The point is, hindsight being what it is, Campbell would have given us just as good, if not better results than the three stooges that have started since.

Arguably the biggest fallacy of this franchise during Snyder's tenure is shipping away draft picks/spending huge $ for past their prime big name vets. And that's just how Shanny kicked off his era in DC, and it was a massive failure. Would it have been so bad to keep a guy who knows the team and the organization and would cost nothing in picks or drama to keep in the fold?

I wonder why I even bother trying to use simple concepts that simpletons refuse to try to understand. Someone here already went into an emotional turtle shell because of the superiority of intuition over any systemic evaluation on players. Utility - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Shanahan could have traded away Campbell without having to grab McNabb. Since Campbell was in a contract year, it would be better than letting him walk for nothing or re-signing a QB whose stock was only going down. Jason Campbell was deemed insufficient to pilot this offense, and they got whatever little value he had left.
