IMO outside of Luck, I dont see a first round talent

I dont see John Beck as a "Project" he's like 28 years old..

sure moore doesnt have a cannon arm but thats if you compare him to peyton manning or something... his arm is above average in my eyes. and yeah hes short and slow but so is drew brees. in fact, moore reminds me of brees alot with the accuracy and all.

i'd make moore a priority to pick up, maybe using a 5th or even a 4th on him.

I hope that's not true. Not that I want him but I would sure like an insurance policy to tempt teams picking ahead of us. Then again he is a spread QB with only 1 year of starting experience.

I'm watching College Football Live right now. They just sold me on wanting to draft Kellen Moore. He got the Boise State play book off the internet and had it memorized BEFORE he went to school there. They said he was teaching OLinemen where to go when he first got there. He is a film rat and his processing and ability to read defenses is faster than just about anyone. Sounds like a Peyton Manning-esque kind of player to me. I am going to be pulling for Shanny to draft him now. I am officially starting the Kellen Moore Mob. Whose with me?

It's classic he said/she said BS that goes on anytime a relationship is on the rocks.

If there's a cap next year, I don't think it makes much sense to keep him as a backup at that figure.

Assuming we could afford it, i'd say keep him as a backup, atleast through the preseason. At some point, a QB would get hurt and come begging for McNabb.

Agree he is accurate and will be cheap.

He is also fragile - - and if the OL is not dramatically improved I don't think Bulger can last thru many actual games.

I would bring him here if I also had confidence that the 2011 OL would be WAAAY better than the 2010 and/or 2009 OLs...

Our QB form the 2011 season will be, who knows. Look right now we know it takes a QB a couple of years to get comfortable most offensive schemes. I still believe McNabb can do better in this offense in his 2nd year. I also believe we need a QB for the future and Rex maybe the opening starter until our drafted QB is ready to play. McNabb will not be back unless he takes a pay cut and getss on board with both Shannys.

Pay cut? Not likely at all given that he has a signed contract that gets him big bucks if he is on the final roster of 53 players. If he takes a pay cut, it will be with some other team after he is released from the Skins.


Gets on board with both Shannys? This will happen about the same time Albert Haynesworth runs and finishes a marathon.

I voted for McNabb. Im hoping Rex's carrer can be revived here, but Im not betting on it. Even if McNabb is lazy or isn’t smart enough to make a concerted effort to learn a new system at this stage in his career, a second year and a additional off season should make him better. If we cant trade him, id like to keep him around as our number 2, even if it does create a respect issue. Not sure how possible that would be given his contract though.

Also Ryan Perrilloux is still a guy im hoping the Redskins give a shot, I think if he really has his priorities in order he could be a starter in this league.

[skinsnut]

The redskins are bizarre...McNabb invite as a backup after trading for him after 13 games?
Nuts....most say it takes 2 years to grasp a system...I think they are just fed up due to fundamentals more than anything.

I just don't see how the skins can afford to gamble a first rounder on a qb with so few quality picks remaining.
I'd say it is far more likely that we will try to get the top free agent...anyone know who that is?...and dont say Grossman!

@skinsnut. Yes Kyle orton
