Well iamsrk has already told us that we're getting Colt...so I don't know what you're worried about
I still think it's not Manning, not Orton, nor Flynn that we're getting in FA. My gut says we're adding one maybe two QBs before the draft. But not those guys mentioned above
Please tell me who the redksins would sign if they dont go after flynn, orton, or manning? And what reasons do you have for those thoughts?

Like who? Hoyer, Josh Johnson? Who are some of the under the radar guys?
Josh Johnson would likely not be a starter
Nor would Jimmy Clausen for that matter
Yeah I believe Hoyer is the main under the radar guy not being talked about
annnnnnnddddddd Mark Sanchez! :)
Seriously though, I just feel like Manning's not coming here because I don't get the sense there is a strong "passion" to bring him here from the group of decision makers. They're probably more passionate about Orton (they did nearly acquire him twice after all), relatively speaking. And...truthishly...Hoyer and Clausen are two names that always kind of stay in the conversation while others tend to come and go
So I could see trade a 3rd for Hoyer, sign Clausen, use the 2nd to get a Foles/Cousins type

I know rex isn't the best, but you think clausen is a better back-up than rex? Rex would be a safer back-up IMO than jimmy. Their is no time to develop jimmy clausen and to see if it works. They need to win now. I could see hoyer possibly. Dont know if shannahan is going to trade any picks unless for RG III, who I dont think we are getting. We just have to wait and see. If they were interested in hoyer, I'm pretty sure that would be out their already.

It's going to be ugly if that's the case I think.

Rex and the Redskins have been at a bit of a standstill with contract talks and Clausen can probably be had cheap.
I think they're going to let Rex test the market and then welcome him back if neither side finds something better

I find it hard to believe we can't find anyone better.

This plan is sort of like settling for a few things off the dollar menu instead of springing for the Big Mac that you really want...
