Smith said he thought it was in the Redskins’ interest to extend McNabb “because they gave up a high [second-round]” draft pick to the Philadelphia Eagles (plus another choice in 2011) in the trade. The Eagles and Redskins announced the trade on Sunday night.

Contract talks are Smith’s area and that is where his client would like to leave them.

“I don’t focus on that,” McNabb said. “But I do expect to be here, to be here for years to come.”

That seems like the Redskins’ plan as well. They do not view McNabb as a quick fix but as a long-term solution.
