Re: Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice

If RGIII is that franchise QB, I don't care about Riley Reiff, Manti Te'o, Alfonzo Denard, or Andersen "The Spider" Silva. A franchise QB makes all those holes disappear so I send my 1st rounder in 2012 and 2013, as well as a 3rd this year and a 4th next year for my QB and we are still left with:

2nd, 4th, 4th, 5th, 7th plus FA. You mean to tell me we can't fill holes with that? I don't want Manning.

Shameless self-promotion. It is what it is.

So you want to piss away draft picks, and sign big name FAs? If that doesn't wreak of Vinny, I don't know what is. After a decade of doing business that way, you'd think that you would have learned a lesson by now. I guess it's that battered spouse syndrome.

Most smart teams build their team via draft and supplement via FA. We have been doing the opposite up until this past year. I like the new way.

Yeah, me too. I'm tired of being the SB champs of the offseason.

"Insanity is repeating the same mistakes and expecting different results".

The Skins have repeated the same mistake for 11yrs. They shift one year and do something different with good results and everyone gets withdrawls and wants to return to the Skins of old.

To be clear though, it's not the quarterback that makes all those holes disappear, its the winning. And the holes are always going to be there. Doubly so if you don't do much winning.

Nice, except it's being reported it would be more like 1st rounder in 2012 and 2013, as well as a 2nd rounder in 2012 and a 3rd rounder in 2013.

Now add to that the Browns, and Miami and whoever else would like to have him deciding to add a pick or two here and there just to take it out from under the Skins trying to move up.

No thanks. I'd prefer to have the picks, hope PM gets healthy enough to play, and if not use Tannehill, Wilson, Weeden or whoever.

This guy gets it. We can plug all the holes we want but until we have a franchise QB we are not even in the game.

We have the 6th pick now and and the good fortune of the #2 overall pick being held by a team that doesn't need a QB. We will never have a better chance to get our hands on a franchise QB. I would love to have a year or 2 of Peyton while RG3 learns but if I have to pick I am going with 10+ years of RG3 over 2 years of Peyton.
