Is it finally time to rebuild??

I really dont know what to do with McNabb. Trading him seems the most likely scenario, but i wonder what his perceived value is out there now that two coaches (Reid, Shanahan) have essentially given up on him as a starter.

I would think that best-case scenario, McNabb fetches a 4th round pick from a desperate franchise. (Only Oakland comes to mind, possibly Arizona). At worst he gets a 5th round that we might could use to find an offensive lineman. I think Linemen are the skins' most pressing need after basically being ignored for the past few seasons.

I don't know Portis' contract situation. I think this year was his final year, so I dont know if he could be traded. I guess its possible that Portis could be resigned at a lower price so that he could be a backup, but i am just guessing at this point. I also don't think Shanahan is very happy with CP right now because of his comments (Jeez who would have figured he'd mouth off again).

I just hope we can do something through the draft. That's what we've been missing for a decade now. This team under Snyder has never drafted that great, it's always been big money, aging free agents.

I do think Shanahan is changing the culture though. Before he arrived, and even with Gibbs to a certain degree, the highest paid player was played, regardless of his ability (or lack thereof). Now it seems like we are finally trying to put the best players on the field, regardless of their contracts...
