The "Inside Word" on the QB Search

According to Redskins president of operations Dennis Greene, the Redskins new QB has been chosen, and "fans will be elated." Huh...

This seems a bit strange to me. If they have an agreement and a decision has been made, why not release the information? When do season ticket sales/renewals take place? Hate to appear cynical, but this seems like some kind of marketing ploy to keep fans on the hook for next season.

it's both, actually.

Hmmm, from the sound of it my best guess would be a free agent QB. It doesn't make sense to say that about a QB we would have to draft.

Go for Peyton. Period.

Ummm..... No.

Go for Peyton. Period.

I wish someone would just delete all your posts. Period. If only someone had that kind of power around here....

^ no name, gee thanks... lol

Sometimes my clues are cleverly hidden in my posts...other times they're staring you right in the face.

Well let's put some common sense into the equation. If its a FA more then likely the team will have already gone after and have had the individual sign a contract a whole month before the draft which means we all should already know.

If we won't know until the draft that would more then Likely mean a drafted QB. Unless its a trade involving draft picks. Which would mean the QB is not a FA. So either look at non FA's the Skins would be interested in or guess which QB in the draft it is.

Could it be that they will be or are working with Weeden they like what they see? Is there already a trade scenario in place to get RGIII? Or are we trading for someone else's hand me down?

You must mean "Luck-y" then.

If a deal with Indy for Luck is in place, which I doubt because they need a young QB to rebuild around as much as we do, then it could not be announced until the start of the league year in mid-March, at the earliest. I know the article said it would be announced at the Draft. I'm just stating the earliest a trade could be announced.

I certainly hope that we're not going to acquire Peyton Manning in a trade, as great as he is, because his neck injury makes me way too nervous for that.

if its Luck, it would be best case scenario for us. Skins need to get Lucky for once, we are due

I personally thought the article was way to short, and didn't id needs, other scenarios, and other possible later picks. I'm not hiding the fact I want the B&G to trade back for more picks.

The following article says nothing as well. Unless we signed someone to the squad already that no one has heard of. The assumption is we already have this QB onboard.

It's all conjecture, speculation, and guessing. Just like looking at SS's posts. :confused:
