Right now I feel this front office Joe Gibbs included have no clue. I never imagined we would take a QB that early when we have so much more needs at other positions. Heath Miller was sitting there at 25 for us to grab. If you get him you give Ramsey A true threat at TE. With him and Cooley who plays H-back not T-End. The other teams safties and LB would have had there work cut out for them. What happens instead the Steelers who make the playoffs on a regular bases get Heath Miller.

Campell cost the team a 1st a 3rd and a 4th round pick makes me sick to my stomach....unbelievable
Campbell actually cost the team TWO first rounders (the #25 pick this year AND the first rounder in 2006), plus the 3rd and 4th rounders. Pretty steep price for a guy that's not a surefire stud, and won't help the team for another 2 to 3 years, at least.

I was hoping they'd take Heath Miller, Roddy White, or a defensive end or linebacker. Anything but a quarterback with that pick. No matter who they took, though, it would be hard for them to prove worthy of two first-rounders, a 3rd and a 4th. Bad, bad draft management in my opinion.

That's my biggest concern with this move. I'm all for having depth at the QB position and leveraging yourself and being prepared in case Ramsey doesn't pan out or he does but chooses not to stay anyway.

But I'm not crazy about how much we gave up for him. I'm sure Campbell can be a very good starting QB in this league. But if you give up 4 draft picks, including two first rounders, for someone that guy better be the next Brett Favre.

If the Skins really felt they needed a QB for the future, why not just hold onto that #3 pick and take someone like Kyle Orton?

Concur with ya Joe......too high high a price ........put me down for a
NAY!
Bad draft management, bad front office, bad scouts, with goes right along with your bad clock management from last year, bad mistakes (stupid penalties), which translates to what we are a team with a BAD record...... Would have preferred Roddy White, DE, LB.......save QB for the 4th or better NEXT YEAR.........
