in RG3, but he can play. I wish Gruden would trust him more. He knows the only thing that can get him fired is if Cousins implodes.

Morris: I have changed my tune. I wouldn't invest anymore money in him. He will be much better for a zone blocking team. I wish him well. He doesn't hit the hole like he used to and is too concerned with fumbling the football.

Jones: I like him. I think he will be fine dispite the struggles. You can see the burst and the aggression.

Young: I wish they would swallow their pride and run out of the "I" once in a while. It's not working!

Ribeye/Lich: One of the most pressing needs on the team. Take one with our 2nd please!

Lauvao: I would like to see the Skins bring in Osemele or Brooks and move him to the bench. I hate when the Skins sign someone they feel they need to let the other guy go. Good teams have depth and prepare for injuries.

Long: I would like to see him as the backup center next year.

Scherff: Won't lie, kind of dissapointed. He has been so up and down, but I expect him to figure it out. Needs to work on his footwork the same way Moses did. Missed a few last week, but also put Lee on his back and drove him into the ground.

Moses: I scratched RT off my list a couple of weeks ago. Not there yet but has taken a huge step this year.

Trent: Beast.......I don't remember Hardy doing much of anything Monday. Could be wrong.

Reed: Will be a top 5 TE in the league when it's all said and done.

Paul: Looking forward to getting him back, so we can be less predictable on offense and more reliable on special teams. That was a huge loss for us this year.

Jackson: They better bring him back. He has made a huge play every week since he returned. Bone head play, but the 2.8YPC in the run, missed FG, poor coverage at the end, penalties, horrific playcalling and no pass rush are systemic problems that far outweigh one bad decision.

Garcon: Bring him back. Money on 3rd down and our best blocking WR.

Crowder: Good job Scot.

Grant: So done with him. I just don't see it. Need to replace him with a guy like Sanu.

Not sold on Jay, but I have softened my stance on him a little. I just don't know how to feel about him. The Bengals are better without him, but the Skins are better with him. Jury is still out.

We are loaded at Guard. I cant see us paying good money in FA to get a guard when we have Kojo 4th round pick on the bench plus Lavou hurt. I am glad to see another Redskins fan besides myself not impresses with Scherff. At #5 overall he should be doing a whole lot better by now and he is not. It just puzzles me how other fans don't think Williams would have been the right pick for now and the future.

After seeing what Crabtree just signed for, yes bring back both Garcon and Jackson.

I was and still am in the draft Scherff camp. Time will tell. We can't run at all, and I don't want to base our run game on two performances against the Rams and Dolphins who have been terrible. I certainly don't want to go into next year counting on Kojo. Guard and Center must be addressed imo.

With Williams in NY, I am hoping we can steal Wilkerson. They are pretty deep along the DLine. Wilkerson and Baker on the ends with Knighton in the middle is part of my dream off-season.

WR is not really an issue. Let's not make it one. Glad we see eye to eye on that. Still could use a big target though.

Guard does not have to be addressed Center does. Lavou and Scherff are the guards with Long and Kojo backing them up. Why would you add a guard? Even if we cut Lavou we still have enough depth. We can not run b/c we have a horrible predictable play caller. No one can run against 9 man fronts.

Zack Martin became a force with Bill Callhan in his rookie year and was selected in the teens. Sherff is not doing what Martin did in his rookie year. That is how I am comparing. You cant tell me that Williams wouldn't have given our defensive line a huge boost.

Oh, I think Williams would have, but watching Polumbus and Chester last year was hard. I don't regret taking Brandon. I will admit, he has struggled at time this year. I don't think Long is a starter. Lauvao had two good games. He was horrible last year. If the Skins want to have a philosophy of grind it out ball control, they need to have a first rate line.

Lauvao and Long have been fine. Scherff has been very good. You can't judge a lineman without knowing the OL calls.

Trent is the only OL in the league to not allow a sack. He is OK.

We do need to bring back DJ but his mistake trumps all the other short comings in the game. Yes...one play can cost you the game.

Garçon needs to go based on his value.

Grant is still young. Why would you want to waste veteran money on a fourth or fifth WR?

I'd rather sign a semi cheap tall WR, than invest a 1st day pick on a position that is solid imo with all the other holes we have. With Grant all I ever hear is how good of a practice player he is. I would have much rather had Roberts out there Monday, and that'that's saying something. Maybe they like him on coverage, not sure. With DJ and us, I just don't want us to fool ourselves into thinking that if it wasn't for DJ. Fix the real issues.

A mistake that likely doesn't happen, same goes for Hopkins missed FG and his short KO isn't magnified to the extent it was. If Cousins hits on just one of what turns out to be several deep ball opportunities that were there to be made before the Jackson fumble occurred.

No doubt we've had some good games this year, but maybe this stat tells us more about our team's struggles this season.

I know that others will come back with this reason or that one, bottom line is they don't score enough.

Wow. A lotta times in these rankings the numbers aren't treally too far from one team to another. But Carolina has a nice padding between them and the second place team. While the Skins just fall off a cliff at the bottom.
