he's not fast enough because he weighs 250 lbs but if you were to have gone up to him in January and say, we want to make you our #2 WR, lose 30 lbs, he would have done it and speed would increase with the reduced weight. I'm not saying it should be done now, but why keep three TEs?

Two reasons:

1. Depth. We lose a TE to injury, we need reliable back-ups.

2. Goal Line stands. When we are on the 2 yard line, multiple TE's are going to help get that ball in the end zone. Be it for blocking or receiving reasons.

I seriously wonder if Rosario is faster than Jarrett. I think Barnidge is -- let's line him up wide.

Rosario can't even make consistent plays against linebackers, and the starter of this thread wants to line him out wide, so he can be blanketed by faster athletes. lol

Barnidge, that might be doable....even then...who knows.

Yeah Fiz has suggested this several times in the past...

My problem with this is that I just honestly do not think he's fast enough to consistently line up out wide and beat coverage. No doubt he has ball skills, can locate it and go get it... But, his speed is good enough to beat most LBs in coverage, but definitely not fast enough to beat DBs in man...

Look honestly, we don't have the pieces on the roster - we have to look elsewhere.

      Off Season Thread

      Yeah, I'm not back for sure, just lurking during the off-season. Can't post anything someone may disagree with without it being taken as some personal attack. Anyway, yeah, Nikishin will be on the 2nd pair with Burns. RBA's exit presser really sounded like Burns will move down to the 2nd line. Slavin-Chatty Nikishin-Burns Ghost-Walker Morrow

      I dont think this is the flex you think it is.  He said this, and then went on to have the worst 2 starts in arguably historyto start the season.  Which in turned gave DC no other option then to bench.  So yeah,  focusing on the offseason obviously matters.  So dunking on the netflix folks looks pretty embarrassing all things considered.   qb rating of 6 and 10.      "I was kind of away from football for the most part, just living every other aspect of my life. Just hanging out, being around family, being around friends, getting back to a routine that doesn't revolve as much around football. For me, it was still being able to just enjoy and work out, but the Xs and Os actual football part, kind of stepping away from it." "Legit, it sounds boring, like I'm holding something out, but I'm not. But it's really like I watch YouTube, I watch TV, I watch Netflix, and every once in a while, I'll go someplace to maybe look at some clothes or something. There's nothing really cool that I'm just trying to hang onto. I'm definitely kind of a homebody. I'm an only child, so I'm used to being able to just chill on my own. That's how I decompress. So it's really just that."
