Thanks for offering to show me the way out of here, johno! I'm only jumping ship if T.O. signs though. Okay?

For what it's worth Shanny said on ESPN2 we arent looking in that direction even if he understands why Donovan or TO might want to be reunited.

We could have had TO at the recent minicamp, when we hosted 3 other WR's. We didn't. I think Shanny is telling the truth on this one.

Looks like McNabb closed the door. Smart idea.

Shanahan: Redskins Not Interested In Terrell Owens - The Trenches - The Trenches - Sporting News
Washington coach Mike Shanahan told ESPN's Ed Werder that the team is not actively pursuing Owens. A team source tells the website that the team would "prefer to avoid bringing Owens into their locker room if another solution can be found.".

Donovan McNabb Wants Terrell Owens In D.C. - The Trenches - The Trenches - Sporting News
SPN reports the Redskins could trade the fourth pick, defensive lineman Albert Haynesworth and former starting quarterback Jason Campbell, which could open the door for them to sign Owens

Re: Did Mcnabb open the door for TO?

It's very disconcerting that they are unhappy with the receivers, considering the high draft picks used. Have to assume that it is Kelly who is not making the grade. I don't think they can use one of their very few draft picks on a WR this year. So they would have to sign some UDFAs, and another name FA, like Owens.
If McNabb and the Shans are ok with T.O., then I am to.

Re: Did Mcnabb open the door for TO?

I am not surprised. What have the guys done? We currently have an old guy, two young guys (one who shows promise and one who hasn' showed much at all) a seventh round guy who looked great against the scrubs in preseason and barely made a catch in the season. So it really is not surprising to see the new sheriff wants a playmaker.

Re: Did Mcnabb open the door for TO?

This is why I wanted Brandon Marshal, because we don't have a true number one wide reciever.

Re: Did Mcnabb open the door for TO?

Yes, having Marshall here would have been great, but the team had nothing to bargain with. They have no 2nd or 3rd this year, and no 3rd next year. They had no realistic way to get Brandon. What surprised me was that they didn't make a play for Kevin Walter. He knows Kyle's system, and would have been an excellent possession receiver.

Maybe they thought Kelly would step-up, but once mini-camp started, it became obvious that he doesn't have it.

I am assuming that Kelly is the weakest link, but maybe Santana has lost an extra step. Either way, I don't expect Moss on the team next year.

Next year we'll be in position to draft one of the top receivers if that's our focus. Would be great if we could get a Percy Harvin, Jeremy Maclin, or similar.

Re: Did Mcnabb open the door for TO?

Riley is projected to go in the 4th round, maybe late 3rd.
I would not be surprised if Shanahan drafted Mike Williams, troubled receiver from Syracuse, in the 7th round. Shan is known to take gambles on skill players.
It's hard for me to envision them going Wr in this draft, except the 7th round, and only if a talented guy is there.
I don't see how they get out of this draft without getting 2 O-linemen, a ILB, and possibly a Safety.
They really don't have a Return guy yet, that needs to be addressed as well.
