I think big Trent might be right. Who better at just getting open than J R-uh?
Williams: Jordan Reed 'hands down' best receiving TE
http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000601355/article/williams-jordan-reed-hands-down-best-receiving-te
Jordan Reed is the reason the Washington Redskins sit atop the NFC East.
That un-nuanced take paints with a broad brush. It's also true.
Sunday's 24-21 win over the Chicago Bears came thanks to Reed's hands, feet and shoulders. The tight end was unguardable, making linebackers look like rooted plants and bowling over any defensive back who got in his way. On the Redskins' three touchdown drives, Reed had catches of 17 yards, 28 yards and 32 yards to set up the scores.
To call Reed a scoring catalyst is putting it mildly.
"As I've said before, and said every week, I don't know nobody who can guard that young man," left tackle Trent Williams said, via the Washington Post. "When he's on, he's on and it's tough to stop. I think he's definitely the best receiving tight end in the NFL, hands down. I think he's having a Pro Bowl year."
Whoa, whoa, whoa. While Reed has been fantastic, there is Gronk and then there is everyone else. Greg Olsen, Tyler Eifert and Delanie Walker could also claim a seat at the best pass-catching tight end table ahead of Reed.
Regardless of rankings, no tight end in 2015 outside of Gronk is as vital to his team's playoff hopes as Reed is for Washington. In a Week 12 win over the Giants, Reed had 98 yards on eight caches. On Sunday, he had 120 on nine and a touchdown. In the loss to Dallas between those performances, he had three catches for 33.
Kirk Cousins needs an active, productive Reed for the offense to function. Shut down Reed and the whole operation goes kaput.
Finally healthy for a long stretch, Reed is proving to be a game-changing weapon for Washington. With a contest against the Buffalo Bills, and divisional matchups with Philadelphia and Dallas remaining, the Redskins need the dynamite tight end to keep dominating like he did Sunday if they are to take home the division crown. -
Size-Gronk
Elusiveness-Reed
Hands-Tie
Route running-Reed EASILY
Speed-Close but probably Gronk
Jump ? -Gronk
Gronk a better blocker but as receivers they are very close, and Reed is probably better at take a short pass and creating YAC. -
Where my #HTTR fans at? We ballin!
You like that. -
And we gon act like Kirk not playin like a franchise QB? He been lowkey one of the best QBs in the league over the last 2 months.
-
Kirk & co. have been playing well.
The Defense has surprised me how we been playing better with injury attrition. That says a lot about Joe Barry adjusting. Turtle-ing up and going soft zone when we have a lead my only complaint on him so far.
-
I thought Deangelo Hall was dead but I sho saw that ? out there today.

He's definitely improved over the last couple months. Which is more than you can say about RG3 last year hurt or not. He put the team at a great position to make the playoffs & more than likely he'll get paid this offseason. -
How yall feel about this. Kirk feelin himself too much? I could see him throwin 4 picks next week and no one liking that.

He trademarked it.
I don't mind it, just like I didn't when Robert did it.
The hypocritical media on the other hand...
We'll see. -
Im glad yall going to the playoffs, yall need it
but its still ? yall coach and Kirk
I think Robert could of gotten similar results. -

Gotcha. The media is probably part of the reason why he did it, ESPN ran that ? in the ground. Had a homeboy that was at the game yesterday, he said the crowd was chanting it. Whatever, just live up to it. He balled out yesterday, got nothin negative to say about him. Don't punk out on us now in Philthy. -
He'll likely get an extension btw, seen JLC report yesterday before the game that we're trying to get it done asap. No word on any kinda number yet.
-
I'm not necessarily gonna pay too much attention to the actual number, it's gonna be something they can easily get out of should things go sour. Similar to McNabbs old deal here, and what SF did with Kaep.

Need to lock up D. Jack .....
When D. Jack and J. Reed are on the field, Kirk plays like a top QB. He is accurate as hell on his deep ball and crossing routes.
They NEED to lock up D Jack for at least another year or two. He's too much of a game-breaker to lose. -
As for the media I think the DC media gon DC media. Just win games and ? all that other ? .

We have to pay him and Reed. Garçon is up also but no way we can bring them all back. Should be an interesting off season and glad we aren't ? by the cap penalty like we once were. -
I appreciate Pierre. But he'd have to take a steep paycut to play here next year IMO. He's scheduled to make $10.2 million witha $13 million cap hit if he plays Week 1. (I believe)
-
So .... he's prolly getting $19-21 mill.
Crazy. Two months ago he may have been worth six figures.
