Watch Snyder trade draft picks for Ryan.

Re: Fassel, Ryan and Zorn, oh my!

I'll admit, I like the Zorn idea. A lot. He's spent the last 6-7 seasons helping develop Hasselbeck into one of the best QBs in the league. And I don't think anyone will argue that Campbell has more physical talent than Hasselbeck. Sucks that JC is gonna have to learn yet another new offense, but oh well.

My main concern offensively is time frame. How long will it take for this offense to catch? Steve Young always says it takes 2 years to really learn a west coast offense. We've just spent two years waiting for JC to catch on to Saunders.

Therein lies my biggest concern ditching Saunders. I've heard some say that it isn't until year 3 that a QB is comfortable with the complex reads of the WCO. I really feel for Campbell - he's going into his 4th season with his 3rd coordinator.

Hasn't Campbell already spent two years learning the west coast anyway? Senior year at Auburn, first year with the Redskins where Musgrave ran a modified wco?

Good point. I thought of his senior yr at Auburn, but I forgot about Musgrave...

Zorn may be the best hire of this group. I really like Rex Ryan, but if Baltimore wants a high draft pick as compensation, I like him a lot less.

He was also very successful at Auburn when they ran the WCO.
