Why attend the dance when you can just watch it on youtube?

Interesting, no other QB who has "learned" by being Manning's back-up has amounted to much.

I would prefer to pass on Manning and draft a highly talented rookie (RG3) or trade for a young stud (Bradford...if available).

I'm not buying that Manning backup argument either. Jim Sorgi and Curtis Painter were never regarded as anything more than a "backup qb at best" option. That's not on Peyton.

QB information is all over the place, Skins brass are doing a good job keeping their intentions all mixed up.

On #Redskins prospective QB front: From what I have heard, the #Redskins have legit interest in P. Manning and Orton but not in Matt Flynn.

Mirrors what I've heard on Orton and Flynn. Have been hearing mixed on PM, but mostly that Mikes not a huge fan of the idea. Though I think Kyle is.

My opinion is go for it. I'll explain more in my acrylic painting

I like the smell of acrylic paint when I'm reading the Huffington Post.

JK.

Yes please do. It seems everytime I buy a jersey the team gets rid of them. Maybe if you get yours early the team will pass on him.

LOL - If we pick up Manning or Flynn, I don't think we trade up for RGiii - he'll have to fall to #6.

Good news is we'll know before the draft.

Dalton was always slated as a 2nd rounder. The senior bowl just sealed it.

That may be true, but avid game-tape watcher Greg Cosell of NFL Films doesn’t buy Dalton as more than a middle-round talent.

Just to show I was in Dalton's corner from the jump, but I made a huge mistake... I didn't think he would be 1st round talent and figured we could get him in the 2nd round.

I've learned from my mistake which is why I'm saying "IF" Weeden is the guy the coaching staff is looking at to draft then don't wait and hope he's there in the 2nd round, take him at #6 and not have to worry about him getting picked up by someone else. and yes I'm lobbying for Weeden this year.

Looks like that guy Chico was in Dalton's corner from your second link, 2nd page...

Manning....Bowe....Reiff....Foles/Weeden (Round 2). Add that to Helu, Davis, Hankerson etc.

Sudenly we don't look so bad on offense......

Over in Warwickshire. Still waiting for the Skins to come to Wembley before i one day get to DC....

As much as I'd love to keep our #6 overall pick, future picks, and players like orakpo and fill our qb need with signing manning, I can't think of any reason he would want to come here vs teams like Miami, Houston, and Arizona, and San Francisco. Those are all warm weather/stadium teams with much better talent on offense and defense AND coaching staffs who would let manning be manning.

PFT??? Really??
