"So then what in the world are you saying? First you're "NOT suggesting that Gibbs start Jason Campell." Then you're saying "Having Campbell sit on the bench, or only operate with the 2nd stringers, does not make sense to me." Seems contradictory to me.

If you really care about getting value for a contract, why are you so concerned about getting value for Campbell, while showing no concern for getting value out of Brunell ($42 million contract)? It's not making any sense to me."

Well let me try and straighten this out for ya Schneed. Can you tell me how many snaps Jason Campbell has taken with the starting offense? Answer: None. Im saying that Campbell needs to be allowed to compete with Brunnell, he needs quality snaps with the starting offense and he needs more game time in the preseason. As far as why am I not criticizing Brunnell's contract, well that wasn't the point of the thread now was it? Ive dished out plenty of criticism on that contract before. Im not arguing value for $ spent, Im arguing assessing the value of a guy you gave up 2 first round draft picks for. As for the "Gibbs knows best" argument, you guys really don't need to respond if that's always the comeback argument. I love Gibbs, but to never ever question any of the personnel decisions or coaching decisions is unrealistic.
