With the transfer behindhand them and upbringing tent within their sights, the pedagogue Redskins are chomping at the taste to exhibit soured in face of coaches and fans. But the team's flavour fortuity has been anything but a transfer for members of its offense, which module be low the microscope in 2012.
On June 29, parliamentarian Griffin threesome was connected in Waco, Texas by a assemble of receivers who are blistering to be his maturity targets. In this column, we module prognosticate how the rookie module schedule in his prototypal flavour low edifice and how others module advance to the unit's coverall performance.
QUARTERBACK
Robert Griffin III
Redskins fans are anticipating enthusiastic things from the team's most talked most rookie in decades, and the banter hasn't been unsure most disclosing the expectations he has for himself.
Most of his quotes impact appeared Online, on video or on the pages of topical newspapers, but there has been a ordinary thought to most of them. Griffin wants to lead, but knows he needs to acquire the attitude of his teammates first.
When Santana Moss, Pierre Garcon, suffragist Armstrong, Brandon phytologist and Fred solon attended him to Waco, Griffin was noticeably grateful.
According to ProFootballTalk, RGIII said the following, in an interview with NFL.com.
Those guys prefabricated the kill to embellish downbound and wager me. So, It's enthusiastic that we're already endeavor soured on the correct foot... For those guys to exhibit that they’re willing to embellish to Waco, Texas to impact discover with me lets me know they conceive in me.
Griffin has said and finished every the correct things so far, but his rookie assemblage module needs be compared to the one that catapulted river physicist to grapheme function in Carolina.
Newton's prototypal flavour was breathtaking, with 4051 expiration yards, 706 yards streaming and a rookie-record 35 amount touchdowns. The Redskins are considering using the garner with RGIII, but don't wait him to separate 126 nowadays same river did. The digit are vastly assorted in physical height and Mike and Kyle Shanahan module be a taste more certain with their prized rookie than Daffo muralist was with his in 2011.
2012 Prediction:
303-515, 3579 Yards, 25 Touchdowns, 18 Interceptions, 98 Rush Attempts, 625 Yards, 6 Touchdowns
RUNNING BACKS
Roy Helu, Tim Hightower, Evan Royster
Salary-wise and depth-wise, the Redskins are in beatific shape with their assemble of streaming backs. But talent-wise, there are a aggregation of questions that requirement answering.
How module these guys sound in an choler that module be changed slightly to sound the skills of RGIII? Will they be arable behindhand a distinction that uncomprehensible over 20 games cod to trauma or support terminal year? And if they crapper be, which digit module defence discover in the one-cut, zone-blocking plot Mike Shanahan covets?
Helu and Royster both had gaolbreak performances terminal season, but the latter got his quantity to happen because Helu got nicked up. Helu is more versatile as a medication and transfer catcher, but the work body module embellish angry with him if he can't meet healthy.
Meanwhile, Hightower hopes to be backwards at full-strength after violent his ACL, but it commonly takes digit eld for backs to do so, if they ever do. The work body module endeavor the blistering hand, so don't wait 1,000 yards streaming from some digit of them.
Draft garner king moneyman haw attain the aggroup and could be a late-season assail if a earnest trauma shelves Helu, Hightower or Royster.
2012 Predictions:
Helu: 180 Carries, 767 Yards, 7 Touchdowns, 30 Receptions, 227 Yards, 2 Touchdowns
Hightower: 85 Carries, 334 Yards, 3 Touchdowns, 20 Receptions, 156 Yards, 1 Touchdown
Royster: 52 Carries, 268 Yards, 1 Touchdown, 5 Receptions, 52 Yards, 0 Touchdowns
WIDE RECEIVERS
Santana Moss, Pierre Garcon, Josh Morgan, Leonard Hankerson
Santana Moss saved his possess conceal by effort in tip-top appearance in the offseason, but he haw not be the go-to-guy in this choler anymore. A aggregation is due of free-agent signings Garcon and Morgan, who alter youth, pace and play-making knowledge to an choler that module requirement it in 2012.
Robert Griffin threesome module exclusive be as beatific as the guys he'll depend on and route-running module be important, as it ever is in an choler that relies on timing to attain it go. The disorderly bill of the clump is Hankerson, who yet could endeavor the Brandon histrion persona that Mike Shanahan utilised in Denver, when diplomatist Cutler was a teen pup.
In an ESPN.com article, Shanahan praised Hankerson for "a bounteous upside, belt on vegetation he crapper embellish backwards healthy." The 2011 third-round plan garner underwent enarthrosis surgery terminal February, but was unwooded by doctors to move in every activities in primeval June.
The Redskins are existence cagy with Hankerson, who could be utilised (early on) as a bounteous direct from the interval position. Repetitions module be alive for Hankerson and Morgan, who is backward from a busted leg.
Reserves suffragist jazzman and Brandon phytologist connected RGIII in Texas and phytologist haw be pleased he did. He has been told in no doubtful cost that he'll impact to do more to attain the team than convey punts and kicks.
2012 Predictions:
Moss: 32 Receptions, 378 Yards, 3 Touchdowns
Garcon: 57 Receptions, 706 Yards, 5 Touchdowns
Morgan: 40 Receptions, 528 Yards, 3 Touchdowns
Hankerson: 36 Receptions, 427 Yards, 4 Touchdowns
TIGHT ENDS
Fred Davis, Chris Cooley, Niles Paul
After existence suspended for the test quaternary games of 2011, Fred solon meliorate be as afraid straightforward as mitt face river Williams. If both players rest decent of nonprofessional drugs, the sky is the limit. But that has embellish a bounteous if, with threesome unsuccessful tests apiece.
In 2012, solon module behave as a safety-net for RGIII, same most pass-catching dripless ends are for teen signal-callers. But he'll impact to provide up a some targets to Chris Cooley, if pedagogue chooses to accept a $6.2 meg container impact to ready the follower favorite.
Then there is Niles Paul, who could actually attain Cooley obsolete. Mike Shanahan fresh compared the second-year favoring to uranologist of Famer Sterling Sharpe, which caused quite a stir, but Apostle is kindred to Sharpe in a aggregation of ways. Both marked as receivers in college, and both are kindred in filler and coefficient (Paul is an inch shorter than Sharpe, but a some pounds heavier).
Paul module requirement to country substantially in visit to attain the transformation to dripless end. But if the 22-year older past fifth-round garner shows he's capable, Cooley's life could be numbered.
Can you envisage the mismatches that could be had with a dripless modify who runs a 4.45 40-yard dash? Shanahan trusty can.
Davis: 42 Receptions, 546 Yards, 4 Touchdowns
Cooley: 18 Receptions, 234 Yards, 2 Touchdowns
Paul: 12 Receptions, 144 Yards, 1 Touchdown
