Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

[quote=BigHairedAristocrat;547177]If Campbell had been drafted by almost any other team, he'd be someones franchise QB and have signed a lucrative multi-year extension by now. He'd be someones franchise QB, and he'd be set for life. Instead, at best (due to circumstances largely out of his control) he's got a 50/50 chance right now of being a career clipboard holder. Through constant change and stupid front office and head coaching moves, the Redskins have taken a player with enormous potential and completely screwed him up. If Campbell somehow manages to succeed this year, i hope he refuses to sign an extension with the skins unless he gets a 6+year contract and the skins extend Zorn as well.[/quote]Are you really the same guy who suggested that we trade him for whatever we could get?

The mismanagement angle is interesting, but premature. Sure, we seem to be hell-bent on screwing up our QB situation, but we haven't done anything wrong with Campbell yet. We just plan on screwing up is all.

Sanchez gettin his Veal on....

Mark Sanchez Loves Him Some Veal Chops

There have been times on this beat when I've felt as if I was writing for Page Six of the New York Post, but never more than now. As we reported last week, USC quarterback Mark Sanchez, a player Redskins owner Daniel Snyder covets in the upcoming draft, had an official visit with the Redskins on Friday and Saturday.

And, courtesy of the public relations staff of a local hotspot, we now are aware of more details about the activities of Sanchez and Redskins officials Friday night than we probably really needed to know, This was Sanchez's last official visit with any team - though he is slated to work out for the Broncos on Tuesday - and the Redskins could trade up to select him.

I'll let the PR staff for Il Mulino New York take over from here. This comes from their press release about Sanchez's dinner there:

"Friday night, guests at DC's hot spot IL MULINO NEW YORK on Vermont Ave. were in awe to see USC Quarterback Mark Sanchez, Redskins Owner Dan Snyder, Executive VP Vinny Cerrato, Head Coach Jim Zorn, and the Skins QB Coach. They began their evening by first enjoying some drinks outside on the patio, then all ventured inside to dine. With the NFL DRAFT upon us, they held their secret meeting in the Private Room in the back of the restaurant. The 6'3", 225 lb. Trojan from Mission Viejo, CA dined on a PASTA TRIO and a 16oz VEAL CHOP. He definitely cleaned his plate!!"

Two exclamation points and liberal use of all caps? What enthusiasm!!

Anyway, if you are among what appears to be a minority of fans who hope the Skins trade up to get Sanchez, I suppose you're hoping that veal was cooked to perfection. And for those wondering, Sanchez is 22, so it's perfectly cool if he was drinking something other than a Shirley Temple.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

other teams ahead of us is hot on sanchez, we have no chance unless we trade up (hope note)

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

I wonder if all the other potential 1st rounders who visit the team are treated that way by the FO. Somehow I doubt it.

I'd like to yell at Dan Snyder.

I don't know how other teams cater (kiss players asses) to players..? I have a feeling they might not get that special DC/Danny Boy kinda love though...?

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

1. If Snyder really wants Sanchez, he trades up with the Chiefs. I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't one of Scott Pioli's people who were the inside sources telling McShay that the Seahawks wanted Sanchez (thereby making the Chiefs #3 pick the route to Sanchez, not the Jags #8 pick). Pioli:

A. was the co-architect of the Patriots, who always traded down and accumulated picks,

B. knows that when the Danny sees something shiny, he'll do everything in his power to get it. And that means this year's number 1, next year's number 1, and possibly next year's #3.

2. This is pure speculation, but I wonder if Snyder sees enormous marketing potential in having the first Hispanic superstar in the NFL. I'm not sure what the demographics are on hispanic football following, but not only is there a large Hispanic population here in the Washington area, the possibility of selling Sanchez Redskins jerseys in southern California where there is no team, where Sanchez went to college, and where there are of course millions of first and second generation Hispanics new to american football in an area without a football team... I mean, again, I'm just spit-balling here, but yeah, you've gotta think that the first Hispanic Franchise QB is going to be a goldmine. And you've gotta think Snyder knows this. I mean, he's taking the guy out to eat... this thing's getting done... utterly ridiculous.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

Peter King's MMQB leads with the notion that Snyder is determined to get Sanchez. [url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/peter_king/04/20/draft/index.html?eref=writers]Mark Sanchez, Daniel Snyder, Scott Pioli pivotal in NFL Draft - Peter King - SI.com[/url]

I still assert that if Cutler never became available and Snyder's appetite for a shiny new QB wasn't whetted then we'd not be having this discussion. The one positive in the article is that a source near Snyder says he won't allow next year's #1 pick included in any trade but come Saturday, we'll see what happens.

