Re: Redskins and McNabb Agree to Contract Extension
Say what you guys want,but is the BEST move we could have made.
We have invested 2 draft picks in this guy for a 2nd and (3rd or 4th rounder) Now Shanahan can draft his future and Redskins future prospect whoever that will be and groom him behind McNabb. Instead of losing him to Free Agency and finding a way to fill the QB position and waiting for him to learn the offense or Sexy Rexy being our starter,we can now look to address the O-line,WR and what other positions of need in upcoming seasons. GREAT JOB BRUCE!! HTTR

5 years is perfect for McNabb...I see 2-3 years starting and 2-3 years backup with some sort of restructure for years 4-5...It looks like McNabb will end his career with us after all....and that is a very good thing. I am sure an older McNabb will certainly be as effective as an older Brunell. It seemed to work pretty well with Brunell and Campbell....but before you guys kill me....odds are the parallel future combo of McNabb and young QB yet to be determined will be far more effective....especially assuming our oline and aggressive playcalling improves over the next year or two. This also says a lot about Shanny's future....he is going to stick with McNabb for at least this year and next and probably 1 phase out year. That means Shanny has no plans to bail for at least 3 years...depending on how effective our new young QB pans out. Of course, I may be reading a bit much into this but I see this move as an AWESOME MOVE. Ya gotta finish what you started...and the skins just did that with McNabb. Don't worry...McNabb always responds well....he is a pro and an offensive leader...I expect him to play well tonight and going forward....regardless of the oline. A win would be a nice suprise to me tonight....as we have major issues on both lines and Vick is on fire.

This is the right move for the team. The redskins have never had success drafting QBs because of a. lack of stability at coach and b. lack of an O-line. (shuler, ramsey, campell). Even in Gibbs 1 - we won because of the O-line. They made the many QBs look good. (theisman, schrader, williams, rypien) DMAC is smart enough to give us a chance with an incomplete O-line. He's also a positive personality and most importantly a leader. JC never had that leadership quality and DMAC is a unifying force for the team. The knock on him is choking in big games - like an NFC championship of SB. When we get there we can worry about that. With this extension we have a legit QB and a legit coaching staff. We can put in place the O-line through the draft and the playbook which really takes 2-3 years. Once we have an O-line we can draft a young QB who can start 3-4 years from now. |
