Oh yeah, I did forget that lol good thing you reminded me ;) Audi 03-17-2010, 03:58 PM Wow, tall request but here goes. These are first round QB's: David Klingler Tommy Maddox Rick Mirer Heath Shuler (Sorry to toss that one at you) Jim Druckenmiller Ryan Leaf Tim Couch Akili Smith Cade McNown Can you tell me how these teams were held back by drafting a quarterback? For example, would the Redskins have been a perennial playoff team in the 90's had they taken someone else besides Heath Shuler within reason?

Does this mean we're trading Campbell? johno 03-17-2010, 04:03 PM OMG, I must be in the twilight zone! Tell me I just didn't wake up to us signing Rex Grossman? Does this mean we're trading Campbell? thats one way of looking at it. that, or we are planning on keeping JC and use our pick on the offensive line. or that we simply needed a backup QB and now we have one that knows the new offensive scheme and is younger than Collins. BigHairedAristocrat 03-17-2010, 04:03 PM Too sexy for you is he? Grossman got a bum rap in Chicago, injuries and poor playcalling did him in. He's a better man and player now. Grossman will be just fine as a backup/spot starter/jevan snead mentor If the skins traded out of the 4th pick, picked up a 2nd round pick, and ended up drafting Spiller, Snead, and an offensive tackle, you'd be a rather happy camper, wouldnt you? tryfuhl 03-17-2010, 04:04 PM Can you tell me how these teams were held back by drafting a quarterback? For example, would the Redskins have been a perennial playoff team in the 90's had they taken someone else besides Heath Shuler within reason? Indeed... such as in the early 2000s on what'd we do with a good line? if you can make the argument that the line is our only weakness that's fine, hell even the biggest, it arguably is.. but a line alone won't do it either way, we'll see offensive improvements with a better line.. does it mean we have to use pick 4 on it? nope tryfuhl 03-17-2010, 04:07 PM thats one way of looking at it. that, or we are planning on keeping JC and use our pick on the offensive line. or that we simply needed a backup QB and now we have one that knows the new offensive scheme and is younger than Collins. yep.. us signing Grossman means that he's our starter just as much as CLE signing Delhomme you could argue that delhomme has a better opportunity though I guess SmootSmack 03-17-2010, 04:08 PM If the skins traded out of the 4th pick, picked up a 2nd round pick, and ended up drafting Spiller, Snead, and an offensive tackle, you'd be a rather happy camper, wouldnt you? Hells yeah BigHairedAristocrat 03-17-2010, 04:09 PM If we draft a QB in the first or 2nd round, i'd take whatever I could get for Campbell, since he really wouldnt have a place on the team. If we don't draft a QB, I wouldn't let Campbell go for anything less than a 2nd. he'd simply be too valuable to us. tryfuhl 03-17-2010, 04:10 PM We may actually have to package him up to get the 3rd and 4th, alone he probably gets one or the other. And right now there is just one (maybe two) team interested in him. I wouldn't want to give up much to get that any chance of revealing interested teams?
