Major props to Jay Glazer for being on top of this. He's one of the best in the biz. I shouldn't have doubted him.

I don't know yet how I feel about this. I have a great deal of respect for McNabb, but I'm concerned that this could mean good-bye for Sexy Rexy! Seriously though, I think McNabb has two to three strong years left in him. And hopefully here he'll get the run support he didn't get in Philly. I gotta think they're still looking at a QB toward the later rounds though.

I'm not usually too surprised by moves the Redskins make since I generally get a heads up on things that are brewing. I would say, with very little hesitation, that I have never been as surprised about a Redskins move in the last 10 years as this one.

So, do we like this better than getting Cutler last year?
love how all of the mods on the other board were shitting all over the poster that mentioned the speculation/rumor and then when details came out they were saying that it was old news and not relevant now

I mean I didn't think it'd go down either but the guys act like they work in the building haha

I love this move, We finally have a QB that has QUICK FEET IN THE POCKET! Mcnabb's ability to buy time in the pocket is just what we need for our OLINE building.

Cant wait.

McNabb can best be described as a good athlete, but he's definitely got some of the heaviest feet in the league. He's been above the league in sack rate just twice in his career, and once in a 10+ game season.

He's basically no improvement on Campbell in terms of pocket presence. I hear Bruce Gradkowski is available though, should we decide to run the chuck and duck.

This can be condensed into the following conditional.
"If a QB is sacked frequently, then he has slow feet."

This does not reflect the tape of QBs like Elway or Young, as they both had their fair share of 30+ sack seasons. Thusly, this If...then statement does not hold.
