Your thoughts on Malcolm Kelly, Ryan Torain, and Kareem Moore?
All three have some ability but are dogged by continuing injury problems. Is this the year we have enough depth and rookies where it makes sense to release them?
The Redskins will keep Hankerson and Austin at WR which makes things tough for Kelly as Moss and Gaffney aren't going anywhere.
RB? Hightower seems to have taken the mantle to start. Helu and Royster have been productive and are Shanahan/Allen picks here in Washington working on low salary deals. Keiland Williams if retained can double as depth at RB. Torain looks to be on the outside.
Safety? The team needs depth at this position, but a veteran who can stabilize things behind the starters. Moore has been injured for a second consecutive season with what appears now could be a chronic knee problem. He and Chris Horton, drafted in 2008, are no longer 22 year old rookies the team can wait on. I would think about dipping into free agency during the cut downs and taking a veteran to bridge us to 2012 and perhaps going with Gomes as a developmental guy for the long-term who can contribute on teams right away.
