Are you saying ugh to another change in general or to those specific options? I think the only legitimate option there would be Gruden. Cowher is very close to Marty-strike one. Shanahan is very close to Jerry Jones-strike two. If we're talking to Holmgren that means we just fired one of his proteges-strike three.

I'd think any move at the QB position would mean that Zorn gets at least 3 more years to develop and try to win with him. You don't draft a rookie QB and then up and fire a QB 'guru' after one season. That's just moronic, even for Snyder standards.

The more I think of it, maybe the Sanchez move is Snyder admitting we're not one player away from a championship and he wants to build from the QB position outward. In a best case scenario, if he drafts Sanchez, combined with the receivers we drafted last year, in a couple of years we could have a dynamic offense with a group of young players (Sanchez, Thomas, Kelly, Cooley, Davis) that can play together for 5-8 years at a high level a la the Colts (Manning, Harrison, Wayne, Clark). I'm not endorsing the move, just trying to think like Snyder. The other thought could be that with Haynesworth and Hall he feels we have enough of a defense to win with a rookie QB not making mistakes just like the Ravens did last year. I think he's fooling himself if he feels our D is on par with theirs but he may think that's the case.

I really hope we don't have the ammo to go get him. If we trade up for anyone I hope it's Orapko.
