Now we can watch him drop RG3′s passes instead of Luck’s! Redskins overpaid big time.

Yeah he might drop a few but he also catches some that you wouldn’t expect him to.

I think that Garcon cost less and was easily accessible.

I am sure he got money, but he wasn’t going to get the really big money.

Leonard Hankerson is going to be the Redskins #1 receiver when he’s healthy. Hankerson is a beast.

Because he signed on the spot, even though there are other teams that could use a receiver. It will be very interesting to see his contract terms. The knee-jerk reaction is to be happy if you’re a Skins fan…but the reality is this could be a very bad move. We will see.

Yes he did. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Austin Collie traded either.

Well they still have Hankerson and Davis and with RG III and his running ability the redzone should become less of a problem.

DC is where free agents come to die! Most of his catches last year were when teams were already up by 27 points.

Signed it on the spot, it not about the money I’m sure!.

Pierre is a nice compliment #2 WR who wanted #1 money whether he was worth that much or not. The Colts are completing the clean slate to then rebuild a young squad around Luck.

Sorry to see him go, but glad the Colts didn’t overreach.

WOW. The Redskins are really scary now.

Are you people serious?

Yes they are and they’re about to get scarier now that Josh Morgan is signing with them…

Helu, RGIII, Garcon, Moss, F. Davis, Morgan – that’s lot of weapons.

Good luck without Reggie Wayne pulling double coverages from you. Good luck Alvin Harper, I mean Pierre, I’m sure you’ll be paid handsomely.

“Doesn’t that max them out on cap space?”

How so, with the 18 million hit we still have about 17 million in cap space, not a lot but more than half the league.

Colts WR depth chart:

1. Austin Collie

—————–

Didn’t he play with John Beck at BYU? I’ll bet Kyle was standing on the table begging them to trade for Collie…

Literally within a minute, Bill Polian was on TV talking about the possible signing, saying what a good size the guy was at 6’2″ 200+ lbs(not sure if he said 205 or 210).

I’m excited for P. Garson catching passes from RG3.
He took alot flack for drops in Indy, but I think he’ll work through that.
His speed and yards after are awesome to watch.
Expect to be entertained Skins fans.
