I'll make this prediction though (and I truly have to go and workout now...) I think no matter how next season turns out, if Mike Shanahan drafts Robert Griffin III, Shanahan keeps his job throughout the end of his contract - even if the 'skins go through another losing season. IF Shanahan grabs Flynn in free agency, flynn doesn't live up to the hype and the 'skins have another sub .500 season - that could very well spell the end of Mike Shanahan. I just don't think Shanahan can afford to swing and miss this time with his quarterback. And unfortunately for him, I don't think Mike can wait another year for Barkley or Jones. Seems like everybody feels RG III is can't lose situation, I think it's going to be a tough call.

This, of course, is assuming it's an either or situation. I'm not sure how realistic it would be for the Redskins to both grab Matt Flynn AND draft RG III. I say there's no way both happens.
