This will be interesting for Colt and Bartel. I don't think much of any of the three including Beck, but it appears Colts days are numbered.

re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

The compensation won't be much as, if for a pick, not a player, it would be a conditional 7th. Beck is probably not likely to make the roster.

re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

Could be a cornerback going in this deal though.

Who's BEHIND Barnes on the depth chart?

No way we trade a CB with even a shot at making the team for John Beck. Ramzee Robinson?

Doug Dutch to the Ravens

re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

Why exactly?

Not trying to hate on John Beck or anything, but I don't really get the reason behind the trade. Does he have ties to anyone on the staff?

re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

Very interesting move. Colt and Bartel must be out...Someone on the Skins coaching staff must really like Beck

re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

Screw compenstation. The real question on peoples minds right now is will he pass the conditioning test?

And this might not be the best time to ask...but who the hell is Doug Dutch?

Re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

Who the hell is DD....lol? Is he a REDSKIN? Ole yea he's a scrub that had no chance to begin with.

Re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

This guy went from high 2nd round pick (4th QB taken after JaMarcus, Quinn, and Kolb) to waived by the Dolphins to traded for Doug Dutch. Yikes!

At least he's still in the league? I remember when was drafted, some people really liked him, I never though much of him, but I didn't think he'd fallen so far as to be traded for a CB I've never heard of

Re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

Dutch played like a scrub anyway. I was going to mildly berate Shanahan in my thoughts like with what he did with Albright and Hunter, but then I saw Dutch's name...

Def not good news for Colt

Re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

Goodbye Brennan

Re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

Stick a fork in him. Im surprised about Bartel though. My impression from what people had said so far about him was that he was doing well. I thought he had a shot to nail the 3rd QB spot.

Nothing's set in stone yet on the 3rd QB position, if it even will exist

Re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

John Beck's 2007 numbers were really, really terrible in any number of ways, but at least his interception rate was respectable.

[quote]2007 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
John Beck, QB, BYU
John Beck looks to be a top 10 QB, perhaps going as early as the third round, but more realistically probably fourth or even fifth round. His age (at 25) is a concern, as well as being a product of the BYU system that typically plays weaker teams. His arm strength is average, but his strengths include his accuracy and great decision-making ability, thus avoiding turnovers. He also has a pretty quick release and a good presence in the pocket. His height is average for a QB, but is shorter than the premier QBs in this year's draft (Quinn is 6'4 and Russell is 6'6).

[quote]B8 - John Beck, Brigham Young Official Bio
Height: 6-2
Weight: 215
40 yard dash: 4.77
Grade: 55
Strengths:
John Beck has a quick release and is efficient in a short passing attack. Beck has adequate arm strength and is a good character person.
Weaknesses:
Beck has an awkward release, including a low release point at times. He comes from a shotgun based spread passing offense in college and will be forced to adapt to making more vertical NFL throws. He is older than the typical prospect at age 25.
Overall:
Beck has been effective at BYU, but will have a hard time being anything more then a backup at the next level. He is not the athlete many teams are seeking at quarterback and his age is a concern. He is good at making quick decisions and has acceptable arm strength.[/quote]


This sounds strangely similar to Colt's scouting reports/hype.

Re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

Too bad we didn't trade Dutch for Anquan Boldin...

Re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

Not sure that I get this move but it is not like we gave up the farm. Dutch was a long shot to be any better than practice squad.

How is his arm strength? It seems like the problem with Rex, and Colt atleast was their arm strength and deep ball throws.

Worse than that. He didn't make it past final cuts for the Las Vegas Locomotives in the UFL and then came to our practice squad in midseason. lolololol

Re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

Beck is not NFL material. He simply does not have an NFL arm. Not sure about this trade.

Re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

Well I think it's safe to say that with the Raven's new depth at CB they are a lock for the super bowl!

Harmless trade, unless you think Dutch is an NFL DB.

Yeah, it seems like the bad version of Taylor Jacobs for Mike Rumph

Really a who cares move, unless you're a QB not named McNabb

Re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

One no-name for another. Not really, but still.

I consider myself a fanatic when it comes to the Redskins. To the point where I know a lot of the practice squad players. Even I have never heard of Doug Dutch before now.

What a flashy trade!

NFL Live will probably devote tonight's whole show to covering this blockbuster.

Re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

I dont think this trade indicates an even remote interest in beck himself. I think what it means is that the Shanahan's have determined that Colt is garbage and they needed to find a QB who could atleast provide some competition for Bartel.

I know there's been talk of the Skins only carrying two QBs on the active roster, but thats foolish speculation in my opinion. Yeah, Shanahan's done it before, but never with a QB as brittle as McNabb. At some point, McNabb is going to miss atleast one game. We simply can't go into a game with Grossman as the the only active QB. We don't even have ARE any more to serve as an emergency guy. In the end, Bartel's our third QB and we're just bringing in Beck to push him to improve.

Re: Redskins Acquire QB John Beck (for CB Doug Dutch)
 

The Cut of Colt re-emerges.. He was saved by a hip injury last summer, now he may not get another pre-season game snap with the Skins..

It doesn't say too much that Beck was traded by the team that employs the coach who originally drafted him. Oh well.

** EDIT ** As I was saying...
ESPN 980 has learned that QB Colt Brennan has been released.
