Anyhow, it's basically a moot point. Orton looks like he's headed to Miami for a couple of high draft picks, or one and a player
A couple of high picks for Orton? I was hoping that we would get him but not for that price.

B/c we have the next Johnny U ready to step up behind center. Soon enough everyone will be singing the praises of Johnny B, the red-headed wonder!!

Plus, we would have to give up a 3rd rounder to get Orton.

QB is only 1 of the Skins problems. This team has too many holes to be much of a contender.

Even the packers had holes last year (OLB stands out IMO). You can have a couple of holes and still be a contender. Look at the colts, their team is junk without Manning. A good qb can take a team with a few holes far. If we get a WR, an interior lineman, a right tackle, get cullen jenkins, and resign buchanon we have enough pieces to be contenders if our qb can perform at a high enough level. Cullen, buchanon, the right tackle are all locks IMO. This is a completely hypothetical situational question. IF we fill enough holes, how far can Beck take us?

I read the question as its stated, how far can Beck take us, I didnt see where it said or implied if lots of holes are filled how far can Beck take us. You are correct, every team does have holes but the Skins have as many holes as a piece of Swiss cheese. This team isnt going anywhere. This is a 8-8 team at best.

Seriously. We are another two years of being 6-10 in my opinion. We have very few long term pieces in place on either side of the ball.

Resigning Grossman is no longer a part of the plan?

I'd say Beck 8-8 at best

Rex maybe 8-8

Clemens 1-15

Tom Brady 12-4

Re: How far can Beck take us?

I find it difficult to believe that Clemens will our only QB addition.

I suspect a trade for Orton: Haynesworth for Orton!

Or a Vince Young arrival in Ashburn.
