Wright keeps getting picked on and abused...time to use Tavon Young or somone else outside with Jimmy

Young is so small that I think he'd be killed if he were to cover the average WR. a 5'9 183lb CB probably won't do well against a 6'2 WR.

Tavon Young is 5'9". Tavon Young also don't care that he is 5'9". He just wants your lunch money.

I think it was a CB that the Steeler's reached for in the draft last year.  They had Maxx Williams on their radar and when we

took him, they drafted the small CB.

Webb is only 5'-10"

Try him or Davis on the outside. Desean Jackson or Garcon will eat Wright up. The Redskins have a good enough line to provide protection and run the ball.

What did you think of him outside today? I thought he outplayed Smith, but both guys played well.
