And with the 6th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, the redskins select...........

Trade 2 firsts, 2 seconds, 1 third, Jamaal Brown, DHall, Santana to Indy for the first pick. If they don't accept it add in Orakpo. If they don't accept that then f*ck em! We'll take..I dunno who.If they don't accept, let's put a poison pill in Dan Orlovsky's contract! Time to play hardball.

Orlovsky might actually be the best FA QB that no one actually wants. Even better than Rex, who, at least I think no one wants.

If they don't accept, let's put a poison pill in Dan Orlovsky's contract! Time to play hardball.

I'm being half joking/half serious..now what do you think?

I swear, these articles sometimes make it sound like we got Bruce Smith and Deion Sanders last year. :doh:

Four of the top-QBs selected in the 2011 draft were picked in the first half of the draft (Newton 1st, Locker 8th, Gabbert 10th, and Ponder 12th overall). Andy Dalton followed being selected 35th overall, in the 2nd round. It seems like a shortage of "elite" talent to go around in this year's draft. Still, only a few teams will need to reach for a QB in the first round as they'll have prospects that play other positions rated higher on their draft boards. The Skins are in a good position to get one of the top three QB prospects having leverage to trade down from 6th overall since there is a perceived "dropoff" in talent when comparing Luck and Griffin III to fill in the blank.

since when did the skins have the 5th pick?

A typo thanks.

For me, it's always informative to hear what the great Joe Gibbs has to say about the Redskins:

"Generally for me the number one thing you want to try to do, whatever the cost, is try to solve the quarterback situation, get that thing solidified," he said during an appearance on ESPN 980. "I think the Redskins are going through that process, [to find] a solid starter that’ll be in there every game for them, somebody they really can say can take them to the promised land."

I just glad that Joe took the time to back me up on this issue.

Now, with the authority of the great Joe Gibbs behind me, I'm going to tell you what the Skins are going to do about the QB position and what they are not going to do about it this offseason. You wouldn't argue with the great Joe Gibbs, would you? Of course not! So don't argue with me.

1. The Skins are going to get a long-term starting QB this season.
2. They are not going to put a band-aid on the position for another season.
3. They are going to pick a QB in this draft, whether or not they sign a FA or trade for a veteran to be the starter.

Joe Gibbs and I have spoken! So let it be written. So let it be done.

It has to be realized that the Skins would have to have a trade partner for such a high pick.
