You might be right.

He also said Manning is off the table cause we don't have an OL to protect the older and now easily injured Manning so he probably won't want to sign with the Skins.

Personally let us take whoever is available at #2 and hopefully we still have our 2nd round pick and just pick up another Weeden or Foles. Get our WRs from FA for the passing attack.
Unless we are able to pick up Flynn to challenge whoever we draft.

Both Jacksons WRs are going to be tagged and Bowe may sign elsewhere so who else is there to get?

I'd be ecstatic with Luck orRG3

Buzz among NFL execs is Redskins trading up

Skinsfan, I honestly don't know. I kinda hoped we could nab one of the Saints WR's and possibly one of the 8-10 other decent WR's that will be available in FA.

People are probably gunna say I'm over killing it QB wise but if we pick RGIII and he's not ready or for some reason can't play or Luck and it's the same situation we will be screwed. I'd rather have too many decent QB's and be able to trade one away next year if need be then to not have anything like this year went. My perfect world...

Flynn/RGIII
or
RGIII/Weeden or Foles
or
Luck/Weeden or Foles

Basically if we can pick up a FA QB then I can see us taking RGIII and not worrying about whatever else happens in the draft. Win/Win. If we can't get a decent FA QB then I'd prefere we get two from the draft, hopefully one of the top two and it would be nice to pick up a 2nd rounder to challenge each other. Obviously if we are subject to having to pick up 2 QB's in the draft then I imagine we will have to pick up decent WR in FA to work in with what we already have.

Senior Bowl Day 2: South practice report

* Overall, Weeden is in the lead among all six quarterbacks. Just looks the part better and throws a better football.

Weedon is definitely the one of the best quarterbacks in the draft. Because of his age, he may be the most mature of all the quarterbacks entering the 2012 NFL draft. As the old saying goes, age ain't nothing but a number. What if Weedon does what Big Ben did in his rookie season?

The problem with Weeden is that age is a factor. He's in his prime now so chances are he won't get much better while other QBs have that luxury.
