To stay on topic, it makes sense to have traded up to draft Bradford for all that was lost with aquiring McNabb and possibly losing him after just one year. Let's see how this pans out. It looks ugly right now.  (Change the jersey to number 5) |
You're talking to the wrong guy. I've recently been of the view of letting Grossman be the tackling dummy for the season would have been the better move. Shanahan's a better GM than Vinny, but almost everyone is. He's not that good though, certainly not Sam Pollock(Habs GM who grabbed Guy Lafleur) good. The Brown and McNabb trades were mistakes. They'll "expire" way too soon and we'll have to start all over again.
We missed out on Nate Allen or Lamarr Houston.
So, in short: No Campbell, No McNabb is my stance now. It seems like becoming a Habs fan has its perks.
