Shanahan, when asked on his thoughts about Bradford, McCoy, etc since the trade: Phillip Rivers didn't start till his 3rd year, Aaron Rodgers as well... you don't usually bring in a rookie to start.. the "perfect situation" would be to bring in a young QB to back up
he didn't say a high pick.. but yeah

I think we're two or three years away from considering a serious QB prospect.

What would you guys think if Shanahan drafted Jimmy Clausen with our first round pick?
That would be a WTF moment for me... And I wouldn't be able to get over it unless Jimmy Clausen turned out to be the franchise quarterback we needed all along.

He just made fun of the fact that the Eagles never ran the ball. Then he said, "we will run the ball here."
But Fat Andy calling a thousand passes a game surely could not have inhibited him, or so says a certain someone(not you).
:D

We are trading for Sage Rosenfels I believe.

They should bring back Mark Brunell so that he can finish his career as a redskin. They are talking right now about Jacksonville signing him to a 1 day contract, but seriously Brunell has a house here in Great Falls and he could be a good backup for 1 season.

If we trade down a bit that might work.. but who knows if Seattle or somebody would pick him up.
As Smoot has reported there are some trade rumors about us bringing linemen in. As long as we get them in, I'll be fine. If we think that we can have a solid O-Line and have a better chance at QB this year with our draft position I can understand that, can't have a 1 year strategy.

We don't need two mediocre-at-best old guns to backup McNabb. Can Brunell even run anymore?
