I like it. It looks like OL or DL with the 2nd round pick.

I hear that the Redskins are looking at Andrew Hawkins and Kenny Britt

Hell yeah this is nice. He gets overlooked cause he played with Fitzgerald who got all the love. He also always stays healthy.

Not a bad signing but that probably takes Hawkins off the board for us which is fine.


Guys are going for a bit more than they probably should but not a bad play.

I dont think this takes us out of the market for one or even two more WR. BUt it does likely mean Moss is done in DC. Roberts is a slot guy, NO room for two of these types at more than $4 mill a season. So unless Moss does a vet min deal, I think he is done.

Hopefully it takes Britt out of the equation as well.....


I love this signing if it happens....very under the radar, and a good, modest salary for a good ...solid..dependable #2 guy!!!!

Roberts is 5'11"... how does that translate to a #2 guy in our offense?? Slot guy sure. Every down #2... not so much.

With the signing of Roberts I would bypass on a WR in the 2nd round also. Just b/c he is 5'11 doesn't mean he is a #2 Wr shark? cmon he is our #2 no doubt. If we do sign another WR in FA that would mean the end of hankerson and Robinson.

HAnk is coming back off a knee injury, so you cant really put faith in him at this point. In todays NFL, you simply can not have a WR group made up of all guys 6' or less. I think we either sign or draft some one with some height. Right now we have Garcon, Roberts, Robinson, Hank... in that order. You carry six WR.

Hank cant play special teams so if you draft a WR how is Hank going to play? Hank will be ready for the season. If the Skins sign another FA WR I think hank gets cut. Roberts in the 3rd option in our offense behind Garcon and Reed. Not bad at all.

I'm with you Shark. He may line up outside occasionally but in no way was he signed to be a "#2." Hank will have every opportunity to compete and it definitely doesn't take WR off the board.

Actually, I'm not so sure he is our #2. He will play the slot. Say goodbye to Moss. I bet we draft a bigger WR to play opposite Garcon. Look for someone like Benjamin or Matthews from Vandy.

lol if you are going to draft Benjamin or Matthews then just cut hank right now. He is worthless to this team if you draft those two guys.

Is the Roberts deal even done? ESPN says its still pending. b/c if you draft a wr then hank becomes the #5 Wr on this team. #5 WR have to play ST's. Hank cant. So its a wasted roster spot.
