I'd still rather have someone else as HC. Let Weis be OC.

I actually thought that Weis and Clausen may reunite in Buffalo. They need SOMETHING to get that franchise excited again. I wouldn't be excited about either one of them in DC.

This was an interesting thread also...

For those who have "inside info"/better logic than me: Whats Vinnys status now? - EXTREMESKINS.com

the second blogger is commenting on the story I heard also about DS staying late at the park.

Former Notre Dame coach Charlie Weis and QB Jimmy Clausen could find themselves together again with the Washington Redskins next season.

It’s a possibility.

Sure, anything is a "possibility".

I hate fuzzy speculation.

I don't think Danny could sell Shannahan & Vinny as anything other then more of the same. I like to think us Redskins fans are smarter then that...

Agreed on Weis. I'm starting to like Bradford over Clausen a bit. I don't know, they're neck and neck for me. Need to see how Bradford performs at the combine. Of course, this is all assuming they go QB in the 1st round

It is possible that I may participate in a triathlon. LOL.

Indeed.. and who are the people sitting outside of the park waiting for Danny to leave? Unless someone was clued in by someone who works for the organization

Do we know that Cerrato came up with Lewis though? I mean I guess you can give him credit for saying we have to bring someone in. I have a hunch that Zorn asked Holmgren and Holmgren recommended Lewis; of course I have nothing to base that on, but just a thought.

How can anything about who the redskins OC and 1st round draft pick be anything but sheer and utter speculation? We don't even know who our HC will be yet? And lets say, for arguments sake, that we do get Weis as OC. How do we know we'd be in a position to draft Clausen?

I think its far more likely that (if Weis doesnt return to New England) Brady Quinn ends up starting wherever Weis lands.

Regarding the 2nd post in the ES thread, i mentioned Vinny's bad-mouthing Snyder in an earlier thread. If Vinny is bad-mouthing Snyder, i see two possibilities:

1. Cerrato is even dumber than I thought, and upon learning that Snyder doesnt intend to keep him around, is bad-mouthing his current boss to his prospective employers - never a smart move.
2. Snyder has something really really really DUMB going on in the works - something so stupid that even Vinny thinks its moronic (Bringing in Pete Carroll and giving him total control maybe?)

I am pretty sure its been reported that it was Cerrato's decision to bring in someone, although in an interview I think it Cerrato let it slip that he didn't even really know who Lewis was... I think its likely that Cerrato asked Blache if he knew anyone who could do the job and Blache recommended Lewis. (Remember, it wouldnt be the first time Cerrato or Snyder had asked Blache to "betray" his boss.)

Zorn definitely was not involved in the process and was opposed to the whole idea of bringing in someone else. I also think we can definitively say that whomever recommended Sherman, it wasnt Holmgren - he's publically bashed the skins for bringing in someone else and embarrassing Zorn in that way.

If Vinny stays with Shanahan on board he'll be a figurehead at best

Mariucci recommended Lewis to Cerrato

Hopefully he's turned into a "runner". The guy who gets Shanny coffee and bear claws...makes copies, fetches more TP for the office bathroom.

I would probably lean toward #1 if he is bad-mouthing him. Which I don't think he is
