Who Will Be The Redskins 2011 Opening Day Starting QB?

[GTripp0012]

Grossman has been pretty poor in two games. I don't think he's done anything to hurt or help his chances of being with the Redskins next season, as I think he's merely out there to execute the offense as Kyle wants it to be executed. It hasn't been pretty, and I don't think he's executing it better than McNabb was, but I do think he's proving the point that McNabb was one of many problems with the offense. Quarterback needs to be fixed, and Grossman isn't really even a temporary solution.

It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if Grossman started three or four games next year to ease in a rookie, but it would signify a roster that is still very weak on the offensive end. For all the problems the Redskins have been through, it's not a travesty that Rex is playing. I do get the feeling that some fans are seeing his performance as "something they could temporarily live with".

It's the worst level of QB play we will have seen since pre-Ramsey days, based on the last two games and Grossman's career to date. If it's about implementing "a system", then fine, but Grossman is rated 15th on my list of free agent quarterbacks next year...and only two of those players (Manning + Vick) will be unobtainable for the Redskins.

Curious, what are your ratings at the QB, G and WR positions if you don't mind sharing..

Have you been watching the games???You are smoking crack. Grossman hasn't looked bad... He threw for over 300 yards, and 4 touchdowns against the cowgirls. Not sure, but last time I checked that is pretty good quarterbacking.

Top 9 of each.

QBs

Manning
Vick
Leinart
Matt Moore
Seneca Wallace
Tarvaris Jackson
Tyler Thigpen
Mark Bulger
Alex Smith

OLs

Logan Mankins
Ryan Kalil
Robert Gallery
Tyson Clabo
Davin Joseph
Doug Free
Harvey Dahl
Olin Kreutz
Jared Gaither

WRs

Sidney Rice
Vincent Jackson
Steve Breaston
Giants Steve Smith
Malcom Floyd
Santana Moss
Braylon Edwards
Santonio Holmes
Mark Clayton

This is not a system specific list, and would be re-ordered for the Redskins purposes (which would obviously bump Grossman up a bit due to system familiarity).

These 6 are the best on the list that actually may hit the market..

Manning,Vick,VJAX aren't going anywhere. I also think we bring 89 back

^I forgot about Leinart...that might not be a bad option for us at QB. I like Davin Joseph and Mankins at Guard. I prefer Jackson in your WRs...but the top 4 are all pretty close talent wise

Watching the (insert random sponsor) bowl and am NOT impressed by Locker at all. Heath Shuler 2.0, if not worse.

Agree, not very accurate at all

God bless Lou Holtz but my god I can't understand the guy especially when he starts talking fast

Definitely dont want Jake Locker, he just went 7 and 19 in the bowl game. Luck, then Missouri QB Blaine Gabbert are the top 2 qb's in the draft and the only ones id want to draft at #10. Otherwise we need to build the rest of the roster up first and get a qb next year and bring back Sexy Rexy. The QB from Delaware would be a good pick in the 2nd round if he is available to groom under Grossman for a year.

He's throwing passes out of bounds because none of his receivers can get open... He's doing a nice job managing the game. He reminds me of a tougher, less accurate Steve Young. I think he's going to be a good one. We'll be lucky if we have the opportunity to draft him, and if we do I'll be ecstatic.

Mallett cannot roll out like a Shanahan QB, I'd take Newton before him anyway.

Not to hijack the thread but I like this guy as a NT.

Defensive back domination of his receivers is why his statlines against Nebraska have been so poor this year, but it's not an excuse for missing receiver windows by as much as he does. Locker struggles to command the football when he's not moving in the direction of his target.

I hear you, he's definitely not ready to start week one... But I think he will be a really good QB in the NFL. After Luck he's my next choice
