Or perhaps Brett Favre will decide... just kidding


I'd really prefer it if campbell stayed in Washington - everyone seems to either want him out, or to just use him as a stopgap until shanny's "quarterback of the future." I know he's had his shots, but what if JC just has a monster year in 2010? Is it that implausible that he could do well in shanny's offense?

I digress...Regardless of whether he plays for one year or more, I think he's too valuable to the redskins to give up right now, especially with the dearth of veteran QBs around that you mentioned. He's the only semblance of a leader we have on this offense, and I think that's overlooked a lot.

No way we get a 1st and 3rd for Campbell. It just won't happen. Plus we should keep him anyway because Bradford will be a rookie.

This talk of contract tender has nothing to do with trade value. If this report is right, we are not trading JC for a 1 and a 3. We are simply offering a contract at that level. Then, if we want to trade him, we can trade him for whatever we want.
