BRAVEONAWARPATH Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 I keep waiting for reports to start to come out about adding Chicago to that list. One might connect the dots with Cutler there. I just heard a report/rumor that Shanahan would like to have Cutler in Washington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlanta Skins Fan Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 I just heard a report/rumor that Shanahan would like to have Cutler in Washington. I was waiting for that to happen. It would shave 2 years off the time required to develop a rookie. But, the right rookie might be better than Cutler and cost less. The good news is that no one knows better than Shanahan what he can get out of Cutler. If Shanahan thinks this is the right move, it probably is. Extremely low risk. But, it does require the Bears to eat sh*t, and they might decline the trade on the grounds that the trade should cost their front office and coaches their jobs. The development of Jason Campbell makes this trade easier. Bears get a new QB to fail with, and Cutler takes the Skins to the playoffs in year 1. Shanahan loves this move, because winning with Cutler is the perfect middle finger to the Broncos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins21! Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 This will be a tough decision for Shanahan. Dallas has a brand new stadium and a more talented roster but Jerry Jones calls all the shots and will want Jason Garrett as the OC. Jones will also draft and sign whatever free agent catches his eye. Jerry also ran three hall of fame coaches out of Dallas in Landry, Johnson, and Parcells. Snyder has deep pockets, is willing to sign whatever players you want, and will most likely let a coach like Shanahan have complete control over the team, much like he did with Gibbs. This team needs to be overhauled but Allen is in place for Shanahan to do things his way. Shanahan can also have Kyle be the OC with no contraversy. The money will probably be better in DC. Jerry has a stadium to pay for but Texas has no state taxes! I think Snyder will do whatever it takes to get Shanahan!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvtbred Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 PFT was reporting Dallas is Shanahan's top choice. I know he's a control freak so it makes me wonder why. If it's true that is. Shanahan is anything but stupid. He is putting the guys with the two largest checking accounts up against each other hoping for a bidding war. Even if he has decided here is the only place for him it's all about how much in the end. Remember he gets 7 mil next year staying at home.

MattFancy Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 The team we have to be worried about is the Bears. If they fire Lovie, Shany might want to reunite with Cutler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The development of Jason Campbell makes this trade easier. Bears get a new QB to fail with, and Cutler takes the Skins to the playoffs in year 1. It would take Campbell, a first round pick, maybe 2, and a second round pick for the Bears to give Cutler up. They would have to recoup what they gave up for him. The Bears job may come open but if it doesn't, look for Jeremy Bates to be their next OC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soup Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 I don't like Shanny but just the thought of having the skins look like a normal team is great. I'm just happy the redskins are going to be run by real football minds for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
