With the Washington Redskins facing uncertain futures with Desean Jackson and Pierre Garcon entering contract years they get a player who likely wins the Biletnikoff Award if he doesn’t get injured this year at TCU.

Doctson ran much faster than anticipated at the Combine with a 4.5 and has the incredible production to add to his impressive measurables.

He has shown the ability to high point the football and has great leadership skills and great character. Jay Gruden gets a receiver who averaged nearly 17 yards per reception last year and should be an excellent fit in the offense. He caught everything in his vicinity at the combine and at TCU and now will do the same in the nation’s capital.
