Going to get Cutler is the very definition of spinning our wheels in place.
The question becomes: how much is it worth to go out and get a QB that is not Jason Campbell, but doesn't change the type of situation that we have at the QB position? It sounds like a stupid question, and to an extent, it is. Cutler brings a totally different dynamic to the offense, but at the end of the day, will likely not be much more successful than Campbell will.
Problem is, the answer to the question appears to be a sizable amount. But only because the Redskins don't appear to be approaching this from an angle that makes any sense. They want to know how much it will cost them to get Cutler. The proper answer, speaking purely football, is "who cares?" We shouldn't even be discussing someone elses problem. But we're very serious about doing what it takes to get him here.
So we get Cutler. Super Bowl? Hardly. Franchise QB? Yes, but, at what cost?

Great post.
How much does the Skins organization have to give away to give Danny "warm fuzzys"
Campbell is just as likely to get us to the playoffs the next 3 years as Cutler....especially if we have a new Stud Olineman from the draft..
This whole trade for Cutler idea is idiotic.
Campbell has outstanding character...which is why we gave Denver a draft pick to get him in the first round.
Danny is an idiot...unless he gets him straight up...which aint gunna happen
