2012 Outlook: Solid/Safe Pick

Last updated on Aug-03-2012 by Ben Standig

Garcon amazingly nearly totaled 1,000 yards in the dreadful Colts offense last season. The Redskns paid a steep cost to land the free agent, who now must prove his skills translate into the number one target role. Despite his real life price tag and run after the catch skills, learning a new system and a rookie quarterback makes Garcon no lock for WR2 status. However, he's also the only Redskins receiver with a seemingly defined role. Let's split the difference and call him a high-end WR3 with a chance for more.

2012 Mock Draft Results

Month	Position	Franchise/Comments
MyFantasyLeague Expert Draft May 2, 2012	8.07	Footballguys
2012 Experts Mock Draft (June) June 6, 2012 - June 25, 2012	8.06	FFToolbox.com (Ben) - Was hoping Witten would hang on a bit longer, but also not sure why Garcon is still around. Yes, the Redskins receiving hierarchy remains a touch sketchy and I'm a tad concerned about Garcon transitioning from a WR2 to WR1. Still he figures to produce and have some nice games for this format.
2012 Experts Mock Draft (July) July 16 - 27	7.11	FFToolbox.com (Ben) - The one Redskins wide receiver with a defined role. If you believe RGIII produces as a rookie - which clearly one of mock drafters does - than projecting Garcon finishing the season higher than his current ADP is not a stretch.
2012 Experts Mock Draft (August) Aug 14 - 24	6.03	KFFL.com - Not ordinarily my type of guy, but again, in a situation about which I can't complain. Torrey Smith or Garcon? Wasn't an easy call for me, but it's clear that Garcon has developed a relationship with his rookie QB that should pay off, and he's the most dangerous receiver on a team that may have to pass more often than it'd like.
