Better Decision: Draft/Deal for Bradford or Trade for McNabb/Draft T. Williams?

Keep this in mind and I know it's way to early -- but Bradford is being projected as the next great qb.

What if McNabb continues to play sub par? The way you are painting the picture it seems like you are looking for someone to say YES it was a huge mistake to get Mcnabb.
You should probably re-name this thread warrorzpath thinks it was a mistake to get McNabb and is looking for some people to agree with him.

I can play devil's advocate as well....what if Bradford goes into a huge sophomore slump next year and never gets out of it...and McNabb and the Redskins win a supebowl in 2012? What would you say about the trade then? Was it a good one?
It is still too early to decide.

Question to the people upset with McNabb: Did you honestly think Shanahan and McNabb would take a 4-12 team and make it a playoff team in one year? If you did you only have yourself to blame for being upset.
Even though we got the best LT in the 2010 draft in Trent Williams we are still battling with very poor play from our offensive line. Our center, LG and RT are not playing well. I can not imagine how bad we would be with Bradford and no Trent Williams. We would less than 4-4 right now.
Don't get fixated on the whole young QB fantasy world. I don't care how old or young our QB is or where he was drafted.
We won our first and second superbowls with 34 year old Joe Thiesmann and 33 year old Doug Williams. Both cast offs from other teams. Rypien was no lottery pick either.
I do not need a pretty boy high draft pick QB.
The winning-est team in the NFL currently has 3 Sb titles since 2001 and their Qb is a sixth round pick.
