I am Impressed Am Excitied With All The Young Guys Stepping Up This Year

I think we have added at least three free agent young starters to our team. We also have had several other players that have stepped up and could possibly be solid starters next year. I think that there is allot of positives to take out of this year. Next year we will be a much younger team, and have a bunch of new bona fide starters. Banks, Armstrong, Torain, and Lichtenstieger, are starters in my opinion. Bryant, Grossman, Jackson, Jarmon, and Barnes, all look like they could be potential starters. Remember, Joe Gibbs was 6-10 his first year back with the Redskins. We have 1st, 2nd, 5th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 7th draft choices next year. Thats more than normal. The only problem I had with this win is it sent us careening down the draft board. What do you guys think?

THe hot commodities in the QBs are beyond our reach anyway so good for the win. We need linemen not a QB now.

A team is nothing, without a Quarterback. Keep drafting them untill you have one and then you can build your team.

unexpected contributions from players like Jeremy Jarmon, Rob Jackson, Kevin Barnes, and even Terrance Austin had a reception. It is indeed good to see some of these younger players who may be counted on in the future gaining valuable experience. Playing out of necessity is probably the only way they would have gotten the opportunity to show what they can do, at least for this season anyway. Good to see they're taking advantage of the opportunities given.

I think we go franchise qb in the draft this year, unless there's none worth taking by the time we pick. And even though I loved the effort by the no name guys today, I'm not entirely sure how many of them we'll see on the roster next season. It's not about whether we won or lost today, or even next week for that matter. I, and the coaching staff it seems, just want to evaluate players for next season.

As long as its not the JC fiasco all over again. I kind of bawk at the idea of drafting a QB (even though it's a glaring need and we basically have to) simply because the chance of getting a good, franchise QB in the draft is so low. Last year was a really good year with drafting QBs with Bradford, Sanchez, Tebow (though he's still up for debate, I suppose) etc.

Maybe it's just because I don't know 2011 draft class yet, I don't follow college much. But I'm still deathly afraid of us drafting a bust or someone we're just gonna end up shipping out a few years down the road.

I hear you. I basically feel the same way. As a fan, watching the team get burned with QB draft selections so much in the past, I'd rather not even bother with it. Just give me a year like we had with Brad Johnson in '99 -- a moderately priced free agent who steps right in a meshes perfectly with the offense to carry us to the playoffs.

Just build up the damn lines.

Actually, Brad Johnson was a high cost trade acquisition. First round QB busts aren't too bad actually if it's just the 1st rounder and you don't waste anything else to pick the QB. Oakland totally bombed with Russell, but it seems that they recovered in the next season to have a pretty damn talented team that even a mediocre QB like JC can find some success there. JC's failure here hurt us more because it cost us picks.

Other than Luck and he's even a ?, what QB's are FRANCHISE type in this draft?? Don't say Newton or Locker

Nice to see a bunch of no-names stepping up. These are the type of guys that are the backbone of a good team.