Great, great point! I think there is something to that because we all know that Snyder is about marketing and sales above virtually anything else. It's going to be an interesting, if not torturous week.

Man, what hype hahaha

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

Drafting a QB is the worst. It will be two years from now before we ever know if this was a bust. It seems like in the past ten years (not counting Flacco and Ryan) 1st round QB's have busted. It is all "hype" go back to Alex Smith, Joey Harrington, J. Russell, etc...everyone of those guys where just going to be awesome according to the pre-draft hype and now look at them, JC has them all beat.

Good points, but I could see the Chiefs more likely trading with the Jaguars. Because if they fall past the Broncos they may not get the guy they supposedly really want-Tyson Jackson. Plus, I think there's a really good chance that Sanchez doesn't fall past the Rams at #2

More good points, although technically there already exists Tony Romo if you're looking at Hispanic superstars in the NFL (deserved or not). But yeah, I mean how many times have I been saying this past week that every year (and more so than this year) marketability and economic considerations (ticket sales, jersey sales, etc) play a large part in every team's draft board (perhaps ours more than some others, such as Buffalo). I wouldnt' make such a big deal out of the dinner thing though, that's kind of standard fare at this point in the "recruiting" game.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

I am against trading up...but if they trade up for a player other then a QB I will be even more upset. They can fill a position of need by staying right at #13 which i hope they do. The ONLY reason to part with future draft picks in a trade-up is if they have identified Sanchez as a franchise QB.

King also makes the point though that he spoke to "someone close to Snyder" this weekend (that probably means Snyder himself) and that someone said Snyder was not giving up the first rounder next year to get such a deal done. So we'll see

It's a long shot, but what if somehow we're able to get Sanchez and use other picks (and maybe players) to move up a bit and still fill some other needs with quality draftees? How would you feel then?

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

I just don't like the idea of drafting Sanchez, period. It's going to create a season long distraction. From the moment camp opens we'll be hearing about when is Sanchez going to get his chance... the first bad game JC has the Sanchez talk will heat up. Hell even if JC is playing well people will want to talk about what the long term plans are for Sanchez. Until he gets on the field, it will be a major talking point.

Nobody loves a QB controversy quite like DC and we'll have yet another epic one on our hands. I just don't like it.

I think we're going to fool everyone and actually trade down for Josh Freeman...just kidding.

Yeah, I don't like the idea of drafting Sanchez unless it's coupled with a trade of Campbell and we just say "Ok Mark, you're the man now dog" And then we just have a Derek Anderson/Brady Quinn thing with Sanchez and Brennan.

With our next picks coming in the 3rd and the 5th you won't be moving up much on that alone; what position do we find ourselves deep enough at to be able to use a backup/pick on and ship away a player for a good pick? I mean we've got some potential in some young guys but not very many studs, on top of that we overvalue some of our guys (wouldn't get much for ARE, not just picks, but probably interest either, especially at his salary). Kind of a shitty way to look at it but I'm just not sure who we could use as any decent trade bait without shipping off 2-3 players for a single decent pick. Maybe we'd have something a little more "certain" in a later round, but I don't know that the risk would be worth it.

Yeah I guess if it's going to happen, might as well go all the way and just get rid of JC now and plug in Sanchez right away. That would at least take care of any QB controversy and the team could move forward right away.

Seems like it would be the logical thing to do; of course we wouldn't get much for Campbell nor give him the chance to raise his stock in this coming year. But if we keep Campbell and did draft Sanchez, Campbell does very well, you're looking at getting rid of one of them in the not so distant future. Way too much money tied up into a single position otherwise.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

Peter King is saying that point wise (I know that doesn't mean a whole lot) we'd have to give our 1st, 3rd & 5th, plus next years 1st to trade up to number 3?

That's frickin terrible. If we do that, it's gonna be awfully hard to watch the draft for me. If we were to trade up, we have to find a way to do it without using all of our picks.

Are we doing this knowing we could get a 2nd (unlikely) or 3rd for Campbell to another team?

So we'd nbasically have a 2nd rounder, and what's our other pic, 7th round? We'd have a 1,2 & 7. No way we are gonna fill all of our needs with that.

I keep telling myself that this is a smoke screen, but the more I hear what's being discussed with Snyder being smitten, and us trading up, it make me wanna hurl.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

Reading between the lines, i think its probable that Snyder wont package our 2010 first rounder in any trade because he knows Cowher, Shanahan, Holmgreen, or Gruden will want that pick... ugh.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

[quote=BigHairedAristocrat;547427]Good news for those of you worried we'll package this years 1st, next years 1st, and something else for Sanchez...

