ESPN: Clayton Expects Skins to Tender Campbell for a 1st and 3rd

[hail_2_da_skins]

His name is Jason Campbell, not Candle. How can you call yourself a Redskin fan with this kind of crap. I used to call Tony Romo, Homo. Romo is a Cowboy, so its understandable. Out of respect for some of my Cowboy friends, I stop doing it. It's disrespectful. It doesn't matter if you like the guy or not, its wrong. Stop it.

All of this discussion will be moot when the Rams take Bradford at #1 anyways.

Nightmare Draft:

1. Rams - Bradford
2. Lions - Okung
3. Bucs - Suh
4. No one wants to trade up. Of course selecting Jimmy Clausen would be a good pick.

If Swartz can resist Suh and Gerald McCoy this could very well happen. Stafford could use the protection.

You meant perfect draft

here is the breakdown for rest FA tenders:

Four years of experience

•Original pick compensation: $1.176 million
•Second round tender: $1.759 million
•First round tender: $2.521 million
•First and third tender: $3.168 million
Five years of NFL experience

•Original pick compensation: $1.226 million
•Second round tender: $1.809 million
•First round tender: $2.621 million
•First and third round tender: $3.268 million

3.2 mil to tender JC is not bad at all.

i think or would like to think that if JC is tendered then traded, it woud be comparable to matt schaub. the falcons tendered him for a 1st and 3rd then traded him to the texans for a 2nd (and 6th?) round picks.

if we can get a 2nd for JC, it seems pretty clear to me we should take it. probably even a 3rd and 5th rounder as well.

i would not trade JC for a 4th rounder, he has more value being our QB next year (no matter what happens in the draft) then a 4th roundr imo.

and the talk on the first page about JC wanting a trade if we draft a qb no. 4. he said this past month that he is a starter in this league and doesnt want to and shouldnt have to compete. if we actually draft a qb no. 4, i think JC will let it be known he is not happy but in a polite and professional way, which i would have no prob with and would understand.

sorry to quote myself but couldnt we tender JC at the "original pick compensation" of 1.2 mil. then if another team signs him we would get a 1st rounder in return since JC was a 1st round pick?

instead of the 1st and 3rd.

Well along with those tenders come things like the rights of first refusal, etc

the one that we'd put Campbell under would be:

"The player's original team maintains the Right of First Refusal and First Round Draft Selection and Third Round Draft Selection (both from the team with which he signs) if the team tenders an offer of one year at $2.792 million OR at least 110% of the player's prior year’s salary -- whichever is greater."

Granted you can get the right of first refusal otherwise, but with Campbell being the top FA QB you'll tender him highest and then work on negotiations otherwise. I think that his current salary has part to do with it as well.

I think that "is accurate enough" was meant to mean across all throws, not just the long ones

Why do people think Clausen would be a good pick at 4. The dude is a second round caliber QB who will be drafted in the first round because its such a weak QB class. Drafting Clausen at 4 would be the absolute worst possible way to use the pick. At 36, it would be a decent move.

Why do you think he's 2nd round caliber?

Some folks in this thread are really undervaluing Campbell. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a big Campbell fan and I'm excited by the idea that we might be moving on at QB. But JC has a career passer rating in the 80's and has a good amount of starting experience. He could start or be a competent backup for many teams. The folks who think he's worth nothing or only worth a 4th round pick are not giving JC his due, even if he is made of wax.

I think the 1st and 3rd tender is an astute personnel move.

For all his starting experience you'd think he'd have even a little pocket presence and feel for the position but he doesnt. I agrre that he could be a decent back up but he's not a starter that will take a team anywhere.
