The Washington Redskins will look significantly different at receiver next year. The question is, will they be better?

After losing Pierre Garcon and DeSean Jackson, the Redskins have signed Terrelle Pryor and now Brian Quick. If nothing else, they have a taller receiving corps, as Pryor is 6-foot-4 and Quick is 6-foot-3. They’ll also have 6-foot-2 Josh Doctson healthy -- they hope.

It’s a different kind of group, one that lacks an outside burner such as Jackson. He was the NFL’s most dangerous deep threat, but he also was considered limited as a route-runner. Still, he was a weapon who could change games with one play. It’ll be tough to duplicate that, but size has been hard for the Redskins to find as well. Jabar Gaffney in 2011 was their last leading receiver who was at least 6-foot-2. Rod Gardner was another at that height who was a primary target, from 2001-04. And their last leading receiver who was 6-foot-3: Michael Westbrook in 2001.

Size is one thing; production is another. And that’s what this group must have. Here’s a look at the team's top six receivers as of now (all stats courtesy of ESPN Stats & Information):

Terrelle Pryor: He caught 14 passes that traveled at least 15 yards in the air (out of 46 targets). Garcon, by comparison, caught 17 such passes. But Pryor’s eight catches that went 20 or more yards tied for 16th in the league -- and they were just three fewer than Crowder and Garcon had combined. Whether that will continue depends on how Pryor is used; the Redskins returned last season to using Garcon on in-breaking routes, a strength of his. Pryor will have to work on his yards after the catch, having averaged just 2.79 yards last year (138th among receivers). Garcon was the worst last year among the team's primary targets in this area, at 4.39 per catch. That’s a next step in Pryor’s evolution at receiver. But Pryor, still considered a raw receiver, is in a better situation than a year ago, and that should help him develop.

Josh Doctson: He’s as much the one to watch as any. The Redskins viewed him as a top-10 talent in the 2016 draft, which is why they didn’t pass on him when they had the chance at 22. Don’t rule him out just because he missed last year with an Achilles injury. Of course, that nagging issue must be solved or, well, you will dismiss him. But Doctson worked himself from a barely-recruited high school senior into a first-round pick.

Jamison Crowder: The Redskins can’t wait to get him the ball more than last year. They never liked taking him out of the game, even if it was a one-receiver set. As of now, he’ll play outside in their two-receiver looks and in the slot when they use three. There are questions about every other receiver on their roster, but not with him. Therefore, he’ll play quite a bit. The question will be about his durability. He’s listed at 5-foot-8, 182 pounds, so they can’t overextend him (and he still returns punts).

Brian Quick: Like Garcon, he averaged 4.39 yards after the catch. But he ranked 127th in his percentage of catches per target (53.9). He dropped four passes last year and was chastised in the preseason by then-coach Jeff Fisher for his hands. In terms of catch percentage, Jackson was the worst among the Redskins’ primary targets, at 60.9. Quick caught three passes last year that traveled at least 20 yards in the air. At best right now, he’s the Redskins' fourth receiver, but he is a former second-round pick (2012) with 105 career receptions and 10 touchdowns who flashes on occasion. He was off to a strong start in 2014 before tearing his rotator cuff, which Fisher once said threatened his career. Consider him depth. But he has size and can jump. It's best to have realistic expectations and see if his game matures; he needs to improve his route-running.

Ryan Grant: Yes, he’s a good route-runner (he really is). And coach Jay Gruden hasn’t given up on him at all. But he dropped 5.9 percent of the passes thrown his way last year and caught just nine of 17 targets. He’s not fast. But perhaps with more chances comes more confidence; sometimes that’s all it takes to become productive. He just hasn’t shown a whole lot to date, but he’ll receive better chances to prove his coaches right.

Maurice Harris: He played 10 games with Washington last season, but one advantage he held over others -- height -- is gone. Still, Harris showed excellent hands by catching eight of the 11 passes thrown his way. He’s worth developing. And he’s still 6-foot-3.
