I know a few here think Campbell may not be our long term answer because of his winning record....However, I do believe he is solid and will improve.

The best time to buy is when perceived value is low.
The last thing we want to do is wait until after he has a breakout year to double his value.

At worst, he will not improve...which is still better than any QB the Skins have had since Brad Johnson...(excluding Collins' 4 game push and Brunell for a short time)

What do you think?
Should we use our 07 cap space to lock up JC?

Schneed....what is his likely value now and can it work with the cap space we have?

Well folks...most respondants to this offseason thread wanted to wait and see before extending Campbell....
The first quarter of the year is over....

I say...time to extend Campbell, what do you think now?

We need to do it sooner than later.

I agree do it on the plane ride home from Dallas haha!

He has proven himself anyway but after he lead the team and beat the cowgirls yessir extent him

Campbell is playing with so much poise right now, yet we need to remember that he's only beginning to grasp the WCO. The more successful he becomes, the more he can demand for his next contract. I don't know what the cap situation looks like, but if we can extend Campbell's contract during the season, we should.

While we're at extend Zorn all those assisstant years have paid off this guy can coach!

All great points, this is why we need to do this now. If we wait and he continues to get better in this offense, Dan will be writing his biggest check since he bought the team.

Ooooh, I want to say yes, but let's wait until the playoffs. No need to be hasty.

Slingin Sammy 33 · 09-28-2008, 10:29 PM

I'd wait 'til the off-season. Yes Snyder will write a bigger check, but a distraction right now is not what we need.

Mattyk72 · 09-28-2008, 10:37 PM

If this keeps up I would definitely look to extend him at some point during the middle of the season.

firstdown · 09-28-2008, 10:42 PM

I agree with most but hey our line gave him the time he today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hail to the skins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's time to extend Jason Campbell. Do they have to get it done this week? No. But they should pay him sometime this season.

I completely agree. He's only four games removed from a season where he threw 11 INTs to only 12 TDs and led the league in fumbles. He looks awesome and is proving he's a 1st round talent right now, but I think we should wait a bit.

That Guy · 09-28-2008, 10:57 PM

he may want to wait, see, he has a definite interest in playing well and maxing his value, it's not just a team centric view.

i believe they hit it up in the offseason. mid season might be a distraction, and there's still arguments on his total value (not from me though). if we could sign him right now, i would, but i don't think that's going to happen till our season is over.

Any question now on whether to extend JC??? I think we need to work on this deal now!
