Mark Sanchez at 13th?

What's most interesting in all of this it that seems that the one guy (the one key guy that is) that doesn't seem to enamored with Sanchez either by trading up or taking him at 13 is Cerrato.

Well, like the previous Dan Snyder tantrum (trading for Cutler), I hope that this ends up not happening. I hope that VC is just putting up with DS' Sanchez tantrum, and sets it up where he comes to DS and tells him that it wasn't possible to get Sanchez (and draft Oher instead!).

Well, more and more I'm thinking that this Sanchez deal is a smoke screen to get a lower pick team to trade with us. If getting Sanchez had any remote possibility, Mike Florio would be blasting it all over PFT.com like he did with the Cutler situation.

I think Sanchez is possible, I just don't think we're likely to be able to trade up to get him (if we had our 2nd round pick still, that might have been the case).

I think ultimately is less about Sanchez and more about Campbell. If he's not the guy in 2010 and beyond, and Colt isn't the guy until 2011 at the earliest then what do we do?

When he gets released from Seattle this offseason, Hasselbeck will be our stop-gap until Colt is ready to take the reigns (pun intended). :smashfrea

I was resisting the urge to say that

Why is it that Collins is never mentioned? I mean it's not like they're paying the man peanuts.

Because he's a 38 year old career backup who was effective (and not exactly prolific-but effective) in a system that he was brought in to run and we don't run anymore. The only reason he's still on the team is because he had that playoff run. Any other offseason he'd be out looking for work and not finding much success in securing it.

Soups not playing in a system he was brought in either. Kurt Warner has put the age thing to rest. He sure does make a lot of money for someone that should be looking for a job.

Todd Collins is in no way Kurt Warner period.

I'd be shocked if Hasslebak got released...but I wouldn't be mad if this scenario happened!

As long as we got trade value for JC...2nd round pick anyone?

Given that Snyder can't go 15 minutes without grabbing the attention of the entire NFL universe, I have to say that what our plans should conditionally be in 2010 probably isn't high up on the Redskins' priority list.

Cerrato just isn't a big trade up guy anyhow. Snyder seems to be less worried about winning this time of year than he is about finding the youngest, most marketable athlete at any position. Unfortunately for Cerrato, his NFL legacy is going to be defined by the actions we do/do not take within the next week or so, so if he's ever going to stand up for what he believes is the best way to build the Redskins, now would be a pretty good time.

Snyder is all about winning when it comes to August, but the NFL is a 12-month sport now more than ever, and our intentions now seem to be counterproductive to our desires for the upcoming season.

What if the Seahawks offered the 4th and their 2nd for the #13 and Campbell? Would you do it?

I think that they'd want a bit more from us.

Only if he comes with a 45% share of Microsoft.
