I personally feel that Washington, Miami, New York, and San Fran are very likely destinations. Even as Redskins fans, we have to at least consider that Snyder has thought about what it would take to get Manning.

There are a lot of positives for him here if he can play one or two more years. The skins could become instant superbowl contenders while still letting a young QB learn from the games best.

Manning might be beginning his coaching career at this rate. He only recently was declared healthy enough for another surgery back in early December. Not workouts but another surgery. And words like neck fusion don't exactly inspire confidence. Personally Manning should quit while he's ahead. He has the mind to continue his football life as a coach.

Its not hard for me to believe that Clausen could perform well in this offense and challenge for the starting job if invited to camp.
Look, if we don't draft a QB we're talking about beating out Rex Grossman. The same Rex Grossman that barely beat out a 3rd string QB with no mini-camp or OTAs last year.
Clausen is easily more physically talented then Rex Grossman.
I'm not fickle enough to believe the book of Clausen's career is written after 14 starts and I didn't even like him very much as a prospect coming out.

Heck, we should have gone after him last year.

I say Sanchez is either a

Seahawk
Brown
or Redskin

if he's traded

Actually, Sanchez' numbers this year in terms of QB rating and turnovers and number of wins all regressed from last year. He did not improve this year.

Whatever...

Are you saying that if the Redskins get Peyton Manning and keep the core of this roster as it is, they would become superbowl contenders in 2012?

If so, may I suggest that whatever you are ingesting into your bloodstream at the moment has to be illegal...

How was Rex vs. Beck any better?

You think there's a correlation between Shottenheimer leaving and Sanchez having a bad year (regressing). With the OL the Jets have they should be dominating, the play calling has been the shits and the WR's and RB's are way over rated. It was time for BS to go. I think Sanchez will have a rebirth despite what all the experts say.

Saturday I have no idea about so I can't speak to that. As for Manning, IF it happens, it only happens if he's released and will not stop them from getting a QB in the draft.

I agree if they trade for manning, but if he comes as FA then I am fine as long as he is heathly and we draft a QB to develop behind him. Right now we have to look at all options,if we can't trade up or think the price is too steep for either luck or griffin.

Thats makes much more sense than any type of trade for Saturday or Manning. That would make zero sense and simply would be retarded. Might as well over pay Reggie Wayne and get Edgerin James' number. If its any trade for a QB it should be to move up and take one of the prospects.....................or a 3rd for Hoyer. Bottom line is we need to draft a QB, maybe multiple QBs.
