Originally selected in the first round (15th overall) by Washington in 2001, Gardner, 27, compiled his best campaign in 2002 when he caught a career-high 71 passes for 1,006 yards and eight touchdowns. As a rookie, he earned NFC Offensive Player of the Week honors after producing six catches for 208 yards, including a career-long 85-yard touchdown reception, versus Carolina in Week 6. Gardner, who is a native of Jacksonville, FL, attended Clemson from 1997-2000 and finished his career with 166 catches for 2,498 yards and 13 touchdowns. He averaged 18.1 yards per reception on 58 catches for 1,050 yards and seven touchdowns as a senior to garner first-team All-ACC recognition. http://www.panthers.com/news/newsroomNewsDetail.jsp?id=19310 Well it looks like the Redskins are screwed yet again.
