SkinFanatic 10-27-2009, 11:21 PM I could see us doing this one of 2 ways. Campbell is a UFA after this season and may not want to come back. But if we were to address the other pressing positions, I think he would be okay another year. We arent going to be able to fix everything at once.
Assuming 2010 is an uncapped year the first thing the new GM needs to do is get into the free agent market which is pretty deep on the O-line. Unless there have been some recent contract extensions, 2010 FA Tackles are Charlie Johnson (Colts), Mike Gandy (Cards), Marcus McNeil (Chargers). Guards Chris Snee and Rich Seubart both from the Giants. I don't know what kind of depth there is in the draft on the O-line, but we need depth, so a combination of free agency and draft prospects are going to be important.
I know alot of you guys like Portis but we probably need to shop for an RB, Cadillac Williams, Ricky Williams, Darren Sproles are on the FA lists. I think QB really should be addressed by what type of offense the new HC runs, But Kellen Clemens, Daunte Culpepper and Tavaris Jackson would be good choices.
IMO, the big question here is, who can we get for a GM that 1.) will take the job, and 2.) has a strong enough spine to stand up to the Danny. Any suggestions?
poopoobigelow 10-27-2009, 11:30 PM a point for and a point against bradford...
for: the big knock on him, at this point, is his durability... the last phenom to come out of oklahoma with durability questions was adrian peterson... look how that turned out for everyone that passed on him...
against: the list for shotgun spread offense QBs that have put up huge numbers in college that have been successful in the NFL is very short...
SFREDSKIN 10-28-2009, 12:02 AM .I'm sick of JC but our choices suck.
Charlie Batch, Pittsburgh Steelers (34)
Kyle Boller, St. Louis Rams (28)
David Carr, New York Giants (30)
Kellen Clemens, New York Jets (26)
Daunte Culpepper, Detroit Lions (32)
Jeff Garcia, Oakland Raiders (39)
Rex Grossman, Houston Texans (29)
Joey Harrington, New Orleans Saints (30)
Tarvaris Jackson, Minnesota Vikings (26)
Jon Kitna, Dallas Cowboys (36)
Matt Moore, Carolina Panthers (25) – Restricted FA
Patrick Ramsey, Tennessee Titans (30)
Brett Ratliff, Cleveland Browns (24) – Exclusive Rights FA
Troy Smith, Baltimore Ravens (25) – Restricted FA
I rather have JC than anyone of this list including Clements. I say trade for Rosenfelds or Tyler thigpen, even Brady Quinn out of Cleveland or Matt Leinart would be better choices.
skins89moss 10-28-2009, 12:36 AM If we were to stick with the WCO, then I would sign a veteran QB that knows the WCO. I would draft another QB in the second or third round that I think would be a fit for the WCO and begin to groom him. Whatever veteran that we signed would battle Colt Brennan for the starting position. The drafted guy would get a full 3 years to learn the WCO before he even gets a chance to compete for the starting job.
If we are going to start over from scratch on offense then I am going to use my second pick in the draft for a QB if I have multiple first round selections. If I only have one first round pick, then I will wait until year two to use my first rounder on a QB. From day one the first round draft pick QB will be the starter.
In both of these scenarios I use the majority of the early picks to focus on the offensive line.
We dont have a 3 round pick this coming draft. Used it on Jeremy Jarmon in Supplemental Draft.
skins89moss 10-28-2009, 12:39 AM I say go sign Garcia to a 2 year deal why we build the olines. Then we go after Matt Barkley in 2012
Thats a gamble to wait and hope to draft Matt Barkley who's just a freshman.
skins89moss 10-28-2009, 12:43 AM whoever said sign garcia to a 2 year deal and go after barkley in two years has the best Idea...good QB's are going to be coming out every year like it or not...you can't fall in love with any ONE but we desperately need O LINE help. We need to be spending our first rounder on a stud left tackle...then another CENTER that knows how to snap...and we need a right tackle and a right guard...so basically our next two years we have our first 2 rounds slated for OLINE! Then we can think about a QB...maybe try a project in round 4 of this years draft...you know...sense we gave up our 3rd rounder for a guy who plays about 5 snaps a game in Jeremy Jarmon...who has "tons of upside". I'm tired of drafting guys with upside...why can't we get playmakers at day one.
