Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice

My picks are PM or Bradford, PM allows us to trade back & get more picks lasts years draft spoilled me this whole tradeing back and getting more picks and good talent is a BRILLIANT! idea.

I see it two ways.

Offseason Plan with Peyton:
Sign Peyton
Sign Reggie Wayne
Trade Down and pickup a Stanford lineman in the first (G - David DeCastro or OT Jonathan Martin)
Pick the best second tier QB in the 2nd (Tannehill, Foles, Osweiler)
BPA with the other Second Round pick with a slight favor towards the offensive side of the ball. Or Better yet try to trade down again for a 3rd and fourth.

Offseason Plan with RGIII
Sign Vincent Jackson, Dwayne Bowe, or Marques Colston
Trade 2012 and 2013 First for RGIII
Use Second Round pick on Offensive Lineman
Use third round pick on BPA preferably offense

Granted this is kind of more what I would do but it gives you an idea of what our options are under both scenarios.

This is an interesting read regarding Steve Young's view of MS and how Peyton could thirve here.

Steve Young thinks Peyton Manning to the Redskins is a fit - DC Sports Bog - The Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/dc-sports-bog/post/steve-young-thinks-peyton-manning-to-the-redskins-is-a-fit/2012/02/08/gIQAY0pNzQ_blog.html)

I for one want to see this team win. NOW! LOL
GREAT find!
Nice to have the opinion of an actual player with HOF skills, rather than the endless...blather of blowhard player wannabe's....gone sportscaster and armchair quarterbacks.

“Well first of all, no one is doubting my love affair with Mike Shanahan,” Young said. “I mean, the two of us, for three of four years, the guy was unbelievable. He can call plays like no one I’ve ever seen. He was just amazing in my professional career. So first of all, when you talk about quarterbacks and who could really do something with Peyton Manning, in my mind it’s Mike Shanahan....It’s one of those places where it seems like it’s all in place.”
Then Thom Loverro speculated that Shanahan’s quarterback guru reputation has taken a hit in recent seasons.
“Let me just tell you this: Mike is a phenomenal playcaller, but he wants a quarterback that will protect his incredible ability to call plays,” Young said. “In other words, I’m gonna call a series of plays, I’m gonna put combinations together that are a little bit outlandish, but you need to protect me. Most playcallers have to go the other way — I’ve got to call plays because my quarterback’s not gonna protect me and I’m gonna protect him. That relationship is vital.

I'm going to steal your scenarios Dirt and add a few things...

Offseason Plan with Peyton:
Sign Peyton
Sign Marques Colston
Trade Down and pickup DeCastro (OG) in the first
Pick the best second tier QB in the 2nd (Tannehill, Foles, Osweiler)
BPA with the other Second Round pick with a slight favor towards the offensive side of the ball (tackle or WR).

Offseason Plan with RGIII
Sign Vincent Jackson
Sign FA Vet QB bridge
Sign Ben Grubbs (OG)
Get an upgrade from Brown at RT.
Trade 2012 and 2013 First, 2012 second for RGIII (I don't think two firsts is going to cut it)
Use third round pick on BPA preferably offense

Wow...that quote especially is perceptive. Always thought young was one of the brighter QBs to play and game, no surprise he saw things much the same way as MS and they had great coach/player chemistry.

Play-calling wasn't necessarily inspiring in Denver though, before or after Elway. What I remember most are the nasty defenses under Philips and elite players like SS, TD and Elway consistently making game-changing plays.

Seems like a lot of players are coming out of the woodwork about Manning to the Redskins. Schlereth was preaching it on Mike & Mike this morning.

Injuries forced him to retire.

Thats what I thought. He definitly was not cut.

He's right....

If you go to the bottom of the article it gives you Chris Mortenson's opinion as well as some others. Steve to me is the most valueable as you are talking about a HOF who has worked with MS and knows PM. It can give him some insight as to why the relationship would work.
