I don't think he had the leadership qualities that this team needed but I am thankful how he stood up in the face of some terrible situations.

i'm with you, i wasn't the biggest jc fan but he had a raw deal here and after last off season i was in his corner and wish him all the best

Raw deal? So now we say when a guy gets paid over 11 million if he is not treated like the best QB in the world he gets a raw deal. Hell it was the Skins and Gibbs that gave JC a chance and he should be greatful that we did. He had every chance in the world to show he was a starting QB but he failed in my book. Now because we have let him go he gets another two year deal worth around 8 million. So now he could fail there and when it all said and done earned 18 million in 7 years. Raw deal my ass.

These are my exact sentiments. I called into B.Mitch's show about two or three weeks ago, they were dedicating an hour talking about Jason Campbell. It was the weekend of of the McNabb trade, whenever that was.

Anyway, me and BMitch sort of got into it about how Jason was "treated" and how he got a raw deal. He was going on and on trying to talk me down, you know. The other guy on the show was a prick too. I basically said the same thing you just said, when the Redskins drafted Campbell in the first round, he got his shot. Sure the conditions weren't always perfect here, but God damn son welcome to the NFL! It was funny, they were still talking trash after I hung up. It was a good exchange no doubt.

I wish the Campbell the best and I hope he lights it up in Oakland.

I actually feel like we got good value for JC...for months I've thought he basically had zero trade value.

...I wish him the best in Oakland. Mostly I hope he doesn't get as beat up as he has the last couple years behind our porous line.

I'm guessing the pick was in 2012 because Shanny didn't want a pick in next years draft what with the uncertainty of the CBA and lockout potential, etc., in 2011.

There should be rules about trading future draft picks. 2012? C'mon.

Word. Personally I expect 2012 to be our last year on earth which is hardly enough time to develop a 4th rd player.

LOL... Yeah I'm real disappointed that its not an immediate addition. But it puts things in perfect perspective regarding JC's value. To keep the peace I'll leave it at that.

well the mayans did not predict the end of the world, just the end of the world as we know it, so perhaps they knew that the Redskins would finally end these losing years and finally get back to winning in 2012.

Is anyone on the same page with the details of this trade? Is it a conditional 2011 pick or 2012 4th rounder?

What did those 3 picks we gave up to get Campbell amount to?
