Shaub for Orakpo and picks?
pfffffftttttttt
That would be stupid.

Hell no. I wouldn't even do that as straight player for player. If the Texans get manning and then try to trade Schaub his value goes down IMO.

My understanding is that he can be signed as soon as he is cut (today), correct?

We need to make this happen.

Doesn't he become a free agent then has to wait for free agency to begin? I have no idea that was just my understanding.

But he is a free agent because he is being cut, not because his contract is expiring. I think that is different, but I could be wrong.

Great. The Skins need to make this happen.

I will order my Manning 18 Jersey tomorrow, I promise.

Although, does anyone think that since his neck problems seem to have started with two Redskins hitting him (possibly in a "bounty" situation) that Manning might not want to come here?

So what is the point of waiting for free agency to start? We should just start signing everyone.

That was my thought when I saw that replay on Monday...but then I remembered Peyton is the consummate professional and wont let something like that effect his decision.

No, he's different because he's being released of his contract. The other free agents don't have their contracts officially expire until next week.
