Edwards or Rogers/Campbell

I'm happy with Rogers. I think that he can make more of an impact than any receiver we could have gotten. I wish me could have traded the Campbell pick to go up and get Matt Jones. That is a guy who I think could make a difference but still not cost us to much.

I don't know much about our late round picks, but it sounds like we did well with them. Is that right?

I didn't like the pick at first, but the more I think about it...
I think that drafting Campbell says more about Gibbs's opinion of Brunell than about his opinion of Ramsey. Brunnell will never again push or overtake Ramsey as starting QB. Hasselbeck is a good emergency QB, but that's his limit... he'll be gone soon one way or another.
Gibbs had to bring Campbell in to push or supplant Pat in the next year or two. The real question is... would Frye or McPherson, have been a better choice?

Yeah. Frye and McPherson (minus the character issues) were arguably better prospects. To trade down from twenty-five made sense if the team was determined to draft a QB. :oink:

I was keeping my fingers crossed until Cleveland picked Edwards cuz I was worried about the FO doing something else retarded and wasting all of those picks for a very slight upgrade over Gardner. I'm not totally upset about the 2 selections in the first round but I am still dumbfounded that they passed on Williams dispite how pathetic our offense was last year and the public statements about addressing our offense in the draft. I think the only thing that I hate about the cambell selection is that it cost us next year's 1st round selection to get him.

Think of it this way. By the time next year's draft rolls around, Campbell will already have a year of NFL experience under his belt and will be that much further along in his development. That year of experience may be more valuable to the Redskins than the possible draft position loss. He'll be developmentally ahead of the QB we might have been forced to draft next year.

This is a good way to look at it, but I am still of the belief that we already have our future QB in Ramsey and would have been better served spending that 1st round pick on a weapon to help him as opposed to his eventual replacement.

I think drafting Campbell will make Ramsey a better QB.

I would have rather just taken Carlos Rogers and not had the trade period, if that is an option. I didnt want to trade up to get Edwards (five picks would have been given up just to get him); but I didnt want what happened to play out, I would rather have a first round pick next season.

I opened my first beer and fired up the grill after Cleveland made their pick.
