Welcome your thoughts on the big trade?

I'd like to see the Redskins see if they can get anything in way of a trade from Moss and Hall (if we get Thomas). Despite many flaws, Hall had a notable season in 2010 and I am sure Moss can help a WR-starved team that may not have much cap room.

Despite this, I keep reading that the Skins are looking for depth in the secondary and not necessarily a starting corner. So who knows. It seems that the first order of business will be a #1 WR for RG3 to throw to. Hopefully a close second will be a replacement for Landry.

I might be in the minority, but love the trade, hate the price!

I think we can all agree that we needed a franchise QB for a long time, with that said, I think the price was outrageous. It seems we play just good enough to put out of contention for the QB we have all wanted for a very long time. I think RG3 will be a good fit in Shanny's O. I hope it works out for us, just cost alot. Would I do it??? Dont know... I hope the guys in chrage Allen, Shanny, and Snyder have a great understanding of this kid and what he can do. They get paid alot more than I do because they know more about the game than I do.

If it works out, I think it will be worth it, as the media guys say, it will be worth it if he can perform at a high level.... Only time will tell. I hoped Campbell was going to work out..... What is the boards thoughts on this trade?

I think you'd be in the majority of reasonable fans with this statement. And welcome to the board.

Can't see them getting any thing in trade for Hall or Moss. I think the depth they would provide we would be better off if we keep them.

I agree the WR is an issue we need, it seems they would catch the ball and fall down, what happened to YAC? Moss is the best we have at that. I still hope we can re-sign LL (he just needs to stay healthy).

Do you think if we gain Thomas we should trade Hall and Moss? I still think Moss has some left in the tank. Hall??? He drives me nuts, one game he plays great then its like it gets in head and has a brain fart.... IDK.... Would love some consistency on this team, as I am sure we can agree on that.

My only issue is that if we sign T. Thomas for example, are we paying him starting CB money? Probably yes. In that case you have Hall, Thomas, and Wilson. Unless there's a change of mind, my gut tells me that they'll probably sign a veteran CB for depth and focus on getting a replacement for Landry.

In terms of Moss, he would be nice for depth I guess, but I can us keeping either Gaffney or Moss, but not both of them.

I think Gaffney would/is a good possesion reciever, I do believe Moss is more explosive with RG3 coming aboard, I think he would be a better fit for the team.

As far as the money with the starting corner (I know this is terrible) I really don't care. Dan has a boat load, as long as we arent strapped in the future. I would like to have all three.... let them fight it out in camp.

Does anybody want to see LL back?

Welcome jayroc. Many people have expressed a similar sentiment including yours truly.

Welcome, Jayroc.

I have no problem with keeping both Gaffney and Moss. I think we need to sign a #1 receiver (playmaker) and move Moss to the slot. Moss should do well there.

Three starting-calbre CB's would be a good thing, IMO. They would all play a lot.

I don't want LL back because he won't have surgery on his achilles and the alternative treatments he tried didn't work. I just think he would miss a lot more games due to injury.

It wouldn't totally shock me if Moss, Banks, Austin, and Armstrong were all gone

Thanks and Agreed with the surgery deal.....I am not understading this, if I had an issue like that I would be tired of dealing with it..... He could be a real talent if he could get his head/body right.

Austin already?

Wow, you think so! To be honest I can see Armstrong and Banks, the other would sure surprise me! Goes back to what I said earlier, sure hope Allen and Shanny know what their doing.

I know we lost one more game than the year before, however I do believe the team is moving in the right direction. I hope so anyway!
