i think the chances we dont spend a 1st or 2nd round pick on a QB is slim to none.

No hate for Sage it's just hard to get excited over a 32 year old journeyman backup

id rate him above the journeyman quarterback we have on the roster and the soon-to-be jounrneyman QB we're trying to get rid of.

He's no Jake Plummer

the 2011 conditional pick could escellate as high as a 2nd round pick if the Redskins beat the eagles twice, finish the season with a better record, or go further in the playoffs than the Eagles. If the Eagles season is better than ours, then the Eagles get nothing.

Basically what this questions asks is this - do you feel a 2nd round pick would be better spent on McNabb or a rookie quarterback? (keep in mind, its very very rare for quarterbacks not taken in the 1st round to ever become starters)

I would never give any draft pick for McNabb. He is a stop gap...I prefer to build something long term. If I am tossing around draft picks I would rather give them to the Rams and get Bradford.

we've got so many needs on our team a stop gap would do just fine for right now. that said, my preference would be to roll with the QBs we have and use our first and 2nd round picks to address our O-line. we still dont have potential starters at either tackle position.

However, my personal opinion is that whoever drafts Bradford or Clausen will be pissing the pick away. i dont think there's a true franchise QB in the draft.

About what? How his receivers aren't in midseason form? God that guy bombed his pro day. Alright maybe now bombed, but it certainly didn't make a case for him to be a second round pick.

Didn't get a chance to talk to him, work got in the way. Was just going to talk to him about the Redskins...and tell him I'm hoping we don't draft him

If you see Bradford, can you tell him I hope we don't draft him? LOL. Actually, you'll probably tell him that I'm his #1 fan.

QB is the position that takes the longest to develop. I want Shanny to groom a young QB and I don't want to waste any time getting started. The goal is to win the super bowl and we will never get close until we fix the QB problem. We had very good OT's for most of the last 10 years and didn't get anywhere with them becasue we never had a QB. However, I am not saying that i want to ignore the OL...i want to leave this draft with OL help and the long term answer at QB.

What if they end up with Favre and McNabb! That would be awesome.

I would like it if they signed Sage. He knows Kyle's offense and put up some decent games with the Texans.

After we get Sage we just need to swing a deal for Andre Johnson....then lookout!!!
