WR Marshall Benched by McDaniels

Look like Marshall & McDaniels are back into again. As well as his has played I'm surprised he hasn't gotten a contract extension.

Okay, I'll be the guy everyone makes fun of in this thread..

Is Marshall worth a trade? A 26yo ProBowl Wide Receiver who is 6'4".. WRs can last a decade (Terrell Owens is 36 years old)... We could give them Moss and Randle El/Kelly/or Thomas.

Sure, we draft O-line, then O-line, then RB, maybe CB. Maybe we keep Campbell for one more year if we can't pick-up a good QB (although reports suggest he's gone).

BUT after all that if we have space in an uncapped year -- Could Marshall be worth it? He even made Orton look good over there in Denver..

I think Shanny could make it work. The WR position has been horrible the last several years. We need to cut ARE, he's horrible. Move Santana in the slot, DT on one side and Marshall on the other...Marko, Kelly 4 and 5...That becomes a solid corp....

Marshall is a heck of a player. But I think that we need fewer head cases, not more. Let's not acquire Marshall.

i would love to see him in a skins uniform, hes better than anything we have on offense right now

[Redskin Warrior]

He's a RFA next year I think

[Redskins8588]

I hope that we get Shanahan and he brings Marshall with him...

[Redskins8588]

We need a playmaker at the WR spot, and Marshall brings that ability...

[rbanerjee23]

No way, we do not need the new T.O., sure he's happy for a season and then what? With Fred and Cooley, we have two decent receiving targets so even if DT/MK can be even an average receiver, we have a decent corp right there

would take him in a heart beat

[Redskin Warrior]

He has more upside than T.O. (reports Shanny would want him) plus he is younger and I think he respects Shanny more that McDaniels and buys into his system.

He's a very talented player, no doubt. But he's sitting out a very important game that has playoff implications over a minor injury. Do we want someone like that?

He sat him because he wouldn't play. I know, kind of redundant isn't it?

ok. read that he doesnt want to play for the reason he doesnt want to take a chance on getting hurt at the end of his contract year. you would think he would play if its possible.
