Re: Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice

Re: Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice
I definitely see where your coming from. I'm just tired of losing 21 years since our last SB appearance. I was 2. Couldn't get Bradford, McNabb failed, Locker was stolen. Now is the time to risk it for your QB. I still blame Matt Barkley though.

We all want a 'franchise' QB but there are many ways to get one. But no matter how we get the QB we have to be able to support their development until they can support the team. And I think where this team has failed over and over again is not having the right pieces in place to support a young potential 'franchise' QB. We have to admit that we've been a bad team/franchise for quite some time. And imo a bad franchise cannot produce a 'franchise' QB. However I think the proper peices are in place now. That's why I wish that we would have drafted our QB of the future last year. And its why I root against almost every QB that was drafted after Locker because everyone of those QBs could have been our QB. Blaine Gabbert's rookie struggles have saved this franchise from having to answer some tough questions. I just hope we fix our QB situation before Blaine turns the corner. |

Re: Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice
I swear it's like some of you don't want to draft a QB until we have 5 all-pro offensive lineman (all home grown draft picks of course), a 1,000 yard rusher, a pro bowl receiver, and a pro bowl Tight End. Or you want to draft a QB but God forbid we go after one of the guys that has a good chance of being successful. No we'd rather go after a Jason Campbell or a Patrick Ramsey level prospect and we all know how much everyone loved him during his time here.
Building the perfect team sans QB only works in a Brett Favre situation like Minnesota a couple of years ago. Where all the parts are there and the veteran QB just steps in and helps the team compete for a Super Bowl. With a rookie QB you need enough pieces in place to prevent him from getting killed but not so much that the team isn't going to be together by the time you're ready to compete for a Super Bowl. And what are we really giving up with packaging draft picks to move up? The next Laron Landry? Brian Orakpo is struggling to get to double digit sacks. Ryan Kerrigan is good but he isn't a game changer. Why are we so damn attached to our first round picks? Rocky McIntosh? Devin Thomas? Malcolm Kelly? How many of our high draft picks have kept us out of the cellar? I know we need to draft and build a core but this captain check down draft strategy is not going to do squat when it comes to winning a freaking Super Bowl. Something the Giants have won twice since 2007.

Re: Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice
Nah, in all seriousness RGIII. And for him I'm more then willing to do the Eli trade. I saw how effective the running game in Atlanta was off bootlegs with Michael Vick, running lanes wide open and not because of blocking but fear of the QB hitting the edge and breaking off a big game leaving Warrick Dunn and TJ Duckett looking like pro bowl backs.
I can only imagine how that would work here in Washington, especially considering the fact that RGIII won't need 10 years and a prison term to learn how to pass in the NFL. Andrew Luck would be great but we would have to hit on a lot more then two or three draft picks to equal the impact someone like RGIII will bring to this franchise for the next decade.

Re: Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice
We did that last year. The result was Rex Grossman and John Beck. We also did it the year before. The result was Donovan McNabb.
