I would rather get draft picks and have something to help us in 2010 and beyond than hold on to campbell another year.
That said, youre right - its not going to happen. As long as Danny and Vinny are making the decisions, this team will never achieve any real success, as they are both unwilling to look beyond "next season."

Nice post. We are going to be in full blown rebuilding mode soon enough. JC is statistically just above Gus in passing yardage(will surpass Gus around midseason or a bit sooner in '09) and simply isn't going to get the job done for us. He showed more promise under Gibbs' offensive scheme than in this one, thus he looks like he isn't improving or actually regressing. The WCO sucks and has been run by so many franchises since the 80's that everyone knows how to defend against it unless the team in question has the right personnel. We don't. Our #1 WR Moss was brought here for Gibbs, with Gibbs' offense in mind, meaning tough running and longer pass routes that required speed. Our other WRs were brought here to compliment Moss and spread the field. JC was brought in for Gibb's offense also. Cannon arm that can throw the long ball is wasted in the WCO. Our age is a huge problem now also with both lines and with Springs. Smoot II, like Gibbs II, isn't like Smoot I. He is good for depth, but his starting days are past.
