We should try to sign a guy like Garcia. He may be a bit too light for the potential pounding he may take here and will never see his career high totals ever again because he doesn't have a T.O to throw to.

I love Leftwich. when we played Pittsburgh, I knew we were in trouble the minute he came in. I never understood why Jacksonville gave up on him. He has a wind up delivery that is ridiculous, but he can get the ball to his receivers. Maybe Zorn can make his delivery a little better and he would be awesome. As for the Pittsburgh line being better than ours, that is not the case. Their line sucked.

I started a thread about this very subject not too long ago and everyone went nuts. I don't see why he can't be an upgrade over Collins. The only thing that gets me is why Collins was never given a shot even after he took us to the playoffs?
I'm in favor of Byron but only as a backup for this season. I'd be happy one way or the other. I like Collins too but he is getting long in the tooth and he's not in the team's future.

ok i shouldnt have said there o-line was better. but the few times he played last year, and one of those games was against us he had all the time in the world to pass the ball because we couldnt get pressure on any qb last year. i am just saying with our o-line being suspect with his slow deilvery he would not be an effective QB.

I remember that, and I think it was because everyone thought right away you were saying he should replace Campbell.

I like Leftwich but I really don't know what he offers above Campbell.

I am cool with swaping collins for a cheaper and much younger leftwich.
Collins is ok....but he poses no threat to start whatsoever.
If they want to push Campbell to the next level...give him some decent competition.

That dude is laid back too...just like Campbell...there are a lot of similarities between the 2....I am not sold on Collins being able to rock the west coast offense either...Collins throws to spots...not to receivers...so if neither are west coast system guys...why not go younger, cheaper and with more recent experience for the backup?

You guys gung ho on Colt are crazy...this guy is in no condition to start...maybe after 2 more preseasons he could be a decent number 2.

Leftwich is not a WCO guy it would be a waste.
Going after Garcia would be a waste of time as well.

Collins know his role is to just run the offense until JC comes back or Colt improves and takes the number two job.

As a matter of fact the only free agent that is not OL or DL they should consider is maybe Rudy Johnson.

Yes, throwing to a spot is the WCO.

I agree, I couldnt believe all of the folks calling for Colt. I think Colt has the potential to be a fine QB one day. But not today.
After all we have been through in Redkins Nation we owe it to ourselves and JC to leave him be and let him deveolop.
This will be his season of truth.

WTF! Did i miss something...when did the FO decide QB was such an issue for us? It's like something happened all the sudden and Danny/Vinny whoever became hellbent on changing things around.

i just think they have lost faith in JC, but come on Leftwich is just a backup, campbell would beat him out anyway! What's this mean for Brennan?
