I think as my second post shows McNabb knows the Skins need help at WR and T.O. is the best in FA right now that could upgrade the team. I think if the team is pushing for a playoff spot or SB bound then I'm sure they are looking into it.
As you said GMscud I heard a while ago the Skins were thinking about him and someone at the top was adament or against signing T.O. I think if it's true that everyone has to agree then maybe this was the first sign that their plan is working on how they bring in FA's and or draft players. It doesn't mean T.O. won't be here but some serious talking will need to take place.
But it does speak volumes when the leader of the team/ QB goes to upper management and says we need him you should go out and get him.

I wouldn't worry about any of these rumors until after the draft. Who knows if McNabb will even be here, he hasn't signed a contract extension yet.

Rosenhaus was just live on ESPN. He said that before TO signed with Dallas, Shanahan flew TO out to Denver and had dinner with him and "badly wanted to sign him." I didn't know that. That was 4 or 5 years ago though. TO has a lot more miles on him now.

I don't know about "badly wanted to sign him" He offered him a contract though
Your boy Riley was a big hit here today.

Add me to the list that doesn't want this to happen. I know that the Redskins have wanted nothing to do with him in the past.

Umm, Shanahan tried to get T.O. in 2008 when he was being shopped by Dallas. He ended up with the Bills.
