McNabb a REDSKIN!

I was at the movies and my phone started blowing up with texts about the trade so I am just getting details about it.. Personally, I love the trade. McNabb gives us legitimacy at the QB position for the first time in forever. Is he perfect, not even close. Is he the best we've had in more than a decade, absolutely. This is a move to win in the next 2 years with Shanahan. His history is with veteran QB, Elway was a veteran, he went to an AFC Championship game with Jake freaking Plummer.

This actually gives us MORE flexibility in the draft. If Okung is gone at #4 (which he probably will be) they can trade down without having to worry about going down too far and risk not being able to get a T or QB-now we just can focus on T and it also gives us the ability to trade Campbell for a 3, 4, or 5 rather than needing to hold out for a 2nd round pick we'd never get.

That my friend is optimism and I like it. I hope you're right.