Yay! A 1st, 3rd, and future 2nd is way better! Yay! This isn't representative of a complete lack of perspective on the deficiencies of this franchise at all. The Skins aren't old or lacking depth, they are just missing a rookie QB with 16 career college starts and who lacks arm strength. Yay!

Keep in mind we've reportedly been "smitten" with draft picks out of our range in the past.

[url=http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/04/24/AR2007042402340.html]Snyder: Redskins Are on Right Track - washingtonpost.com[/url]

[quote]Georgia Tech wide receiver Calvin Johnson is considered by many teams to be the best player available in the draft, and the Redskins are smitten with him as well, sources said, mulling over options to trade up to get him (the team has shopped cornerback Shawn Springs to Detroit, which has the second overall pick, again in recent weeks). Completing such a trade would be difficult -- perhaps impossible -- without including next year's first-round pick. That, according to Snyder, means that it is imperative that the team identify the best possible candidate for the sixth pick. Snyder has watched Johnson and others work out, and meets with most top prospects.[/quote]

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

I don't think it's a smokescreen anymore, the question is how high of a price is Snyder willing to pay?

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

Cowherd was ripping the Skins on the radio this morning about how Campbell has been lied to over and over and how his self steem must be after all the lying the FO has done.

I hope you're wrong, but if not, hopefully there's another team (ala the Bears) that will save us from DS's stupidity and put together a better deal to grab Sanchez.

I'm with SC Skins....WTF is DS so enamored with a one year wonder (at USC no less) with sub-par arm strength ?????

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

Yeah, I thought originally it was a smokecreen when there was a possibility Sanchez would be there at 13, so we could trade down. But no this trade up talk has me jumpy. I originally wanted to trade down to late 1st round and get a 2nd rounder, but now I'll be happy to stay at 13. I just don;t know enough about this Sanchez kid. He looks good on film, but the inexperience will be his undoing.

The second DeMarcus Ware blasts through our rickety O-Line and blasts him, he's gonna wish he stayed at USC.

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

How come we never hear about Dan Rooney or Bob Kraft "smitten" with draft picks? Maybe because they know how to run a professional outfit?

I expect the Skins to somehow end up with Sanchez. We'll dump picks this year and next to get him. And we'll probably part with JC for like a 4th round pick...

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

Rumor has it that if Sanchez is available when the Seahawks are up, that they will draft him.

The fool Snyder doesn't realize, or has somehow forgotten in a matter of months, that no great coach respects him or his franchise (Gibbs is another matter).

Re: Mark Sanchez at 13th?
 

About Sanchez being hispanic, i was also wondering if he would be the first hispanic starting NFL QB - if so, the Redskins would probably double their fanbase overnight. We'd probably also steal alot of Cowboys fans, so it would be nice to stick it to Jerry. That said, i really hope ethnicity isnt a factor in Snyders wanting Sanchez. I think Sanchez merits consideration based on the quality of player that he is alone.

That said, I disagree that its going to cost two firsts and more to move up from 3rd to 13. The Chiefs dont even want to take a player that high and are desperate to move down. High 1st round picks arent as "valuable" as they used to be, and it wouldnt surprise me if the Chiefs did the deal for our 1st, 3rd, and a 2nd-4th round pick next year. Granted, Pioli probably knows he could get Danny to overpay for the pick, but i would hope Snyder would be shrewd enough to realize HE has the upper hand in this situation - the Chiefs are desperate to move down and theres no need to sell the farm.

Along those lines, if Snyder really REALLY wants Sanchez, why not just wait and see what happens. Let the first 4 picks go by and see if sanchez is still there. If he makes it past the Seahawks, he'll likely fall to the Jags and we could trade with them. Its also possible he falls to us - although thats not likely. Looking at a number of mocks, i think we're almost certain that one of Sanchez, Orkapo, or Smith will fall to 13. At this point, i think the smartest move would be to just let the top 12 picks play out, then see if one of those 3 is still on the board. If so, we will have plenty of offers from other teams wanting to trade up.

Even if we really want Sanchez, and another team takes him before us, that doesnt mean we couldnt do something after the fact. We could still trade our 13 plus additional picks/players to the team that drafted Sanchez. I certainly don't think theres a need to trade all the way up to 3 prior to the draft.

My guess is he likes his confidence and the fact he's a more vocal leader on the field than JC.

This is exactly what I've been wondering all along. Why wouldn't the Rams take him at #2? Apart from the fact that Spagnuolo is a defensive guy who might use his first pick on defense, I can't figure out why St. Louis wouldn't begin grooming Bulger's replacement.

At least that's what I hope.
