Even though Clausen met with the Redskins, I still haven't heard one person I trust say the Redskins have any intention of drafting him. They could be lying, but they never have before. Things could also change between now and April 23rd but I've got to believe that they won't. Further, it wouldn't surprise if this news about Clausen training with VC out in So Cal wasn't leaked by someone inside the Skins and isn't designed to get some team like Seattle to think the Redskins are planning to draft him so they better trade up if they want him
Whats the word on Colt McCoy? I think I remember you saying that they really like him and could easily take him come April.

Yeah well truthfully it's hard to know how seriously to take that and how much of that is just that Kyle Shanahan is tight with McCoy because of their Texas ties. I assume the same with Zach Robinson, KS follows the Big 12 so closely.
I think if they don't take Bradford and they get to round 3 (and the Redskins have a pick) and Colt is available then you might see them take McCoy but not sure it will be before then.

Jevan Sneed goes along with Matthew Stafford on Spring Break. Colt McCoy? On spring break he does missionary work in Lima. Also lets not forget who won the starting job at Texas. Ya BOY Snead is a poor mans Jay Cutler.....crap.

I'm not scared of you, I've got right on my side along with a healthy dose of love for Colt McCoy. Sure I've been skeptical of him at times but I watched a highlight tape a few days ago that put my mind at ease.
Also remember this. McCoy's highlight tapes are much more interesting then Sneads. At this time I'd like you to look back and remember Shanahans "talent evaluation process."
You can ban me if you want but I will stand by my principles (please don't ban me).

lol at this hand size thing with Clausen... I measured my hands for shits and giggles and my hands are just slightly bigger than his. And I've never had a problem gripping or tossing a football. I can't really palm a basketball, but throwing a football is no problem, and apparently it isn't for Clausen either.
What exactly constitutes a hand-measuring? From what points on the hand/wrist/fingers are they measuring? My hands are oddly large. I'm pretty self-conscious about it actually. I feel like my hands look funny compared to my frame, and I'm 6'3 220. From the tip of my middle finger to the base of my wrist is 9.5 inches (measured yesterday during all this combine nonsense), and I can easily palm a basketball. I have bigger hands than almost everyone I know, and I heard some NFL Network guys talk about how scouts were "disappointed" when a guy didn't have "10 inch hands." Seems to me if you can palm a basketball then catching/throwing a football shouldn't be much of an issue. I mean, do they want pass catchers dragging their knuckles when they walk or something?
I think they measure the width from thumb to pinky, the wing span of your hand basically
