Redskins Insider - Looking at Donovan McNabb's contract status

The Redskins hold a $10 million contract option for 2011 that they can exercise until the first game of that season, or they could release McNabb and owe him nothing.

Alright good. I was worried that the due date was sometime in early April or late March.

What do you guys think the odds are that McNabb is actually traded? and what would the market price of those odds be?

Same question for haynesworth.

And I do think haynesworth is trade-able (contract wise) because we are obligated to pick up the signing bonus when we trade him, so the new team will likely re-negotiate a new contract or just test him out for a year and cut him the next if they are not satisfied.

I'd say AH will be released before McNabb would be.

Who knows if this "inside info" or just someone throwing stuff up on a wall to see what sticks - - but here is one suggestion as to where Donovan McNabb might play football next year.


Also, please note the level of compensation suggested to acquire his services from the Redskins...

^If we create a market for McNabb he may be worth more than a 5 rounder

At this point, I'd take anything for McNabb and Haynesworth. I'd take any picks for McNabb, b/c unfortunately Shanahan treated him like crap and he probably doesn't want to play here anymore (although just for the sake of getting some worth out of that 2nd rounder we wasted on him, I wish he could stay here another season). For Haynesworth, I'd take any draft pick, just to get him the hell out of here.

How?

[diehardskin2982]

There are 10 teams in the top 20 needing IMO QB's. I think 5 of those teams are great landing spot for him (SF, MIN, TEN, ARI, MIA). Of those 5 teams you don't think teams will compete for his services. We got a 4th rounder, all be it next year for Campbell.

[SolidSnake84]

I think McNabb isnt going to be highly sought after, only because at this stage in his career he is best served to be the fill-in starter until a rookie QB is broken in. Like for example McNabb starting 7 or 8 games until the rookie is ready, if the team is not in playoff contention...

[diehardskin2982]

I think in some cases like SF he would be a 1 year starter. until they can draft Luck next year.

[SmootSmack]

Pure speculation that McNabb will be QB of the Vikings next year, but rooted in some legit basis.

Odds of being able to trade him dwindle him with each day that passes without being able to trade players. If nothing can happen before the draft, likely nothing will. Nothing will, as in no trade. Possible, but not probable. He'll likely just be cut

I think you're probably more likely to see McNabb gone than AH. You know the saying...if you love someone, let them go

[Longtimefan]

It's hard to fathom the fact that in just one season, McNabb's value has plummeted to a degree where we're left to wonder if we can secure a meager 4th round draft pick in exchange for his services after giving up so much.

If McNabb goes to the Vikings then we will have a rookie QB. It's just like the Favre situation.

Favre plays in Green Bay for like infinity billion years.
Favre gets traded to a team thats a terrible fit and has a failed season
Favre's last team drafts rookie QB and lets Favre go
Favre goes to the Vikings
Favre has a career year
Favre has his worst year ever

McNabb plays in Philly for infinity billion years
Mcnabb gets traded to a team thats a terrible fit and has a turrible season
McNabb's last team drafts a rookie QB and lets him go
McNabb goes to the Vikings
McNabb has career year
McNabb follows career year with worse year of his career....yes even worse then his year with the Skins.
