corrupt3d Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 ]']You guys are so silly.Zorn has implemented a Groundbreaking Offense with dual QBs. We already have a good one' date=' but his Super Duper Offense requires 2. We'll need to draft a Matt Ryan, or even reach for a Brian Brohm at 21. The fact that we sent a lone Scout was simply a disguise, so nobody will see it coming this fall. All will bow before Zorn.[/quote'] you had to go and tell people?!?!

Cpt.Chaos47 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Teams scout just about every player thats projected to go in the 1st round. They'd be stupid not to. Teams try to keep who they are drafting secretive, so if they only talked to a couple guys it would be very telling. Plus you never know who you might want to target via FA or Trade a couple years down the rode. Talking to as many players as possible gives the team a heads up going into FA or trade talks.

Cambl2Moss Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 It looks like Campbell might not be the QB of the future. I guess after watching Collins run the show last season it might have "Turned" some heads.http://www.boston.com/sports/football/patriots/reiss_pieces/2008/03/teams_in_attend.html I read that 30 of 32 teams were there scouting him...is that not true? I wouldnt read too much into it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soup Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I'd rather stay with Campbell. 19 INTs in college, this guy is a bust waiting to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsMaster88 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 They've scouted the top QB in the NFL draft every single year. Not important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Pretty much every team scouts every premier talent, and besides Campbell is no sure thing to amount to anything and you'd be a fool to not at least see what Ryan's made of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDSKNfaithfull Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 How man of these threads did we see last year? Gibbs rubbed off and set the way things are done. The Redskins will scout just about everyplayer who is a first round prospect. Last year people were going nutz because we were scouting Jamarcus Russell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On that note, neither is Ryan. We'd be even more foolish to trade up and get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire71 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 No worries, guys. I think this was more for research purposes. If we fall 10 picks but then get an extra mid-rounder as a result, or if we're just evaluating our options. You never know what could happen, too. Suppose the team that drafts and eventually starts Matt Ryan ends up being on our schedule next year. Well, we'll know some of Ryan's strengths and weaknesses by that point and have a good gameplan to counter him. The Redskins might draft a quarterback - but it'll be a mid-rounder, and barring injury, Jason Campbell will be our starter next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veretax Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I imagine between now and the draft we'll here that the Redskins are looking at every player that's rated in the first round, From Long to whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrellsMyHero28 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 As a Tech fan, I've seen quite a bit of what Matt Ryan can and can't do. Yes he beat us on a last minute touchdown and that highlight will always haunt me, but those of you who watched know that Matt Ryan was less than impressive during the game. He was 25/52 (48%) with 2 TDs, 2 INTs and an average of 5.5 yards. Tech played excellent defense and Matt Ryan looked confused and threw quite a few balls in the dirt. Granted, it was pouring down rain and Lane Stadium was about as loud as I've heard it but after that game I wasn't overly impressed with him. Tech went with a prevent defense on the final drive and blew the coverage on the last play, even Glennon could have made the throw. Next up is the ACC championship. For the first half, Tech played soft zone coverage and Matt Ryan picked us apart. I was screaming my head off to switch to man because BCs receivers were not very impressive and with Macho Harris and Brandon Flowers at corner it made a ton of sense. BC put up 16 points but looked dominant on offense, despite the fact that the score was tied. I was extremely impressed with Matt Ryan and pretty concerned about the rest of the game. In the second half, Tech switched to man and dialed up the pressure and Matt Ryan looked like a totally different person. BC didn't score at all and Ryan seemed like the only passes he could complete were to his running back in the flat. Also, don't forget that after beating Tech in Blacksburg, Matt Ryan went 26/53 for 415 yards and 2 TDs but threw 3 picks against an FSU defense that got pounded by Tech later on in the year. So, will he turn out to be a good NFL quarterback? I think that he was hindered by the fact that his WR core was pretty poor but overall I'm not entirely sure. I think he is worth the chance for sure but so many good college QBs end up being such a bust in the NFL that its hard to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfbovey Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 They are scouting and evaluating, but it does not mean that they are willing to invest their first rounder on a QB. Let alone trade up to get into a position to take a guy like Ryan. If we trade into the top 5 it will be to take a defensive lineman like Long or Gholston.

dfbovey Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Oh, and the only thing that would make me raise my eyebrow would be if they decided to interview him and bring him in for a private interview. Because that would show a true interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan won't be there at #21 and we're not trading up for this guy when QB is a non-issue. 2. There are other players from BC participating at the workout and I'm sure the Skins are scouting alot of players for rounds 1-7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good insight DarrellsMyHero28, The guy seems to be too inconsitent to me and i would say that he throws too many INT's, but Favre threw a lot of INT's and look at where he ended up...

RDSKNfaithfull Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Watching path to the draft right now and they said 23 teams were there to scout Ryan. More importantly I was happy to see with my own eyes that Vinny and Buges were in Virginia today looking at Albert I don't think he will make it to 21 but if he does it sounds good to me.

twistedpower Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 the way i look at it the Redskins sent a scout to the Boston College pro day not the Matt Ryan pro day, the draft has more then one round so if one of the other BC players come up in round three, five or six we might want to know something about him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