Look at the Ravens...they have drafted OLINE heavily in the first rounds for what...the past five years...and look at how productive they are know. You have to deal with a few years with a shitty QB to build up an oline that's going to dominate...then any QB can succeed...even jason campbell. Although I don't feel JC is the answer...at least in this offensive scheme. and neither is CB for that matter...but man Barkley is looking like the next brady and manning to me.
Garcia huh. He out their now sitting on the couch. The Eagles let him go and the Raiders did not want Jeff Garcia. With that said he is not the best option or we are done for several years with that noodle arm QB.
skins89moss 10-28-2009, 12:54 AM LOL. I knew you'd say him
I think it's very possible that Campbell returns, but probably not likely. Even if he's not an unrestricted free agent, I wouldn't be surprised if the Redskins simply don't tender him. Campbell seems like a great guy, and potentially a solid QB. And yes the OL issues have not helped him, although last night was the first time I thought the line was really awful this season (in other games they've been average to below average). Still, my own unprofessional observations tell me there are things he is not doing right. And I've listened to too many ex-NFL QBs basically say "The OL issue is a crutch. Campbell needs to step it up and take charge." He hasn't often enough and so I think his time is unfortunately up here. It's been mentioned many times before, but when you look at what Rodgers is doing with a brutal line in Green Bay you have to ask yourself why can't Campbell do the same?
If Gruden does actually become our next head coach, I could see the Redskins making a push (trade) for a veteran QB like Kellen Clemens or maybe even Matt Moore and then take someone like Zac Robinson or even Jevan Snead in the 2nd round (or 3rd if we can trade back into that round). Or even Rusty Smith...or John Skelton (but he's not really a Gruden type in my opinion).
This is what I think will actually happen. I think as much as my Gruden source says no he won't coach the Redskins I have a feeling he will (or maybe it's just wishful thinking because I don't want Shanahan), Matt Millen would probably just slide into Gruden's role on MNF, Gruden will go OL in the first 2 rounds, he'll sign or trade for some veteran like Clemens that could start for a year, and he'll draft someone like a Zac Robinson to start by 2011. And he'll find a way to bring in Tebow to replace Mike Sellers :)
If Gruden isn't the coach, or maybe even if he is, I think we take Jimmy Clausen. (in my best Jaws voice) I've gone back and watched every offensive play this season of the top QB candidates and there's something special about Clausen. I'd take him with the first pick in the draft and stock up on OL the rest of the draft (and a RB somewhere)
I also hope if we making a coaching change its John Gruden. We need a no nonsense coach who will get in this teams ass. As for JC I dont see him a good fit for the WC offense so if thats the offense we keep running next season I dont want him as our QB.
skins89moss 10-28-2009, 12:58 AM I believe Kellen Clemens will be a free agent,wouldnt need to trade for him.I dont want us to draft a qb high and i dont like the list of free agent qbs.I'm sick of JC but our choices suck.

I think Tarvaris Jackson probably has the most upside.I dont know anything about Matt Moore.
I would like to see us draft a qb in the lower rounds,trade out high draft pick for more picks for more off lineman,let Todd Collins and Colt battle it out for the starting job and next yr be a rebuilding yr.Thats what I would like to see happen,but With todays win now attitude I dont see that happening
I like the Jackson choice because he comes from a WC offense in Minnesota and he is mobile. He also is young but has some starts under his belt.
Matt Moore can not beat out Jake Delhomme enough said.

You don't let your drafted QB compete for 3 years? Jesus man....
skins89moss 10-28-2009, 01:06 AM As we all can see from watching , the O-line is awful. We can not spend our possible high draft pick on a QB. We need to either trade down for more picks , but we must take the best O-lineman available. If we can get extra picks to move down than we should do it to draft a QB in the later rounds. We need Olineman and a young RB ( Im thinking CJ Spillers out of Clemson) in the later rounds. We dont have a 3rd so we need to get a 3rd round pick by either trading a vet or sliding down in the draft. We also could use a MLB to groom behind London, not sure HB Blades is the answer. I say go with a veteran QB maybe Tavarius Jackson or David Carr and let Colt Brennan get his shot. Its time for JC to take his nice guy act to another city. He just doesnt lead this team like we need at the QB positon.
