I think it may be too early for that. So many undecideds

Makes sense. I guess we learn about Barkley today at least. The more coming out the better for us.

I'd like to see them draft Tannehill, if only because we'd get to see his fiance in Redskin outfits...

I really don't see the Skins giving up what it may cost to guarantee a shot at the top 3 (assuming all declare). The projected top pick for Luck is being speculated at a potential 4 first round picks or 3 firsts and 2nd's......crazy.
AND I personally don't think the SKins have any intention of heavily mortgaging future drafts (and I fully support that concept) in order to score a QB. He may not be the perfect guy....or maybe he will, BUT if he is not work out we WILL have future options to take another swing at the plate if our draftee does not work out.
.....other holes to fill as well.

How accurate is that? The cost for moving up the board depends where you're moving up from. Sure, some team will get raped because of their desperation to land Luck but that scenario is the absolute worst case.

After exhaustive research into the Moderators Outrageous rumors thread, it has an accuracy factor of 99.083......celsius......more or less.
Point is don't look for the SKins to break the bank for future generations for....anybody.

I saw Tannehill play here this season and he had a decent game 2 Tds 3 Ints.. I didn't come away thinking he's a big time QB In fact I think Landry Jones is a better overall talent.

I'm so conflicted about that scenario. As much as I want Luck, I'm not sure it'd be worth the price... Plus, I feel like we'd be cursed or something. Luck would be a bust and every player drafted with our picks would not doubt become pro bowl HOFers...

I'm 100% convinced Luck is the real deal, he's got the talent and hunger to succeed. He's in it for the love of the game, is a physical specimen, smart, good character, I can't find anything wrong with him.

If you were mike shanahan, would you pull the trigger?

[artmonkforhallofamein07]

No I do not like that move. 3 1sts, this team needs as many firsts as we can get to get the level of talent in DC it will take to win a championship.

[skinsfaninok]

I'd do what i could to get Luck

What really irritates me about this thread is the presumption that Mike will know what to do w/ a rookie QB. Don't talk to me about Cutler because he's not proven jack shit. Elway fell into Mike's lap, along with one of the best defenses in history and elite RB, TE and WR.

And don't overplay Mike's involvement w/ Montana, Young or anyone else. I haven't heard any of those guys give credence to Mike Shanahan as they do other coaches.

The notion Mike can get "his special guy" after the top QB talent is gone and build a championship level team is about as likely as a Ron Paul presidency. It smacks of more egomania, much like the past string of misjudgements that led us to a Rex and Beck dynamic duo more than two years into the new regime.

Well.........you've named about 13 QB's (and left out some) that Mike worked with that had success...some totally excelled. AND you have completely tried to discredit hiim at each event. WHAT exactly DO you give him credit for....Like just the guys that DID NOT work out?
