Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice
Let's have a direct discussion. If you're the Redskins who do you pick? Why? Do you pay the King's Ransom for the 2nd pick to pick the Hesiman trophy winner? Should you lure the former MVP and use the draft/ free agency to build a team around him.
You can't pick both as Rich Tandler has pointed out Redskins must choose between Manning, Griffin - Rich Tandler's Real Redskins Great offseason discussion!

Re: Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice
Griffin. Definitely.
Otherwise you are mortgaging some of your future (There are NO guarantees we can land a franchise QB next year or the year after or...) for a MAYBE in Manning. Don't get me wrong... I'll be ectsatic if we land Manning... But I REALLY, REALLY, want OUR OWN P or E Manning / Brady / Rodgers / Brees / Roethlisberger / C Newton / Franchise QB.... One to be ours for 10-15 years of greatness.

Re: Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice
RG3. 2-3 years with an older and fragile QB is not how we get our franchise back to winning regularly. We do it through building through the draft with smart FA pieces to help out.

Re: Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice
You would have to go with RGIII simply because of his age.

Re: Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice
I disagree with some of Tandler's assumptions. I think we still could have both.
But since the OP said choose only one, I take the long-term promise of RGIII.

Re: Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice
Man, another QB thread? How many variations of scenarios do we need specific threads for?

Re: Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice
Defense. CBs/Safeties/ILB
OL - right tackle, OG, C This team has more holes than just the QB.

S/N: Does this mean I can't start a thread to discuss a scenario where we trade down, pick up 4 2nd round picks, and use them to draft Tannehill, Foles, Cousins, Weeden, and Osweiler, and thus create Lotus' Long Term Backup Barn 2.0?

Re: Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice
... Hey you stole that approach from cerrato- the "if you throw enough sh*t at the wall something's bound to stick" method of drafting. It looks like Fred Davis proved he was the sh*t from that class of receivers.
