Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The 5-11, 195-pound Roberts was a 2010 third-round pick, he has 182 catches for 2,123 yards and 11 touchdowns for his career. Roberts, who clocked a 4.36-second 40-yard dash out of college, last season recorded 43 catches for 471 yards and two touchdowns. As Post staffer Mike Jones notes, receiver ranked among the Redskins’ needs with Santana Moss and Josh Morgan both free agents now. Washington hopes to add more weapons to the offense directed by Robert Griffin III. Pierre Garcon returns as the top wide receiver. Roberts' arrival could be a sign that Moss' run in Washington is over.
