McNabb a REDSKIN!

[Mechanix544]

Ya, that draft pick next year kinda dampens the deal. a 4th or 5th would have been alot more even for a 34 yo QB.

Not to nitpick but he's 33 and doesn't turn 34 until November.

I'm pretty sure he can still out-play 90% of NFL QBs when healthy.
His shelf-life is 2 seasons and I'm good with that.

so much for a quiet offseason...

I guess I'll be turning in my fan card until he's not on the team anymore. Oh well.

Yeah, I look forward to the day where people say "Well Shanahan has never won a Super Bowl without a QB named Elway or McNabb."

[Larry Michael is Satan]

This is part of a long term plan for the Skins. Donny Mac will help install Shanny's offense, and be a team leader. Allen will draft a Golden Boy next year to groom for a year or two and then take over when things are hopefully rolling. I don't think we'll be immediate contenders, but McNabb is a good bridge to the future. Heck, Campbell would have been gone next year anyway, I bet he's THRILLED that he gets to leave sooner.

Is this insane or what. I'm talking to a friend who's a Philly fan and she's pissed.

McNabb apparently wanted to come to D.C. Interesting.

LaVar and Antonio wanted to play us twice a year two

after all that he's been through there of course he wants the chance to beat them

even Jansen's bum ass was butthurtedly happy about the Detroit win

why are they pissed? can u tell me what their opinion and rationale of this deal is? my experience with eagles fans is that they would be glad to see him gone and kolb take over, but i dont think they imagined him with the skins

Well they don't like the fact he's been traded within the divsion. And for every person that hated McNabb, there were probably two or three that loved him.

Also, I'm hearing that the timing of this move may have been a PR one to grab the headline from the Phillies, who by the way, open in D.C. tomorrow.

This seems like a move that Ceratto would make. I thought we were building for the future, not this typical win now shit.
