The problem with that is they draft 4th. So, they can toy with us and other teams all they like.

Washington is on Manning's short list, and he will go to the team that offers the most guaranteed money.

If that's true then those who want him in DC have nothing to worry about.

I’m sure Giantone will gloat and say I told you so, and you’re not going to get RG3 either, but f them all. The Skins will be back on top again, as long as with MS and BS are running the show. Skins fan’s, we will have our time in the sun again just wait!!!

Also, let’s hope PM goes to Miami, so Matt Flynn will go to Cleveland, and then RG3 will be selected in the 2012 NFL Draft by the Washington Redskins

Well what if we get Flynn? It's a possibility

It's kinda funny how everyone is saying Peyton doesn't want to go to a cold weather team. So, go to Miami where he will have to go to NY, NE and Buffalo.

I'd be in line as well. As a matter of fact I think it would be like this

[SmootSmack]

Flynn won't be a Redskin under the current regime

Smoot, so which is true: Has Peyton rejected us, or are we in his top 3 (or is it somewhere in between).

I don't know what his top 3 is, if he even has one. That said, I know there are reports out there that he's said no to us and that is not what I've heard at all. We're very much in it, but again (think I mentioned this before) we're not really intending to negotiate. We have a "take it or leave it" offer in mind.

Rumor is a decision will be made by Manning on Monday. We'll see.

"I will be taking my talents to South Beach"

"I will be taking my talents to Landover"

"I will be taking my talents to Glendale"

I have a feeling he's probably been thinking about his top three for awhile now - at least since the Colts' end of season.

As far as I'm concerned, if he's not coming here as long as he goes to Miami it still works in our favor. Reason being, him to Miami increases the chance of Flynn to Cleveland which reduces (theoretically) the price for the RGIII trade with the Rams.

That being said, Peter King responded to a question on Twitter earlier that there's more than a 90% chance the Rams trade the pick prior to free agency so it could be a crazy Monday if we offer to Peyton, get a no, then turn around and call the Rams to make the deal before free agents hit the street on Tuesday.

Any back room chatter on who the first few free agents we may be bringing to town?
