[quote=SmootSmack;890627]Well QB is our biggest need and our biggest topic of conversation in the locker room.

Impression we've gotten is that people don't like thread to go on for 1000s of posts so instead of one never-ending QB thread, we'll keep doing it this way[/quote]

The first 9 QB threads were ok, but a 10th is just taking it way over the top!

[quote=SmootSmack;890624]Officially, not before March 13. Unofficially, as I type right now

Wonder what the voting would have been like if I did something like Griffin/J. Johnson instead of Griffin/Grossman or Manning/Tannehill

I really don't know which of the combos I listed I'd prefer, which is why I haven't voted yet.

On the one hand Griffin/Grossman is great but we're giving up a lot of draft picks potentially. On the other hand, Peyton freakin' Manning! (even if he's not 100% healthy, he's still one of the best QBs in the league)

Tough call[/quote]

To be completely honest, anything other than Griffin or Manning as our starting QB will be extremely depressing for me. Its time to make a big move for one of the most important positions.

I know this is was not a poll option, but I don't think its outside the realm of possibility that we could end up with Luck at #2. I know everyone just assumes the Colts will take Luck, but Griffin seems to be all the rage at the moment. Given the Colts are losing the majority of their offensive talent (manning, saturday, garcon, wayne), they may decide its in thier best interest to get a more athletic, mobile, playmaking QB. Lets be honest, the colts offensive line is horrible. Luck would get killed. I'm not saying its likely, but i definitely think its possible Luck would be available at 2.

I think the chance of the Colts passing on Luck are pretty remote. Could happen, but will it? Highly unlikely. They seem him as the next Manning and probably rightfully so, why would anyone pass that up?

The it wouldnt have matter what combo Griffen woulda been put with, but Peyton is probably your gonna end up as your second highest for the reason you listed. Look, I just want one or the other at this point...i would be happy with either.

What the percentage we get either? 50% 75%?

I agree. I want RG3 the most or a healthy Peyton. i do not want any of the second tier qbs being our number one qb next year.

I should have started with the 10th, done a few, and then later start with "The 1st QB Thread" Star Wars Prequel Style

This is how I see it, and how I think the Skins probably do too

Plan A: Griffin
Plan B: Manning
Plan C: Orton

Plan C will really really depress me. Orton is just Grossman spelled wrong.

maybe I have too much confidence/stupid hope but i think we will end up with one of the first 2. what about both?

I dont think the trade for the number 2 pick happens until after RG3s pro day

Just to add another twist to the mix (being the 10th iteration on the subject and all)....

If the deal to trade up to the second pick gets done early, is there any chance the front office may try to use the second pick to trade up to the first pick to land Luck?

I can live with Orton for the short term if Tannehill is being groomed behind him.

I would love for the Redskins to move up in the draft and select Robert Griffin III. Grossman as the backup is ok with me. If someone jumps ahead of the Redskins and snatches RGIII then I am ok with selecting Tannegill in the six slot and taking Kyle Orton in free agency. Since free agency happens first, I would sign Kyle Orton. The combination of RGIII/Orton would be ideal.

And give up even more picks? I wouldn't think so.
