After the fiasco-Please no QB talk! ;-)
Now that we're past the madness of the past two days of love and hate for Campbell and Cutler can we now resume our regularly scheduled offseason already in progress?
Now that Daniels is officially back in the fray and Blache is talking about playing Wilson some at SLB what are your gnawing concerns going into these 3 weeks before the draft? How many starters are you hoping we come away with on draft day? |
Re: After the fiasco-Please no QB talk! ;-)
Great thread. I'm all for moving past the QB crap. I like the idea of moving Wilson to SLB...he's got good speed and I think he could develop into a very solid LB. My concerns moving forward are OT, DE and LB (there are no guarantees Wilson will work out at all). With the 13th pick, I think the Skins should seriously consider trading down and acquiring more picks. This might allow for them to fill 2 of the 3 pressing needs. Plus paying second rounders is much more cap friendly than the 13th overall pick.
HAIL! |

trade down. trade down. trade down.

Re: After the fiasco-Please no QB talk! ;-)
At least it was something to talk about. It was getting pretty desperate before the Culter story came along.
The offseason was taking its toll on the dull ass threads of the offseason. Revel in the excitement while you can because they are few and far between in the offseason. Don't ruin my major breaking news buzz. |
Re: After the fiasco-Please no QB talk! ;-)
Pssshhh. The QB controversy is only dead for as long as Danny wants it to be.
Hopefully he doesn't do anything rash before draft day. I think Rey has to be seriously considered now @ 13 w/ his impressive showing yesterday. Speed/explosiveness were the biggest concerns and he put them to rest for good. My bet is Oher and Rey are the best talents available @ 13 cuz the other top OTs will be gone as well as the real DE talent. I won't complain a bit w/ either man. What I will complain about is a trade-down scenario where we miss out on real impact talent and just get more projects like our young WRs, Rinehart, etc. You can't pass on top grade talent year after year and expect to compete in the NFL. ...on the other hand if we can just trade down a few spots and still get Oher or Rey along w/ another pick I'll jump for joy and call Vinny a genius (Danny's still a d-bag though regawdless.) |
Re: After the fiasco-Please no QB talk! ;-)
So let's assume we pick either Rey or Oher at #13. What's going to be the tougher transition, from ILB to OLB or from LT to RT? Either way we'd be drafting someone high and playing them out of position until their 'true' position opens up. Is that the best course of action for this year?

I've been on the Everrett Brown, Alex Mack, Clay Mathews, and Jason Smith band wagon for awhile.
I'll tell you what, I'll be glad if we get one of these guys. It would also be good if we got Rey, Orakpo, Cushing, Oher, Monroe, Wood, Barwin, or any other guy that is driven and has talent. I wouldn't even be totally pissed with Andre Smith or BJ Raji. As long as we don't trade away our picks for something nice and shiny or a QB. I've my fingers crossed they'll wait until next year to draft a QB. Hopefully they'll not have to. Go Soup, Todd, and Colt. |

By no means, it's just the most important pick in IMO. I want to trade down and get more second and third round guys personally. My point is that it would be just a waste to spend any pick on Cutler or anyone else at this point. Mack is a projected second rounder, so is Barwin. Wood might go in the third? Who know? I've also been keen on guys like Sidbury, Quinn Johnson, Joel Bell, Greg Isdaner, Cody Brown, Zack Follet, Duke Robinson, and Phi Loadholt. None of those guys are first rounders except Duke Robinson and that's a pull. This link is for all of you Rey and Mack fans. They have videos and reports of them.

Re: After the fiasco-Please no QB talk! ;-)
Lovin' this new thread...bottom line...score a solid OT and I'll be fine
|
Re: After the fiasco-Please no QB talk! ;-)
I just want a starter at either RT or SLB this year. Anything else would be gravy.
|
Re: After the fiasco-Please no QB talk! ;-)
If we can get one, I agree that OT is a pressing need. I am not sold on our ancient right side of the defensive line. I still think Blache only brought back Wynn and Daniels so he can draft a playmaking youngster who will be ahead of the learning curve with 20+ years of experience to help him along the way.

I dunno, Pete. I'd just hate to pass on a player who could be a 10-year starter. It just seems to me that if Andre Smith is there, then the Skins need to take him. I'm not sure that there's anybody the Skins wouldn't be able to pass on at the SLB position, so there's probably a greater than a 50% chance that the Skins will try to trade down. |
