Well I know they're referencing us because I found the link to that forum in the link backs section at the bottom of this thread. But yeah that's horrible. One random guy comes in here and says he thinks McCoy and Shipley are coming here and then it's a legit rumor? Only in the offseason.
Didn't even notice the link back :)

Sounds to me as if the door is still open for Rex in 2012.
Kyle Shanahan: Rex Grossman was Redskins best playmaker in 2011 - DC Sports Bog - The Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/dc-sports-bog/post/kyle-shanahan-rex-grossman-was-redskins-best-playmaker-in-2011/2012/02/01/gIQApealhQ_blog.html)
Rex was often a playmaker for the opposition, as well. He has a major problem with turnovers and, after 9 years in the league, it doesn't look like he can correct that problem.
Regardless, I think it is now clear to most observers that an NFL team needs to have a QB who is well above average in order to be a contender. That's not Rex.
Nevertheless, I would support signing him as a backup. I think he's more than adequate in that role.

It's not like Kyle gave Rex a ringing endorsement, he said they need to upgrade the position. Which doesn't really bode well for Rex coming back again to start.
Clearly referencing this site since they also bring up SC's Vikings/Bradford/Redskins rumor
But yeah I think I've gone blind now
wow that site is worse on the eyes than ES...

I would be totally stunned if Bradford is playing for any team other than St Louis or Washington

It would be funny if Rex was on a different team but because he was i find that comment a little disconcerting.
Rex Grossman is not a playmaker in anyway shape or form.

That's good because reading that rumor was a punch in the gut. I can live with St Louis keeping him but if they make him available and the Skins don't get it done I am gonna lose it.
