Goingforburgundy Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 95% sure the Skins take a QB with their top pick this year. Only chance we dont is if were sitting on the mid teens and the top MLB prospect is sitting there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
War Paint Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 BTW, I think it's pretty obvious that Indy plans to suck for Luck. Yeah, I think I heard on ESPN one day that their GM told their fans to be patient for 16 months and that he promises it would be worth it. I caught it in passing, so I might be taking something out of context. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailGreen28 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 You really think the top 3 qbs in the draft are going to be avaliable by the 20th+ pick? We will have to give up a first and second to move into position to take one. No question about it. The way we are hitting on our rookies though, we can justify giving up a pick because there arent as many glaring holes.All top 3, no. A guy who can sit a couple years and be something special when he gets PT, absolutely. Especially with Mike and Kyle in charge.We still have glaring holes. We need OL help. And CB help. Atogwe (30), Landry(injury), and Fletch(old) aren't really long-term solutions for their position. We don't have a #1 WR, Moss heroics nonwithstanding. We are not one player away.

tml6157 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Vinny, is that you? Wow funny. NOT! If you have the ammo, a need for that position and could change your team for 10+ years then you do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spjunkies Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 If I'm the Skins I give up 2012: 1 & 2 2013 1 & 4 For Luck MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJL Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Yes, I think we should draft a QB next year. Both out guys are around 30. Let him sit and learn and compete for the job when he's ready Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mi6 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Yes, he need to draft a FRANCHISE QB! Rex at 30 and with 9 odd years in the league still makes bone head plays. Take his interceptions in today's game against the Cardinals. It nearly cost us the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDawg Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I doubt any of the teams that are going to be in position for Luck will trade away the opportunity to take him. With this win, I think we're out of the Luck sweepstakes. There are still a NUMBER of good QB prospects. Matt Barkley, USC Landry Jones, OU (Not a big fan of his) Robert Griffin III, Baylor Nick Foles, Arizona (I know, some here aren't high on him, but I like him) Ryan Lindley, San Diego State Among others.

skinsfansince1988 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 if there is a QB they love and no major need that has to be filled then yes I would. A rookie QB should sit a few years anyway. It is funny everyone in the media was saying how dumb we were for not taking a QB, I think taking Kerrigan was the right move so I trust whatever Shanahan and Allen do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bibby Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 All top 3, no. A guy who can sit a couple years and be something special when he gets PT, absolutely.

I just don't know/or heard of any prospects besides the Luck/Landry/Barkley bunch? I'll ask here, but a question for the 2012 draft prospect thread.. Are there any QBs in the draft that have great potential but need a couple years to ride the bench that will be avaliable at the slotted spot IF we draft in the late round.

But KDAWG just mentioned some. Last draft, I like the way Shanahallen GAINED picks and still got us guys like Ker-again, Helu, and Nield. Still hoping Hankerson will be good and Jenkins good next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enter Apotheosis Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Shanahan WILL draft a QB. I can practically guarantee that much. How good Grossman plays will most likely dictate where we draft a QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinzerdie Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I think you have to draft a QB regardless, doesn't have to be in the first round, but somewhere in the draft, you have to secure a future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirt Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Well I did watch Luck last night and man. He's just good. SPECIFICALLY the way he throws tall, over his head and is still accurate. After all of Rex's batted balls today I'm almost ready to sell the farm for Luck just based on that lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asking Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Yes, cosigning with the posters saying you have to because he's 30. QBs can play in this league barring injury well into their 30s, but if something potentially better comes along, then you draft him and let him learn the offense for a year or two before handing over the reins. In the mean time, Rex will be Rex. He has flashes of brilliance and sometimes tries to force passes into tight coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrelgreenie Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 If Redskins make the Playoffs cause of Rex, do we still draft a QB Yes, just not in the 1st 2 rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistertim Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Hence, Jason Campbell. How'd that work out, and why? To be honest, they took Campbell way too early. I think most teams and scouts really had him graded as maybe a 2nd rounder. He is a decent QB; nothing special but not terrible...pretty much average. And that is what you're most likely to get with a 2nd round QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MumboSauce Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Still draft a guy regardless to bring along. If he buys the young future some time so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Yes, though maybe not a 1st-2nd rounder. I definitely still would leave no stone unturned though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a decent QB; nothing special but not terrible...pretty much average. And that is what you're most likely to get with a 2nd round QB.Just saying we traded up to get him. Sacrificed a bit of the future, for a guy who got outplayed by a career backup in 2007, and couldn't carry us in 2008 when we needed him. Enough attempts at quick fixes, I was shocked at how well Shanahallen did trading DOWN last draft.edit: The Redskins traded up in the draft to get Campbell, surrendering a third round pick in the 2005 NFL draft, along with first and fourth round picks in 2006.

Commander PK Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I think you delay drafting a franchise QB until you are sure that the guy is what you are looking for. We don't need to draft just anybody at QB right now. I think we are ok with Rex and John until the front office is convinced they have a guy that can be the future.

winstonspencer Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Yes, just not in the 1st 2 rounds. the problem is all the QB's we thought would be around in the 2nd, 3rd OR 4th round last years draft all went in the first round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HogNose Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Yes. We draft Jones, Luck, or Barkley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
