That will help us draft at 3 at the highest, needless be that its a QB, OL, WR, etc. that we take.


And as for the whole "Should we loose out. No we shouldn't that's bad and dumb," argument, I'm split and see both sides of the argument. But the edge has to go to the 'lose out' fans.

This team isn't going anywhere, and winning now isn't going to make this team become even an 8-8 team next year. As they say "the nfl is a QB driven league." Theres only one position in the league which a team builds around and gameplans around; the QB. The better the QB, the better the team is. You draft the right QB, your team becomes better. You hit on the right QB, a lot of those positions with ? marks by them suddenly disappear, or become less important of a need.

A good amount of people believe the skins were 4-12 at best this year. I suggest you finish at that Redskins.

I still think we can grab a top 5 pick.. Our schedule is hard and I only see 1 maybe 2 more wins.. Carolina will win 2 more but JAX, MIN and CLE wont

Re: Redskins vs Seahawks Game Day Thread

I am pretty torn on the whole thing. I am happy that we won, but I see how we are hurting ourselves in terms of a draft position. There is something to be said about winning culture, etc. and losing on purpose really doesn't help either. There are many great franchises that continue to get great talent "despite" making it to the playoffs each year. Luck was always out of reach and if we want another QB I think we can always trade up.

I wouldn't have been horribly upset if we lost, however.

Re: Redskins vs Seahawks Game Day Thread

No.. Losing mentality is something Washington has had for to long.. I think that's why we always end up in close games, missed FG's, turnovers, blocked FG's, terrible kickoffs, etc etc etc.. Its burned into the soul of Washington that mediocre play for part of the game is okay..

We need to stop this crap right now.. Winning is all that matters in the NFL. If you are not winning it doesn't matter. What kind of evaluation as a team do you bring out if you can't win games? It doesn't matter how good you THINK someone is at a position and what you feel is solid on your team if they are not winning games.

Going 6-10 will easily boot us out of the top 5. We were 6-10 last year and we picked 10th.

Re: Redskins vs Seahawks Game Day Thread

Again, I still can't wrap my mind around people who want us to lose. If we lose. Fine. We lost. But throwing games for draft picks? I hope none of you guys ever played team sports/college/semi-pro.

If the Skins organization ever gets the point of where they're so desperate for draft picks and project players, they want their current players to be a bunch of quitters, please notify me so I can immediately leave the bandwagon.

Re: Redskins vs Seahawks Game Day Thread

I don't see too many wins for the rest of the year. MIN probably. And we might steal another NFC East win.

Yeah I wouldn't want to throw games but I do see everyone's point

This. Since when is it guaranteed that you are assured of a better player the higher you pick in the draft? Good teams use whatever picks they have, high or low, to pick impact players.

I agree, this isn't the NBA...

Re: Redskins vs Seahawks Game Day Thread

Honestly we gotta keep things into perspective.. Jay Cutler was drafted in the middle of the first round with Shanahan, history suggests we're ok. Just keep playing to our level and whatever happens happens and we'll roll with it. Honestly the odds are that one of Barkley and RG3 stays and if that's the case they'll be a team ahead of us to grab the other one win or lose.

Keep it positive.
