What is Matt Flynn Worth to the Redskins

I'm with mlpertert on this one - who cares if DS wants to overpay. The only question that involves is "Will this signing inhibit or hurt our ability to be flexible under the cap?" If DS wants to pay big bucks but does so in a way that we can still sign guys to fill some other gaps - Yeah!! If signing Flynn means foregoing other signings, I am less enthused. If signing Flynn means giving up draft picks, I'm out.

Hadn't heard about the possibility of GB putting the franchise tag on Flynn. And wouldn't that be very expensive for a back-up QB?


It's only $16 or $17 million.

We should be signing the next Matt Flynn.
Correction.
We should have signed the next Matt Flynn last year.

But, who is the next Matt Flynn?

Chase Daniel **runs and hides**

I hear he has a SB ring. LOL.

For a QB that had one great game...lol


This isn't like Cassell's situation where he played good the whole year and got the team to 11 wins. They aren't going to franchise this guy, and nobody would pay him that type of money even if he were franchised.

They will prob franchise Finley (if there is no deal) instead of Flynn.

Flynn is more likely to be Kolb, Scott Mitchell, AJ Feeley, etc. than Schaub or Brees.. He's got a great team he's on and 4 years studying the system. I'm not sure he's got anything elite that he does that would be worthy of spending any real $ or picks on.

Agreed and by the time Kyle is through with him, he would be Ryan Leaf.

Reposted from the other thread because it fits better here:

I'll probably say this a lot between now and mid-March, but Chad Henne is younger, more proven and has better tools than Matt Flynn. See for yourself:

I'm not even sure I understand the argument for Flynn over Henne. We don't know how good Flynn is? The Packers are better at developing QBs than the Dolphins? A mixture of weak reasoning?

Henne should get at least one and a half times what Flynn gets in guaranteed money.
