I See QB Rumors (2012 QB Thread: The Sixth Sense)

How long until this thread intertwines with all the other threads of us getting RG3, Luck, Peyton being cut, we should draft ___, etc. etc. I'm already feeling another 45+ pager...

I was surprised at how critical he was of Rex. Somewhat refreshing. I came away from the interview feeling a lot better about Kyle Shanahan.

My favorite quote - "He kept both teams in most games."

He'll still be here even if he matches the record from last year. He's not going anywhere much like he wasn't going to fire Joe Gibbs either before his time. That said, we won't be having that type of record next year so it's a moot point. This team is getting better.

I would stay the course with our current coaches and schemes. Get a QB to build around and grow into a perennial contender from there.

And actually I wouldn't be stunned if he fell to 6 and we traded down.

Shanahan better invest in bullet proof vest or body guards if he does.

You talk about server shutdown(especially the idiots over on ES). I think that might do it even if the other trades you talked about didn't go through. Passing on RGIII at the #6. I would be laughing my ass off personally at the meltdown.

If we pass on Griffin at #6 then Mike Shanahan is officially a freakin moron.

Higskin · 01-29-2012, 07:31 PM

I think it's funny that a few months ago, it was "we're going to draft Andrew Luck" from Irsay.

Now he's saying, we planned to take Andrew Luck or Robert Griffin III, even if Manning was healthy, per PFT.

Not if he doesn't rate him high or he doesn't think he'll fit his system.

I have been "tuning in" to the Warpath for nearly 10+ years though not posting. This marks my first post.

I'm pretty excited about the prospect of picking up Bradford.

...I recall that Snyder was really keen on Bradford his draft year, and that the Skins brought him in to work him out...but as I recall he was simply ...out of reach.

Anybody else seem to remember how keen Snyder seemed to be about Bradford?

How is a "freakin" moron different from other types of morons?

theJBexperience · 01-29-2012, 07:45 PM

To get the rumor mill rolling again, I heard Bob Kravitz of The Indianapolis Star(the guy who did the Peyton Manning interview where he revealed he was unhappy w/ the Colts and paved the way for his release) on the Lebatard Show, and Kravitz gave the Skins a 25% chance of signing Peyton once he's released. He said DC was intriguing to Peyton because he remembers what Shanahan was able to with Elway late in his career, and of course, Peyton wants to go out on top with one last Super Bowl victory. Kravitz said there was an equal chance for us, the Cardinals, the Seahawks, and the Dolphins to land Peyton.

Not exactly... Even Irsay said that this QB duo can be compared to Manning & Leaf draft. Everybody thought Leaf is destined to stardom, just like Manning was.. If Shanny passes Griffin on through draft and then Griffin turned out to be a bust - Shanny will be genius. It is better to wait and see what Shanny's plan is and how it turns out before we call for his head, or name calling in this situation.

I know Snyder and Shanny were the only other team, besides Rams, to entertain Bradford at a pre-draft dinner. They apparently all hit if off according to Bradford.

BTW - been "tuning in" here as well and this thread tipped the scales for me too! Now, if I could only get to 10 posts so I can include links...LOL

Welcome aboard! Please take this time to fasten your seat belt and make sure your seat is back and folding trays are in their full upright position at all times. Enjoy your flight. :cool-smil

I don't recall hearing a peep from Snyder in regards to Bradford. Shanahan on the other hand must have loved Bradford to have wanted to jump from #4 to #1.
