"Washington Redskins coach Jay Gruden recently assured Alfred Morris that the drafting of third-round bruiser Matt Jones won't affect the veteran running back's role this season.

If general manager Scot McCloughan's assessment is correct, though, Jones could displace Morris as soon as 2016."

Three straight 1,000+ yard seasons, all three seasons 4+ yds per carry. 26 years old entering last year of contract, not wanted by the 'skins as it seems.

Sound familiar? A Redskins RB undervalued and unappreciated? I would love to pick this guy up on the cheap.

It's hard to judge the value of a RB in the Shanahan offense, even though he didn't have the Shanahan offense last season. I mean, guys like Tatum Bell were racking up 100 yard games in that system. It's very RB friendly.

      Time to Start Roughing Out the '26--Needs and Pecking Order

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Ok, we ain't making the playoffs unless something insanely crazy happens and plus it's November, time to start planning for the draft this spring.  Pretty simple, list our positions of need, address in the draft (or left to FA) and round we should draft that need. Currently we have 8 selections, the actual slot in each round still to be determined by finishing order, but I can't see a huge swing one way or the other. (This as of Week 10) Needs: (no particular order) ILB, CB, DL, Edge, S, QB, IOL, OT Rd1: ILB/EDGE Rd2:OT Rd3:Edge/ILB (opposite of round 1) Rd4:S Rd5-a:CB Rd5-b:QB Rd6:IOL Rd7:DL

      Isn’t XL the player Nicole Tepper told Canales to trade-up for during draft day?

      Yeah it is along the lines of ‘fraud vitiates everything’, it just prevents an honest assessment.  You got guys with some acknowledged issues, really swimming upstream due to the quality of the QB.    I think back to game two this year when he got a lot of targets and was unable to do anything. When you look back nothing, or maybe one, was in a decent place for him to get.  I think it was week two. And ‘a lot’ maybe be overstating but there were a few.
