desaen jackson was drafted right after fred davis, and ray rice was drafted three or four spots behind kelly, not to mention we needed lineman in both of thoose drafts and we got one, vinny is terrible personell guy

So what how many other teams passed on those players? We had Moss / ARE small WR on the roster at the time. You win some you lose some.

Thomas has had one or two good games and one of them was against a team that was pulling cb's off the street. Let's not overvalue the guys on this team yet just cause they're Redskins. Right now the only true keeper is probably Orakpo. The rest of them the verdict is still out.

Yea just the New England Patriots and Brady about the c/b they pulled off the streets.

FYI, according to a thread on extremeskins, Clausen will appear as a guest of Vinny's on his radio show tomorrow morning at some point between 8-10AM.

I do not want a rookie qb starting for us next season period. We dont need a rookie QB we need a young stud tackle, guard, center. Then go for a young QB and RB.

There is no way we should pick up Clausen in the first round, if he falls to the 2nd round sure we should pick him up then. it would be a steal, but there is no way he is going to fall that far and no way we can afford to use our first round pick on anything but O-line.

we needed WR's a hell of alot more than we needed a younger back. While our offensive line still needs help, our defensive line has been dramatically upgraded over the past two years (Haynesworth, Jackson, Jarmon, and Orakpo). Are you going to complain no matter what the front office does? I bet if they draft o-linemen this year, you'll complain they didnt address some other position.

I know alot of people dont like acknowledging this, but Joe Jackson Gibbs set this franchise back several years by trading draft picks and stockpiling on old veteran players in an attempt to reach the superbowl. Not only did he fail to win more than one playoff game, but didnt develop young talent and left this team with the oldest roster in the NFL. He essentially put all of our chips on the table, went "all in," and lost. There's absolutely nothing any GM could have done in the past 2 years to put us in a noteably better situation (personnel wise) than we are now.

Agreed.

Thomas is starting to show signs of life... in time I believe he could be a more complete package than Jackson.

agreed.. he might not have that elusiveness but he's big, great hands, and tough as hell

I love when people make the other side's argument. Gary Clark was good, but without Monk he would have had less of the career. We have this teams Gary Clark in Santana, we needed a Monk, and may have found one in DT at least last game, the way he pulled away from receivers.
I'm hoping that Kelly becomes the Monk type and DT is a little more Gary Clark

either way if we can catch, move the chains, and score TDs I don't care who plays what role

Not impressed at all with Clausen from the interview. He's too laid back for me. I loathe the California mentality. I feel like he's more suited to be a character on The Hills than be an NFL quarterback.
