besides the fact that he's old, todd seems like a horrible fit for shannys offense. i gotta believe he's a gonner.

Why is Todd Collins a bad fit for Mike Shanahan's offense?

I could not agree with this more. Campbell has had his chance. And I understand that we have been lacking an O line for some time now but he constantly steps into sacks when the pocket is fine. He also misses plenty of chances to scramble for easy first downs.

CB is this you i knew you would finally join.

If he's here he will get a chance, but we are still beating that dead horse aren't we.

both campbell and collins are better. colt will never start for the skins barring some catastrophe in which both of those two are injured in the same game. it's as simple as that.

i doubt collins will be a redskins this coming season and campbell may or may not, so with that in mind it's possible that colt could not only be a redskin but he could be 1-the starter (prolly not but...) 2-the back up or 3- the 3rd stringer.

Collins is out. If we are talking about true competition at every position, may the best player win, there are PLENTY of players on the market, and hey, in the draft for that matter, who could do what Collins is capable of doing BETTER than Collins, with a much larger upside. Collins is gone. Why would Shanahan retain the leftover scraps of an aging backup quarterback from the Zorn and Gibbs 2 era. He'll bring in his own guys.

Hopefully.

Everybody knows how I feel about the Colt. He will be a part of the QB competition, and no one should work harder than him because this may be his last opportunity to make a positive impression. I could be dreaming about Colt, but it's awfully difficult for me to believe a QB that set twenty-one Collegiate records does not have something to offer. I don't care what kingd of offense he played in, his credentials are impressive.

This pretty much sums up how I feel. Great Post!!!

I agree. I think it's kind of silly to just write him off. Give him a shot with the first team in preseason. JC's not going to take all the snaps anyway. He made some mistakes last preseason but I don't think that's any reason to just dump him. Anyone who thinks Bradford or Clausen isn't going to make some mistakes is fooling themselves. I'd like to see what he can do and fully trust Shanny's decision on him.

Dude he played in a douche conference. Who would you rather have as a starting QB, a guy who faced big time competition just about every week or some guy racking up stats against teams that are barely Div IA? How come he would have gone undrafted if we didn't pick him up? You know why? After all the hype about him and Hawaii going undefeated into the BCS Sugar Bowl, he got his ass kicked by Georgia. I give the guy props for his records, but his situation was like if the Gators played NAIA opponents all year
