What is Matt Flynn Worth to the Redskins

[IrMitchell]

Getting Matt Flynn would be what the old Redskins would do. We're drafting a quarterback, and if he sucks then we'll suck, but we've gotta do it the right way.

Matt Flynn smells of Scott Mitchell.

Yes I am showing my age.

I actually would not mind having Flynn to provide competition. But Flynn likely would be very expensive, thus hampering competition and the development of a rookie.

If we really liked Barkley from USC then Flynn would make sense 4 year contract get Barkley next yr he sits for 2-3 years knows the system in and out.

This. A 1,000 times this. If Flynn is your guy then sign him. If RGIII is your guy then trade up for him. Just get someone that will help us win a Super Bowl. Still it would be nice to say DC, home of Ovechkin, Strasburg, Wall, and RG3.

Most unfair. Scott Mitchell was a guy who had trouble staying in shape and who became gun-shy after about two good hits in a game. Matt Flynn may not be the world-beater that he looked like last Sunday, but he has worked hard and studied hard to get where he is. That alone makes him more than Scott Mitchell was.

How about AJ Feeley?

Ok. But how do you know that your description of Mitchell won't be true of Flynn as well down the road?

No the Redskins would go after a guy who was at the end of his career and pay him all the money. Matt Flynn is a west coast QB. His skill set definitely fit the Redskins and what they want to do. What he did today was amazing. 480 yards and six touch downs. Believe me you have to have talent to throw for that many yards. This guy is young and can do all the things the Shannahans want. I think this could be the guy. I was not sold until I saw what he did today. He performed as well or better than Rogers, he is a guy we can win with now. He Also allows us to fill other needs, with our draft picks. My guess is the Browns will be feeling the same way, since Holmgren already found a QB in a back up for Green Bay.

If Matt Flynn didn't play today would you be saying this?

This thread would look pretty silly if it was posted without his performance after today's game. Looking a lot into one matchup against one team.

It's wild speculation to assume that he is as good as his performance today. His talent level is probably somewhere in the middle of his best & worst day.

Can't put too much stock into Flynn at this point. Good for GB that they have a capable backup, but I doubt his skills translate immediately to other teams.
