MVille_Skins Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Whatever the Redskins do, they need to make up there mind about what they want to do. I can't think of any other team in the league with so many questions and options that have been thrown out there come draft day. And they have all been good solutions, trade down, trade up, stay there and wait for someone to fall for us. The last thing the Redskins need is let OTHERS TEAMS DECIDING THERE FATE...we need a plan and we need to implement it, and do it well, luckily we have someone in dan snyder who can do just that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every team has difficult choices all the time. You just pay attention to the Skins, so you can't think of other teams. Off the top of my head. Take Detroit, yes the loser Franchise they are, don't know if they will : * Draft Stafford * Draft Curry * Draft OL * Trade Down * Miss pick on purpose At least they don't have the option in looking to trade up from the #1 spot. Although I see your point, Snyderatto would still try and trade up from the #1 spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIXX99 Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 The Redskins know exactly how and what they want to do on Draft Day. It's not like they just sit around and play cards all day. They have a plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cuchip703 Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 The Redskins know exactly how and what they want to do on Draft Day. It's not like they just sit around and play cards all day. They have a plan. The problem is that too often that "plan" is not the one that will improve our team where it needs it the most. Continually giving up draft picks (too many in a lot of cases) for other teams cast offs (TJ Duckett, JT [Miami didn't want him]) is not a great plan. Giving away half your draft (1st and a 3rd and a possible 1st next year) for a QB who is not a sure thing is a pretty stupid "plan" as well.

Skins PR Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 \In your opinion how many QBs in the last Decade were sure things coming out? Question not directed at me but I'll answer it... Zero. About 75% of the QBs taken in the first round have been busts. Which is why it is not a good plan to use up a plethora of picks on one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCS Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Actually,whatever the Redskins do,it will be like most if not all the rest of the teams. They're sure to piss off a certain amount of fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why it is not a good plan to use up a plethora of picks on one. I looked back to the 1998 Draft, which is about ten years of drafting not including this year. here are the 1st Round QBs: Okay looking only at First round QBs. 2008: Matt Ryan Joe Flacco Bust Count (Projecting 0) 2007: JaMarcus Russel Brady Quinn Bust Count (Projecting 1) 2006: Vince Young Matt Leinart Jay Cutler Bust Count (Projecting 1) 2005: Alex Smith Aaron Rodgers Jason campbell (Notable other picks Matt Casel 7th, Derek Anderson 6th, Kyle orton 4th) Bust Count (Projecting 2) 2004: Eli Manning Phillip Rivers Benn Rethlisberger JP Losman (Notable other picks Matt Schaub, 3rd, Luke McCown 4th) Bust Count (Projecting 1) 2003: carson Palmer Byron Leftwich Kyle Boller (notable other picks Chris Simms 3rd, seneca wallace 4th) Bust Count (1) 2002: David Car Joey Harrington Patrick Ramsey Bust Count (3) 2001: Michael Vick (notable other picks: Drew Brees 2nd rd) Bust Count (1 because of what happened to Vick off the field) 2000: Chad pennington (Notable other picks Marc Bulger 6th, Tom Brady 6th) Bust Count (0) 1999: tim Couch Donovan McNabb Akili Smith Daunte Culpepper Cade McNown Bust Count(3) 1998: Peyton Manning (notable other picks Brian greise 3rd, Matt Hasselbeck 6th) Bust count 0() total First Round picks sinec 1998: 28 total Bust count: 13 13/28 = 46% bust count. could be more if you project a few more as busts. If I included the busts in each round that number probably goes up :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they do what they NEED to do this year ! We need OT, DE and OLB help! Totally agree. I was once opposed to taking going OLB with the pick, but I don't care anymore. As long as they go with any of those 3 positions, I'll be happy. Just say no to Sanchez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usapatriot Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Whatever the Redskins do doesn't matter. 1. Snyder will still be in charge and as long as he calls the shots were hosed. 2. We pick players we don't need (Fred Davis from last year). 3. Even when we think we get a deal they turn bad. Last year we got Thomas and Kelly, both of which were projected in the 1st round (Thomas was thought to be a top 10 pick). I think Thomas will be great but Kelly gets hurt if you look at him funny.

Skins PR Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 1998:Peyton Manning (notable other picks Brian greise 3rd, Matt Hasselbeck 6th) Bust count 0 Wasn't there another QB taken in the 1st round that year? He would bring the overall bust percentage up to 50% Leftwhich... I could put him in the bust category and it's difficult to judge on anyone from 2005 on. All of those guys could end up being classified as busts. For the guys we can go ahead and judge for sure, I count 11 out of 19 (or 58%) as busts. Not as bad as I thought but still pretty scary.

Leftwich is a good quarterback, the fluke injuries were not his fault IMO. Bledsoe was a good QB too, if not for that fluke injury in New England who knows if we'd ever have known about tom Brady.
