Can Colt Brennan beat Rex Grossman for number 2 spot

I wanted to change pace a little with all the McNabb talk and look at the second string QB position. Grossman vs. Brennan... sure it could be said that Colt might not even make it on the roster, in this scenario lets say he does. How can he leapfrog Grossman? I know if I was Colt I would be sitting in Kyle's hip pocket and practicing everyday like it's my last.

I know nothing about Colt's work ethic or film study skills, but with Campbell on his way out the door this is the best time for Brennan to step it up. I want to hear from the fans that know this kid really and can explain it to me if he has what it takes to make a difference as the back up for the redskins.

Re: Can Colt Brennan beat Rex Grossman for number 2 spot

This is the sort of nonsense i only expect to find on ES.

Brennan has a 0.00% chance to be our #2 QB.
Brennan has a 0.01% chance to be our #3 QB.

So I think the more appropriate question would be:

Can Colt Brennan convince Shanahan to devote 4 roster spots to the QB position to ensure that Brennan has a 1% chance to be the 4th QB?

^ what has been an indication to you that after bringing in McNabb and with the limited amount of draft picks that they will STILL spend a pick on a QB? I think honest you are way off base here...

Shanahan is going to want to draft his own project QB. I'm certain we'll acquire more picks before the draft, but if we just go through the draft with the picks we have, we'll probably spend our 4th or 5th round pick on a QB. If we acquire more picks, I think its possible we select one earlier.

We wouldn't have brought in Grossman if we were planning on keeping PJ15. Brennan is a goner.

Meh. They're both doo doo. One of them won't be on the 53 man, because we're going to bring a rookie QB into the fold.

Re: Can Colt Brennan beat Rex Grossman for number 2 spot

I dissagree, we have 2 many other pressing needs and in the press conference shanny relates McNabb to Elway, and Steve Young. I think the line, WR, and the defense will be the priority now in Washington.

Re: Can Colt Brennan beat Rex Grossman for number 2 spot

I have been a Colt fan since we got him. I believe he has great potential to be a great QB. I also believe he has more raw talent than Grossman BUT... Like BHA stated "Shanahan is going to want to draft his own project QB"

I for one would love to see Colt get a shot as a Skin. And hope he does beat Grossman for a place in the lineup.

Re: Can Colt Brennan beat Rex Grossman for number 2 spot

I don't want either of these guys to see the field and hope they bring back JC as the #2. Chances are McNabb isn't going to make if for all 16 games and the back up may have to play a couple of games. Grossman is horrible and I can't believe they even signed him.

umm Campbell will likely be moved.. if not Brennan probably won't make it

if he is, Brennan has a good shot unless we draft somebody

there's no need to trim down the number of QBs yet

Sure, it's possible. He basically has to be the backup or be gone. I really don't think he'll be the #3 because I'm not convinced that Shanahan and son see him as the longterm QB they want to develop. Could be wrong though

No. There is no chance. Brennan will be out of football very soon.

if he's out of the NFL (doubt it) he can probably find something in the UFL

Re: Can Colt Brennan beat Rex Grossman for number 2 spot

I have to disagree with most of you guys. Sure we may draft a QB but, it might not be this season. There is a good chance Colt will make into the season at the 2 or 3 spot.
