just looking at the teams that were in the afc and nfc championship teams over the past few years, it looks like most of those teams DIDN'T have a first round QB that the team drafted. atleast half got to that point with veteran QBs. this further makes me think that whomever we draft in the 1st round, should not be someone we take a gamble on. there are lots of ways to build successful franchises. you dont need to draft a top5 QB to be successful anymore than you need to draft a top5 left tackle or pass rusher. its all about making smart decisions in free agency, keeping your draft picks, and making wise use of the picks you have.

No word as of this morning.
I would say that usually when it's the Redskins themselves that tell me "Big news today" it's usually something "big" like "Notre Dame to play at FedEx" or "Snyder sending food to Haiti and Chile" When it's actual big news, I hear it from elsewhere.
I just hope Carter knows how to make good spaghetti
so you heard it from elsewhere

So it was the Redskins themselves that told you guys that big news was coming today?

No, heard from the Redskins to expect big news today. Like I said though, it could be the announcement of a charity event or something like that
Also, checked this morning, been told that no trade to the Saints has happened. Wasn't told whether it could, might, would happen.
Q: Did the Redskins trade Andre Carter to the Saints last night
A: No
Q: Are they talking?
A: He's a Redskin

I think there's something going on, something more than just some fluff news, but I don't know what it is

Larry is the king of fluff news...he says he has a major announcement coming and then it usually ends up being something like the fields at Redskins Park being watered.

Interesting, hadn't heard that Michael said that. I never really listen to him anyway up here
Anyway, whatever I hear I will, of course, let you all know
