Looks like he has a metaphorically steep climb to make the roster; however you never know when injuries strike and you see these guys get time.

Haha! We are the BucSkins! Lmfao 
I'm thinking he would make the team as our #5 guy. He certainly has talent but might be a bit out of shape.
Footy was right though, he's going to be in a battle for that #5 spot with a group of decent wrs.
The media has been saying Anthony Armstrong is looking good in camp so far. This should be fun competition this camp! 
I do like Lavar's list but AAA won't let him have that spot easily.

Briscoe is talented as heck and wish him nothing but the best, but let me tell you I hope this is a wake up call
He partied too much, and was more worried about ironing things out with his GF on NBA Wives rather then being at OTA's and with Freeman learning the new system.
He could be good for you guys though, the possesion guy that has actually produced.
It was purely a numbers game for us, with V-Jax, Williams and Benn having significant invested, Parkers big year, and Underwood bringing a different dynamic it was kinda coming...
Best of luck guys!

Lavar, what makes you think we're only keeping 6 WR's on the active roster?
We had 8 all of last season & now we are running the "Pistol", which from what I understand...will require quite a bit of fresh bodies coming in. Specially if we are running any kind of tempo like that of Baylor.
I see us carrying 8 like last year & I agree with you. I think Briscoe makes the team as well.
I see it as: (in Pistol)
--------------------------
Garcon (#1)
Hankerson (#1 or #2)
Moss (#1, #2 or #3)
Morgan (#2 or #3)
Armstrong (#2 or #3)
Briscoe (basically replaces Gaffney) (#3)
Austin (#3) (if anyone on this list is gone...it's Austin..imo)
Banks (KR/PR/Gadget) (#3 or RB)
And with Aldrick Robinson going back to the PS, since he's eligible.
And lets not forget...It will mostly be Davis or Cooley in that TE spot in the Pistol, but having a guy like Niles Paul is like having a #4 WR on the field)
In obvious passing situations of course.
So for me, I think we keep 8 WR's or at LEAST..7, on the active roster.
Having fresh bodies who can play those WR spots, will be overwhelming to defenses keeping the same starting CB's & Safeties on the field.
I love what I'm seeing from this team.
HTTR!!

1. We will keep 3 qbs, not 2 like lat year
2. We need depth along the OL. The last 7 years the Washington redskins have had problems with injuries along the line and not having enough or good depth for when the starter gets hurt. Like oh let's say Jammal Bown. This team should keep 9 or 10 OL, not 7 or 8 wrs again.

Ace-
I believe last year was more of an anomaly as far as the wide receiver position goes. They had no true guy they thought was a #1 and they were searching for playmakers, not to mention they didn't want to cut guys like Hankerson and Paul for fear of losing them when trying to push them to the practice squad. Then again I could be completely wrong Ace.

I drooled on myself when I looked at that formation and thought of Garcon, Moss, Davis, Griffin(!!!!) Cooley/(Paul!!) and Hankerson/(Morgan) lined up on the field. That is Legit weaponry!! and we have a cpl Nice reserves too!

He had 6 td's so if anything thats interesting. |
He also struggled to do much else and as the bucs fan pointed out was not focused on football this offseason and showed up to camp out of shape.
| Quote: | Briscoe said Saturday his domestic issues have been resolved, although he did not go into details.
“I always want to be around my team, but the situation I had back at the house, I felt was more important,” Briscoe said. “I made the mandatory (workouts). I missed a couple of voluntaries. It’s tough, especially coming off the season I did have. I felt I had good security, but things happen.” |
http://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/redskins/new-redskins-wr-briscoe-eager-for-fresh-start-personal-life-helped-cost-him-job-with-bucs/2012/07/28/gJQAkFQRGX_story.html
35 receptions and 387 yds won't cut it on our team... Those #s certainly aren't on Garçon, Moss or Morgan's level and not Armstrongs either IMO

Love the pickup! He might have came in out of shape but in Tampa honestly he ouy produced all their guys in the redzone! And he is sapose to be a slow guy off the line clearly he knows how to score! We have had issues with scoring! So not having alot of yards and he seemed to,come around at the end of the year for pointless games and was outpreforming all WRs. He had talent coming out of Kansas but he ran a horrible 40 time and he wasnt a refined rt runner coming from the spread. Love the sighning because maybe its hard to show up for a team that has a history of using and abusing there own that just went out and got a #1 guy and he got knocked down too 4 and he felt lke he shouldnt be a number 4. Kids got talent and with our shaping up to be GB style WR corp this guy could really be like another TE out wide working the middle that can catch and run threw DBs
