Looks like Redskins snatch 3 WRs off FA market in first 2 hours.

Garcon

Eddie Royal

Josh Morgan

Profootballtalk reports the Redskins have agreed to terms with WR Josh Morgan on a five-year, $12 million contract.

The five years are misleading, apparently in an attempt to extend the proration of the signing bonus. The deal will void after two years and contains a more than respectable $7.5 million in guarantees. Morgan was viewed around the league as a solid playmaker under-utilized by the 49ers. He'll join Pierre Garcon, and likely Eddie Royal, in a revamped Redskins receiving corps. Santana Moss and Jabar Gaffney are on notice while Leonard Hankerson is blocked.

Grant Paulsen of 106.7 The Fan in Washington reports the Redskins have agreed to terms with WR/KR Eddie Royal.

Targeting three new receivers, Redskins are pushing to sign Josh Morgan to go with Royal and Pierre Garcon. A favorite of Mike Shanahan's going back to Denver, Royal is a candidate to play the slot and pitch in on returns. Santana Moss' roster spot now appears to be in jeopardy.

these are good moves actually, especially royal

They really overpaid Garcon, Morgan is a guy that barely played and is still a big question mark. I like the Eddie Royal move, since he at least has shown success in Shanahan's system.

Redskins will contend for the NFC East next year. Shanahan is a good coach and he knows what he's doin. If RG3 is anything like Cam was his rookie season that offense is going to be BEASTLY. Shanahans offenses always can run the rock but know with Moss, Garcon, Royal, Cooley & Davis.........whoa those are def some weapons. They have decent defense going on there too. Don't be surprised if we might have see them in the post season next year.

then again it is the Redskins so they will go 5-11

if all three are signed it's not awful, it seems like there are going to be 3 WRs out the door in Gaffney, Moss and Brandon Banks and that SEEMS to be why they are going nuts like this, but they still should be after other things than WR, they need a guard and a right tackle and some defense, mainly a safety.

pierre garcon was just so effective without peyton manning.

josh morgan is as proven as david gettis.

eddie royal is pretty good, but he's small and not going to be an "easy" target for RG3 to bail out on.

Garcon: 70 catches for 950 yrds whe he had no one throwing to him and Regiie Wayne on the other side. I think thats pretty good.

Go look at Steve Smiths stats when Clausen was throwin to him and then it might make sense to you

So they signed a bunch of guys that were #3 WRs on their old teams? LMAO! Leave it to little Danny Snyder!

Garcon is a number 2 who could likely be a number 1, not a number 3, that was Austin Collie and Anthony Gonzalez.

Josh Morgan was ACTUALLY the 2nd WR, then he got hurt. the only one you got right is Royal who is a 3rd WR, the rest were 2nds and one of them played with poor QBs last year.

    • Well, they're both in the same league (if you will). During preseason, Fitz went 3/3 & Sauls went 5/6, but of course Sauls was 4/4 last night (including one 50+). Both were Lou Groza Award finalists. I believe Fitz made two 55+ yarders last season, while Sauls led the nation with three. Fitz was 13/13 (💯) while Sauls was 21/24 (87.5). Fitz was a 3rd-Team AP All-American, while Sauls was a PFF All-American.  Career-wise, Fitz was 58/74 (78.4), while Sauls was 52/64 (81.3). I wish that I could see the attempts and knew the depth of yardage. I wish that we could compare practice kicks during their training camps, but we can't. Maybe someone with a PFF/CFF account can give that Basically it's just a matter of belief I guess. Seeing dude knock down four FGs and go perfect during a pressure-filled game for him is damned impressive if you ask me. I don't believe that Fitzgerald could do that.  That being said, I'd have to know more. I will say that it may be worth mentioning that we seem to like PFF this year and Sauls being a PFF All-American may be notable. Now that being said, the Panthers may not be even considering Sauls.
    • Ive said it 1000x times on here.  Our 2025 season will be dictated by the first 4 games.  poo the bed there and lose all confidence and momentum, we win 5 games maybe.  Go 2-2, 3-1 we got a look at 7/8 wins
    • I basically made almost the exact predictions on a phone call with a buddy about 3 weeks ago. I really do expect Evero gone before the seasons end, Young to just not able to get over the hump enough and DC to head into next season on a VERY hot seat.
