I would love it, but at this point that would almost never happen. If we wanted to swing a trade with the Rams and take Bradford, we definitely have the resources to have done that otherwise. I see now why we have brought in all of those veteran RB's.

Also, I'm hearing that the timing of this move may have been a PR one to grab the headline from the Phillies, who by the way, open in D.C. tomorrow.

The few Philly fans I know like McNabb. I think there's this notion that all Philly fans hate him but that's definitely been way overblown in the media.

Totally overblown. The media likes to feed the perception that Philly fans hate their stars and drive them out of town. I don't think this was the case here at all.

ESPN is buzzing big time over this.

i think we will try to trade down now personally. the draft is deep for o-linemen and if we could move down 5-10 spots we could still get a top quality tackle. dont rule out a qb though to groom behind mcnabb.

Any insight into whether mcnabb is a good fit in shanny's offense?

Also, perhaps it is easier to transition between offenses with a vet at the helm, so that next year, mcnabb will be able to tutor whoever we draft at QB (ryan mallett anyone?). Hope we get something good in exchange for JC when we deal him

from what ive seen of mallett he is a statue, shanny likes a guy who can move a little. hes got a huge arm but accuracy seems to be an issue. dont know if hes a good fit here

MS runs his version of the west coast so it shouldn't be a huge transition at all.

This has backfire written all over it. Stupid move.

I'd rather think of it as a "wait and see." When we see the finalized details of the deal, and see what we do with JC, then I think we'll be in a better spot to evaluate it.

Well, weren't you one of the people that hated JC no matter what?

[CRedskinsRule]

I am seriously hoping a second shoe drops that makes this trade more palatable. I feel like McNabb in the SB :vomit:

[SOUL-SKINS]

I love how there is always haters no matter what the Skins do. I love this move. Now we draft Okung and hopefully get a 3rd or 4th rounder for Campbell. Thank you Easter Bunny

17 games in 5 Years? That's not a healthy QB. Gotta figure in the time he was attempting to play through injuries like his rib/abdominal issues.
Many of these years he was playing behind a FAR better line than what we can offer here.

Still not thinking he's worth a HIGH 2nd and a 3rd/4th. Sorry.

So he's missed 4 games the last 3 seasons... Sorry but I don't see where there's a problem with injuries.

So he's just submitted himself to be a safe passer now? Injuries/age has impacted his game in my opinion.

So you seriously thing he's worth the 4th pick in the 2nd round, and lets face it, possible a high 3rd? That's quality picks there, possible starting OL or other potential needs...
Heck what if he only stays for a year?!?
