Re: McCoy to Start Against Indy

Looking more closely... each guy in the Snyder era has been replaced with a "shiny new toy" that never worked long-term...

EDITED:

Gannon (solid, not shiny 4th Round Pick) replaced by Heath Shuler (1st Round,3rd overall pick) experiment...

Shuler/Frerotte (7th Round pick) replaced by Trent Green experiment, which worked pretty well... but we didn't want to pay him, so naturally...

Trent Green (solid, not shiny 8th Round pick) was replaced by Brad Johnson experiment, which worked pretty well... but this time...

SNYDER ERA BEGINS:

Johnson (solid, not shiny 9th Round pick) replaced by Jeff George experiment (ooooooh shiny former 1st Round, 1st overall pick!)...

George replaced by Patrick Ramsey experiment (1st Round pick)...

Ramsey replaced by Jason Campbell experiment (1st Round Pick)...

Campbell replaced by McNabb experiment (ooooh shiny former 1st Round, 2nd overall pick!)...

McNabb/Grossman (1st Round pick) replaced by RGIII experiment (Shiny 1st Round, 2nd overall pick!)...

and now??

Snyder is CLEARLY not a Gannon (4th Round), Green (8th Round), Johnson (9th Round), Colt McCoy (3rd Round) kind of owner... he wants the next big, shiny, face of the NFL QB... and um... definitely drafted in the 1st Round... duh. So we shall see how this truly plays out between he and Gruden...

This Jay Gruden just happened to see (and here's the best part...) his brother Jon take Brad Johnson to Super Bowl win versus Rich Gannon, who Gruden had coached up the year before... Ha!

...so yes... he may just be looking at McCoy as his Johnson/Gannon (smart vet) that his brother used for success and wins...

SIDE NOTE: Um... maybe we should stay away from 1st Round QBs? Especially if drafting (or drafted) 1st to 3rd overall?!?
