The humor on this board is sometimes overwhelming. JC is just as bad, or equal to Grossman. There I said it. JC made bad decisions, JC was not accurate on the long ball, JC needed all day to throw, JC might have been able to scramble better then Grossman I'll give you that, but otherwise his down side was similar to Grossmans and it would have taken him more then one offseason to learn the scheme... ie; McNabb. Grossman knew more then JC in regards to the scheme he just needed the WR's and OL to catch up to him. Now that they are close in understanding the scheme getting a better QB is in order.

Re: 2012 redskins

JC-to-McNabb was a lateral move. A foolish, costly lateral move, but still a lateral move. Had we kept JC, patience with him would be wearing very thin by now and he might have lost out to Grossman anyway, just like McNabb.

Actually your right. But VA can't get a NFL team cause Snyder wants to claim it will take away from his revenue. So no pro team for VA. They have had their home office in VA for years. DC wants the team playing in DC again, I'd be ok with that. I guess even if they decided to make the stadium their home office but I'm getting tired of Maryland wanting to take everything. They have the Ravens. Let the Redskins stay in DC or VA.

Really makes me wonder why Gibbs was so fascinated with Campbell. When he was at Auburn, I could never see anything that would lead you to conclude that he would become even an average NFL QB. That's one that I will probably never understand.

Re: 2012 redskins

Given the choice I'd gladly take JC over Grossman. JC might not be a game breaker (neither is Grossman), but he's not going to kill you with INTs either. He's an efficient game manager that can win games in this league with a supporting cast. Sooner or later Grossman will kill you with a crucial INT or fumble.

Gibbs thought very highly of Rypien and Williams. He saw qualities in them that he saw in Campbell.

Re: 2012 redskins

One guy that hasn't been mentioned is WR Malcolm Floyd out of Notre Dame... I know a lot of people on here are in love with Justin Blackmon... but Floyd is a monster. Great size, strong as an Ox, can leap, and has great hands.

I've liked him since last year.

When is he supposed to go? Late 1st?

I seriously doubt we end up with him... but I think he's going to be a good pro.

Many said the same about Golden Tate, in fact who was the Last ND WR to even be good in the NFL? Tim Brown?

Floyd is a much better prospect than Tainte. Floyd got enough talent to go top 10. Anything after the first round for Floyd would be an epic steal.

I've thought about him and Kendall Wright.

Wouldn't it be sweet to take a QB at sevenish and then trade back into the late first round to get Floyd or Wright?

It's Michael Floyd. Malcolm Floyd is a Charger WR.

JC may be slightly better than he appeared based on his collegiate performance, but not by much. My view of him is slightly below average, but that's not really the point. Regardless, average or just below, neither category explains Gibbs' fascination nor the Redskins' investment in him!

I would have crapped on this comment two years ago, but watching Mike and Kyle work with these quarterbacks, I tend to think you're right. Campbell wouldn't have improved under Kyle Shanahan the way he improved under Hue Jackson. He would have just remained frustrating and have lost playing time to Rex Grossman.

Which, of course, would have been a way better course of action than we've actually gone.

Re: 2012 redskins

It would be nice to have the 2nd round pick we used to trade for McNabb, We could have gotten Gronkowski, Taylor Mays, Ben tate, Sean lee, or terrance cody with that pick.

I know I shouldn't on the could haves.
