Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

Gross man. Oh well some will be happy it's not Simms others will be sad it is Grossman. I don't care either way. The coach's know best what QB will work or not work in their system. It's not like he's going to have to take over.... but I could be eating my words later if someone gets hurt. :) I just hope they made the right decision.

[QUOTE]@Adam_Schefter Filed to ESPN: Redskins reached agreement on a one-year deal with QB Rex Grossman, who will be reunited with OC Kyle Shanahan. 4 minutes ago[/QUOTE]

Adams reporting it.

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

horrible move. we should have signed him to a multi-year deal to lock him up.

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

Someone with experience to take Collins place. 1 year deal.

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

It's only a one year deal. It's not like we seriously invested in him.

Does this raise the chance that we will draft a QB at #4 and trade JC?

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

He is definitely an upgrade over Chris Simms.

when did we sign chris simms?

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

I would say this move signifies that they will draft a QB, because now they have a veteran backup who could run the offense until the rookie is ready to start playing....

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

vury interesting.... doesnt bode well for pinapple jesus.

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

True or False? - Jason Campbell will be traded before or during the 2010 draft.

Unless its for a 1st round pick, False.

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

Good backup move, not sure it tips our hand on anything really. We needed a veteran backup and he knows the system.

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

I think it is a good move to sign a QB that know the system. I really don't see Grossman as a starter! I think JC will get traded now. I have mixed emotions.:confused:

This is all I think this is. Shanny can't want this guy to see the field this season and JC isn't as valuable as we need him to be to trade him unless we package in someone else. The FO has shown to be more conservative than in the past so I don't see us doing anything too crazy to land a QB.

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

good move, two reasons.
1. grossman is younger than collins and equally if not more talented.
2. grossman already knows the system we are about to install.

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

I think this is the competition the skins are bringing in for Campbell; we are going to address OL w/ #4

that is the way I read it anyhow :)

I'm still standing by my feelings that we are going to make a trade with the Rams for either their #1 spot or letting them pick Bradford at #1 and us picking whoever they want at #4 and giving them both JC and the #4 draft pick for Bradford. Just my gut feeling.

Someone will have to give us a 1st-round pick.

I doubt it will happen.



From what we've heard, Shanahan likes Brennan. I wonder if this settles our QB position with JC, Rex and Colt...letting us really concentrate on the O-line in the draft. We can look at getting Jake Locker next year if JC fails behind a good line, which I don't see happening.

If we don't upgrade the O-line, we'll be worse off with a rookie QB and bad line than with Campbell and a good line.

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

I dont think its a bad move at all.. its not like he's gonna play unless our season is totally f'ed anyways..

HORRIBLE TRADE FOR US!

Great deal for the Rams if they could pull off that highway robbery. This sounds like something Vinny would do.

Jason will not get traded and no one will be willing to give up a first round pic for him. The signing of Rex is a clear sign the we will draft an offensive tackle (Okung) with the first pic maybe even trading up and gaining a pic and still getting our tackle. We need to solidify the offensive line first and foremost. Jason is not going anywhere.........

If he DOES, he knows Kyle Shanahan's system and likely Mike Shanahan's too. The fact that it is a 1-year deal makes me think we're going to build up the line this year and if we need a QB after doing that...next year we will get one in the draft.

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

I am going to switch my user to Sexyrexi and try and sell it to Smoot.

how could we trade up and receive another pick? i'm confused. also, how is this a clear sign we will get a tackle?

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

^ Which is good since backup qb's play all of the time due to injuries to starters.

Never thought I'd be rooting for Grossman, though.

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

I don't know how signing a backup QB is a clear sign of anything... but I'm glad some of you have such clear cystal balls working for you. :)

i dont think that would necessarily be a bad deal for us - IF Shanahan is confident that Campbell can't get it done here. In that case, Campbell has no value here anyways.

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

If I was a coach bringing a new system to a team, I'd sign at least one veteran player at every position who knows the system really well, for teaching/learning purposes.

Seriously, do you know anything about football? Locker will be the #1 pick in next year's draft, so there is no way in hell we will be able to get him. Also, from everything I've heard, Shanahan isn't a big fan of Brennan, so this signing pretty much guarantees that Colt will be cut at some point. The Skins are definitely taking a QB in the draft, whether it's in the first round or after, they are taking someone, so there won't be room for Colt on the roster. BYE BYE Colt!!

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

I leave TWP for an HOUR and I missed something.. FUUUUUUU

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

Given the Grossman signing, we could draft Tebow and start a whole new GatorSkins generation. It worked out well the first time. :)

[quote]Is that Berrian? I think he’s triple-covered. You know what? Fuck it. I’m throwing it downfield.

Yeah, I see Jones open on the flank. But fuck that. Dumpoff passes are for faggots. I’m fucking Sexy Rexy Grossman. I can get that ball in there. And, even if I can’t, I bet I’ll be able to pull it off the next go round. I like throwing the ball long. It makes my dick hard.

What’s that? I should throw a quick slant? Fuck that. That’s gay. Button hook? Gay. Flare out? Gay. Screen pass? Kevin Spacey gay. This is fucking football. You can’t just expect wins to come to you. You can’t massage that shit. You gotta grab that game by the throat and rape the ever-loving shit out of it. You think a 5-yard out is gonna win you a game? You’re a pussy. This ain’t John Shoop running this offense. Sexy Rexy’s got the arm. The dragon. You gotta unleash the dragon.

Okay, I’m throwing it. Nice. Look how far it went. I look good. I bet I made that Pats cheerleader wet her panties with that throw. She fucking wants me. I bet she likes it over a stair railing. I can hit that with 100% accuracy, my dear. Mmmmmm. I am delicious.

Oh shit. Looks like Samuel caught it. Again. Oh well. It still felt fucking great to throw that shit. Tell me that wasn’t one of the prettiest passes you ever saw. You know what? Not only am I gonna throw it long the next time we hit the field. I’m gonna throw it even longer. Harder. You see that kid in wheelchair sitting in the end zone bleachers? I’m gonna nail him right between the fucking eyes with a Sexy Rexy fastball. Why? Because I can.

This is Rex Grossman we’re talking about here. We’re talking 210 lbs. of twisted steel and sex appeal. I’m not just a gunslinger. I’m a cumslinger. Throwing that ball long tells all the Rexettes that I am fucking out there. On the edge. Where I gotta be. The ladies love the danger. The unpredictability. Oh, maybe I’ll tease them with a pretty touch pass every now and again. But then I’m gonna go right back to pumping that ball out for all it’s worth. It tells them I throw like I fuck. That’s how we do things in the sexy business.

Tell me you’re not turned on right now. I am.[/quote]

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

Wow, just saw it. Hmm I don't want to jump the gun here. My first impression is, "why?"

I'm going to fold up my arms and let this one play out.

Todd Collins replacement

I mean who expects a starter as our backup? At least the guy HAS started and had some success before.

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

I willing to bet the QB position is locked up for 2010, JC starter 2nd Rex then Colt 3rd. Okung will be the starting left tackle. With only five picks in the draft MS and BA are going to play it closet to the vest, no big surprises.

Drunk already today? :D


We all thought Colt McCoy would be #1 in 2010 also.

Re: Redskins Sign Grossman
 

3 main reasons for this move

1) he's cheap
2) he's available
3) he knows the offense

Ok 4 reasons, he's Sexy Rexy dammit
