The Washington Redskins elected to go with the veteran quarterback, Alex Smith, whose window isn’t going to be open much longer.

So if the Redskins realistically want to win a Super Bowl during Smith’s tenure, they’ll want to provide him with more than adequate weaponry on the outside to bolster Smith’s passing efforts. Especially with Jamison Crowder hitting free agency and Josh Doctson not quite showing himself to be a reliable option.

At 6-foot-4 and 213 pounds, Arizona State wide receiver N’Keal Harry is a big-bodied, physical target capable of making some pretty ridiculous catches. He’s an excellent red-zone threat and certainly wins the key one-on-one matchups at all levels.

Harry doesn’t possess breakout speed, though. He’ll have to rely on his size and hands over anything else.

But with Smith able to place the ball in small windows as well as anyone else, it’s not a bad route to take. Besides, Smith doesn’t typically use the deep threat anyway.
