[quote=NC_Skins;882750]Joey T is a dumbass. It's not like they would be trading for him, and there is nothing that says they wouldn't draft a rookie QB even if they did bring him in. In fact, I'm quite certain that if he is brought in, expect a rookie QB to be drafted as well.[/quote]

I agree 100%.

BTW we are talking about Peyton Freaking Manning!!!! Who would have thought even during the lockout that PM may be a Redskin in 2012?

NO ONE on this site or any where in the country for that matter.

All of this PM talk is getting me a little excited with anticipation and I need to back it down a little so I am not upset if this whole thing does not happen.

Re: The "Inside Word" on the QB Search
 

if we get a QB in FA, I'd look at blackmon or claiborne (or OL or maybe even RGIII) at #6, then fill QB in the 2nd or whatnot.

[quote=theJBexperience;882748]So, during a Joe Theismann interview today, the Lebatard Show reported that we'll be signing Peyton Manning once he's released. They cited a source, so I did a search but could only find this: [url=http://tracking.si.com/2012/02/06/peyton-manning-may-want-to-play-for-redskins-if-released/]Peyton Manning May Want To Play For Redskins If Released | SI Tracking Blog – Tracking the MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, and NCAA On Twitter[/url]

They asked Joe Theismann his thoughts, and he was pretty upset and surprised the Skins hadn't learned anything from the McNabb debacle. He feels it's time to draft a QB and groom him to be our guy. I agree.[/quote]

The mistake was not drafting a couple young QBs in waiting. The McNabb debacle was worth the risk, but Shanny should have had a younger guy or 2 behind McNabb learning Kyles system. We can get Peyton, if healthy, and draft a couple guys this year.

If Peyton Manning is released, Redskins are expected to pursue him. Redskins also prepared to pursue free agents Matt Flynn and Kyle Orton.

Well he's also said he thinks the Dolphins are the favorites to land him.

You do understand that this is different then "Peyton wanting to play for the Skins" ,right?I fully expect the Skins to go after any and all but Peyton will not play for the Skins for many of the reason given but biggest one is that Shannahans will not turnover control of the O to him and that's not whay Peyton does.(money is not an issue)

Re: The "Inside Word" on the QB Search
 

If we sign a healthy PM beleive me we are going OL in FA & Draft without a doubt.

I heard that as well but I still say don't count out the Cardinals.

Lebatard brought up the same point, and Theismann said there was no way Peyton would let that happen. He's not going to be grooming his replacement. He went on to talk about how Peyton is a control freak, and he'll run his offense, not Kyle's, and this could be really bad for the Skins. He seemed like he was in complete disbelief.

Joey T doesn't know a god damn thing about Peyton. Did he coach him? Was he working for the Colts? He's really talking out his ass. Joey T doesn't want another QB to come to Redskins and overshadow his legend.

Wow. Theismann just re-tweeted me.

Stugotz reported it like it was breaking news, so Theismann reacted. I guess now he realizes it was just rumors and unlikely ones.

Re: The "Inside Word" on the QB Search
 

This is pretty funny. There are Vegas odds on where Manning goes. :rofl:

New York Jets - 2/1
Miami Dolphins - 3/1
Washington Redskins - 4/1
Seattle Seahawks - 5/1
Arizona Cardinals - 6/1
Baltimore Ravens - 7/1
Houston Texans - 9/1
San Francisco 49ers - 10/1

Well if he goes to the jets, ravens, cardinals or texans that makes all of there starters available and at a very discounted price IMO.

One thing about JoeyT that I like is he stays in touch with the fans.
