Which, of course, would have been a way better course of action than we've actually gone.
Watching Campbell twice play before he went down, nothing from his performances I witnessed said he had gotten better from a average-below average QB. Hue done a decent job in a fairly poor AFC west, but I didnt expect a step back this year. Raiders always have underrated talent on their teams, which was a nice place for JC to land. I actually think JC will have a fair amount of suitors this offseason, a couple in starters situations, a couple in back up situations.

Re: 2012 redskins

Given the choice I'd gladly take JC over Grossman. JC might not be a game breaker (neither is Grossman), but he's not going to kill you with INTs either. He's an efficient game manager that can win games in this league with a supporting cast. Sooner or later Grossman will kill you with a crucial INT or fumble.

Re: 2012 redskins

It would be nice to have the 2nd round pick we used to trade for McNabb, We could have gotten Gronkowski, Taylor Mays, Ben tate, Sean lee, or terrance cody with that pick.

I know I shouldn't on the could haves.

Re: 2012 redskins

Coaching changes could be coming.

2. Would it surprise anyone if changes were made to the coaching staff? No. And I don’t think it would surprise some of the coaches. Shanahan will address this, as much as he is wont to do, on Monday.

Re: 2012 redskins

I have been watching Texas A&M and North Western today, and news to me that Tannehill was on target with most of his throws. Quite a few drops on him. MAybe we should go Alshon Jeffery or Blackmon first then go Tannehill second. Thoughts?

Might not have a choice. But Alshon? No. Blackmon yes.

This

I love this strategy; Tannehill is on time and accurate and has high upside. He has played QB for only one and a half seasons. Also young man seems really composed in pocket but has some running/scrambling skills. Right now, I would say his skills are better fit in Redskins' scheme than RGIII. It's going to an interesting draft; looking forward to see which way we go!

Similar to bengals of last year. I would say it worked out, so why not.

the little bit I have seen Tannehill he has looked ok.

But if you look at the draft history of qbs that go in the second round almost all of them are backups or bust. Only four second rounders currently start in the NFL, Drew Brees, Andy Dalton, Tavrius Jackson, and Kevin Kolb. TJax should be a backup. Same for Kolb. Drew brees would have been taken in the first if he had been 5 inches taller (he was the first pick of the second round). Andy Dalton is the only one who seems out of place in the second and his career in the NFL is so young its hard to say for certain if he will be an overwhelming success.

Re: 2012 redskins

Tannehill likely won't make it to the second round. He'll likely go in the top 15 to 20.

I would flip the strategy mentioned above - take Tannehill in the first and then take a WR early in the second or even trade back into the late first round and grab someone like Baylor's Wright.

Alot to be decided from now til the combine. But yes, IF MS likes Tannehill/Foles might be wise to go that route.

RGIII plays in a spread offense. It's tough to guage how he fits into a nfl style offense. Tannehill, from what I say today, looked pretty decent. He had one bad throw, but very accurate.
