Matt Barkley Stays (QB Draft Prospect Thread-Episode IV)

[Mechanix544]

from what i am gathering, it seems as if alot of teams plans hinge on rg3's plans now. since barkley did not declare and appears to be staying. there are 2 things i could see happening, as it pertains to the skins.

#1 - we get sam bradford, rams draft rg3 and reload with a bunch of pix from the skins. i do not think we give away our first rounder this year for him, due to some slick negotiating from allen and shanny, but we will definitely give this years second rounder with maybe cooley or davis, plus a first and third next year or something around that for him. Hopefully this is the year that bruce allen really earns his paycheck and makes something like this happen. the rams desperately need playmakers on the ball, and the one area of strength for us is te. it would also give rg3 a reliable necessary option for him at the most important position for a young qb, a reliable te.

#2 - skins just go bpa with their first round pick, and go for our quarterback in the second round in foles or tannehill. this could also mean maneuvering with players/picks in order to move up/down to get whoever is higher on shanahans board, which alot of people around here think is tannehill. this route might also be the best way to stockpile picks or add some by moving down the boards, and still getting the guy we originally were targeting. this is where allen/shanny again will earn their paychecks, and our scouting department will show if they have done their homework.

either way, i think the fan base in washington will be appeased for the moment. the skins would actually have a valid quarterback, or a young stud ready to start on the road to greatness.

the only scenario i hope we do not see is mike shanahan sticking with what he has right now. that would cause the fans in dc to bear arms, and start to riot, if the quarterback question in the district goes unanswered heading into may of 2012.
