“@kett21dc “@IvanCarterCSN Garçon exactly what you want with RG III. Great route runner, always where he's supposed to be, good YAC. No knucklehead factor.””

[Hitman21ST]

So who wears 85 now?

[Unforgiven]

To the people complaining about Garcon drops.

2011 stats

Garcon - 52% catch rate

V Jax - 52%

Calvin Johnson - 61%

Larry Fitzgerald 52%

I'm not saying he's those guys, but you can't throw down that catch rate # as some great black mark.

"Pierre Garçon

I wanted you all to hear it from me 1st before u saw it on the news... I will be signing with the Washington Redskins and I'm very excited about the opportunity in front of me.

I want to thank all Colts fans from the bottom of my heart for all the love and support you've shown me the past 4 years and I hope that at some level u will still follow my career, as I will continue to share my life with you on here..."

OH HELL YEAH!!! He was the WR I hoped we'd get, cheaper than VJ, younger, great stats with ***** QB, can do wonders for RG3.

[Daaskins]

Garcon baby!!!

[skinsfan242]

Garcon is signing witht he Redskins! On his facebook!

[Skins199021]

really like the garcon signing, I wanted him, posted that in the WR thread a while ago

[Conn]

Great signing, and probably for half the cost of VJ, as much as I wanted him. Bring in Royal and Winston and I'll **** myself in excitement!

Garcon to skins

confirmed

[TaylorPickSix]

Say hello to RG3's new Kendall Wright!

[Always A Commander Never A Captain]

People pretty much confirming Winston to the Dolphins is almost a sure thing:

Unsurprisingly, former #Texans OT Eric Winston will visit the Miami #Dolphins; played college at #MiamiFL and ex-coach Mike Sherman in MIA.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Please say it ain't so. The right side of our line needs so much help!

[SKlNZfan24]

Welcome to DC Pierre!

[rockfan7224]

Awesome, glad we stayed the FA course.

[Champskins]

Guess Ill have to get used to it... not a Garcon fan at all... hope we get a few more signings to help out the team. Sign Fletcher and Carriker already!

[SkinsTillIDie]

I'm not a big fan of spending a lot on this WR class, but what we will need is speed. RG3 will be able to keep plays going and needs guys that can get downfield for when that happens.

Precisely this. This is why Jackson would've been an enormous benefit. And where Gaffney is more or less useless after 3-4 seconds, once the play breaks down. At least, relative to the dynamism of Garcon

With Garcon's elite deep speed (are there 10 faster starting receivers in the NFL?) and Hankerson's Hakeem Nicks-like potential, as the big, athletic receiver with an enormous target radius, it would be a formidable duo with a diverse set of talents that - in theory - would work quite well together

[Rufus T Firefly]

Garcon's done. Not thrilled with that, but prefer it to Jackson, I guess.

I'm a fan of Garcon. Always have been. 6'2", good speed and had a decent year last year with terrible QB's. He's an upgrade to this WR corps.

[Crazy Levi]

Awesome. Good character guy, and YOUNG. I know many of you would prefer someone five years older and with a propensity for DUI convictions who is looking for his last cash-in contract, but THIS is the kind of guy you build a team around.

TK ‏ @TKextremeskins

still got 2 up at Goodell. mlm mlm“@kcclyburn: Garcon to the 'Skins. One down.”

[Idaho fan]

I think Garcon is a decent pick up but he is a #2. We need(ed) a #1.

Anyway, welcome to the Skins Garcon.
