Redskins | Return of the Speedy Smurfs

Joseph White, of the Associated Press, reports the Washington Redskins receiving corps has been creating quite a buzz at practice. Newcomer WRs Santana Moss, David Patten and Kevin Dyson join incumbent WRs James Thrash, Antonio Brown and Taylor Jacobs for a unit that could win quite a few relay races at the local track. "We've probably got the fastest receiver corps in the NFL," RB Clinton Portis said. Head coach Joe Gibbs hopes that speed will help generate the deep passing game that was missing last year. It is also a small in height corps, Dyson is the only one of the six over 6 feet tall. "We're pretty fast. But we don't feel like that. We feel like we're underdogs," Patten said, responding to talk the Redskins would once again miss the playoffs.
