michael_33 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 This is how you reallly can find it... You take our current team as of right now! Then you give yourself the option to add any Redskins great from any era in his prime to the team... But you can only add 1 guy (great) to the team...!! If then you are satisfied...Then you have found our most major weakness at that position... For example: I will add Sammy Baugh to our current team....He's not only my favorite player of all time...But also considered the greatest Skins QB of all time... Does my team make the playoffs automatically?Just with the addition of Slingin' Sammy? This is actually very hard to decide cause of the era Sammy played,but it does make you wonder...? Is the QB position,the weakest position on the team?Or is it another? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truant Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I'm torn. Art Monk. Russ Grimm. I'll have to go with Dexter Manley. I know our D is awesome, but with Manley we'd shut teams out left and right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-Prime Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Wow that's a hard question.. Darrel Green, Wilber Marshall, Charles Mann, DexMan, Art Monk.. Hmmmm Think I'll go with Jeff Bostic.. anchored our O line for years and in his prime could do it all.. omg our running game would so own.. Samuals, Doherty<sp>, Bostic, Thomas and Jansen droooooool.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thiebear Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I'd be hard pressed not to add Art Monk... the goto guy 3rd down conversion adds 14 pts a game..... The defense just does what it does Portis just does what he does Ramsey has the M&M's to throw too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotgunner Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Good question! I would have to say Baugh, QB is our weakness. Hopefully PR makes that a thing of the past this season.:point2sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris 44 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Would love to see Dave Butz on this defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooney Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I'd take Sonny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bird_1972 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 You know... maybe its cause he is more of a "modern day QB", but I'd rather see Sonny at QB than S. Baugh. No disrespect, mind you, but I think Sonny would be a great leader for this team. B&G through and through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek1973 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 For me it would be Grimm. With him in there and our current group Portis would be a 2000 yard runner and Ramsey will throw the ball at will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Om Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Tell you what ... this will cause some to smack their foreheads, but I'd give some consideration to Joe Theismann. He and Gibbs were VERY much on the same page, and Theismann's skill-set (accurate, mobile, sharp as a tack in processing information both in practice and on the field) was incredibly well-suited to what Gibbs wants from a QB. You put Joey T. circa '82-'84 on today's team, and you've got something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinshog Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 It would be great to see Sonny behind a decent line, something he never had when he played. But I would have to go with someone like an Art Monk, a go to receiver. Hopefully one of these guys will break out this year, but I don't see any Monk type players right now. Our OL is solid, Ramsey should have a breakout year, the running game will be intact, our D is solid as well as special teams. I think we need a go to guy in Art Monk to get us those extra yards.

wskin44 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Sonny, because he's my all time favorite QB and I would love to see what he could do. Other strong considerations: Joe Jacoby. The best offensive lineman we ever had IMO. He could move anybody. Joe T. was an interesting choice. I could see this team clicking with him at the helm. Interesting that no one has mentioned Riggo, the most dominant player Gibbs ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I think the center position was the weakest and the skins addressed it by signing Rabach. If they stay healthy, our five starters could make up one of the best lines in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dg28daman Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 '91 Mark Rypien. He tore it up that year, and with him, we'd win the Super Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriangleSkinsFan Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I wish I could bring back Charley Casserly. As an organization, The skins would benefit the most from this change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedskinLifer Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 While Monk and Manley are hard to pass up, since the offense is the weak point, I'd chose to add a player on that side, and I'd take Don Warren. We've needed a blocking TE for what seems like forever, and Warren was the prototypical blocker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Jones Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I agree with either Joey T. or Mark Rypien when they had their best years. A hot QB that fits Gibbs system would take us deep into the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoony Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I would put Joe Theisman on the team... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemesis Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 It would have to be Dexter Manley. Hands down. :notworthy He was a beast. Put him on the same side as arrington, who would YOU choose to stop. You cannot stop either on one on one. So I would have to put my vote in for Dexter. It would automatically vault our defense to #1. You can have a bad offense and still win many games if the Defense could pull shut outs like this one would. 11 wins auto...matic!! (as long as Brunell is not the starting QB, that is!)

flyingtiger1013 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Sonny or Joe T. I love Bostic but even he said he would be way too small to play today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neophyte Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 While I am very tempted to go with a QB like Joe or Sonny I won't because I think Pat is going to be much better this year. I am also tempted to go with Riggins because the combination of 3 yards anytime you need it and the chance to go to the house on every play (Portis) would be fun to watch. Other great answers I have read here include Jacoby, Grimm, Warren and Monk. All good answers. However, in the end I will have to go with Dexter Manley. This team has not had truely dominant pass rushing DE since the days of Manley and Mann. I am talking about someone that the opposing offensive coaches had to game plan around and account for every play. I can't help but wonder how dominant this defense might be with Dexter lining up every play. It is a great defense now but it might one for the ages with Dexter.

Mr. S Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I woulda said Monk or Clark, but then I figger, execution is key, and if we cant, then what is the point of having those receivers. Plus I think our current core of all #2 receivers will surprise people. Joe Jacoby or Russ Grimm sound good, but our line has talent. Ill throw my vote down for Manley. A pure, pass rusher that he was, his stats say it all, him adn Corny would totally tear up QBs and o-lines, especially with Gregg Williams scheming behind them.
