Prospect means nothing unless you show something during the process of you being a player in the NFL. Colt & Chase were Heisman candidates. We just cut one of them and put the other one on IR. So what are you really saying? Woodson on the other hand had many accolades also. Could have sworn at one point he was in Heisman contention. So just to say we should sign Brohm because he was a top prospect is ridiculous.
Also if in case you haven't notice. The Redskins aren't into grooming QB's from rookies. Our fan base and ownership are too impatient and we will never use the word "rebuilding" for that matter.
Mason will contribute to special teams "he has no choice". He is our insurance policy because Betts hasn't been productive and Rock doesn't really service us at RB. So the need for him being on the roster is more pressing. Especially if anything happens to Portis. He will get just as many touches if CP gets injured as Betts in my opinion. Betts is good for catching the ball out of the backfield. That's why he is here and because he is a vet and knows the offense. Other than that he is not a threat at RB. That is why Mason is here.
agreed. good post.

God please no more quarterback talk. Colt couldn't beat out Todd Collins for the backup spot with the whole staff backing him and Brian Brohm got cut by the Packers despite the fact that he was a second round pick. He must have been so bad that they figured he didn't even have enough potential to keep around for their practice squad. Give JC the year and if it doesn't work out, go after a top tier talent not waiver fodder like CB and Brohm.
AMEN! I really hope, above all, that this preseason ends all talk about the QB position for at least 6 months. We've got our #1 and #2 QB set in stone for the 2009 season. If there's a need in 2010 then Shanahan will bring in whomever he wants (I'm on the record stating it will be Derek Anderson BTW) but let's all hope, pray and plan that we won't be having that discussion next spring.

Agreed. There are plenty of things to discuss now that the season is starting. Let's leave the "what ifs" for the offseason.

I think that this would be the best signing we could make. We could cut Williams or Batiste and sign him. For that matter cut Mason. This guy was a second round draft choice and he has played fairly well this preseason. Then next year we would have him and Colt and maybe even Woodson competing for the one, two or three spots depending on how Campbell does this season. Another guy we could sign is Jamon Meredith of GB's practice squad. He could develop into a good left tackle.
OMG put down your crack pipe. Brohm sucked this pre season and that's what got him cut. Like it or not JC is our best option this year and probably next year at QB. Woodson, Colt and Brohm competing for #1 next year?? Yeah right. lol.

Exactly why we must sign Brock Berlin before week 2; and Timmy Chang before week 3
Finally a call for Timmy Chang! With Chang and Colt next year, we can implement the Polynesian Coast Offense!

Well, he was a top talent in last years draft. If you watched the games he was under tremendous pressure when he played bad. He would be a real value at this point. Give me a break, if you think that Batiste or Mason are better or offer more potential then Brohm. Jason played good two games and still could not throw a TD pass. This is his last chance to show he belongs in DC and it comes by default. I am pulling for him, but his production has been dismal, in the red zone. Brett Farve and Kurt Warner were came from similar situations. Brohm was a real considered a top talent just one year ago. GB also has Mat Flynn and Maybe they had to make a choice between to good young quarterbacks. Sometimes teams make mistakes, like we did with Trent Green.

Well if you are pulling for him could you at least wait until he plays a few games this season?
