joe Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 Now that the 'Skins are out of playoff contention, I'm thinking about next year. Do you think they should pursue Mark Brunell or Drew Bledsoe, assuming either is available? Would you agree that they're a half-decent QB away from being a very good team? —Ken Rice, Baltimore "I think the Redskins should jettison Tony Banks; sign a more reliable short-term solution at quarterback, like Gus Frerotte; hang onto Kent Graham as a backup; and take the second- or third-best quarterback in the draft, like Joey Harrington or Kurt Kittner, and season him for a year before giving him the job, hopefully, on opening day 2003." If this is King's opinion, perhaps we should keep Tony after all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redman Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 You might also find this interesting from Dr. Z.: 13 14 Washington Redskins (7-8) They're doing everything they can to keep the ball out of Tony Banks' hands. Witness last week's stats: 44 runs, 15 passes. Next year, if they somehow wind up with with a high-powered QB, a Bledsoe type, they could be right in there. ------------------ <IMG SRC="http://www.thelocker-room.com/images/RedskinLogo.jpg" border=0> "Loosen up, Sandy baby.

@DCGoldPants Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 I think everybody here with the exception of a certain Tony Banks fan realize that in 2 days, he'll be playing his last game as a Skin with Marty running the show at least. I hate to say this, but I agree with King except I want Blake, Lucas or Dilfer plus the 2nd or 3rd best QB in the draft. ------------------ <IMG SRC="http://www.nba.com/media/wizards/kwame_bobble90.gif" border=0> <IMG SRC="http://a188.g.akamaitech.net/f/188/920/1d/www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/images/I44993-2001Sep05" border=0> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 I just don't want Frerotte, even with experience in the WCO. I don't see him as a true upgrade over Banks, though he's got a bit more battle tested experience under fire. ------------------ Doom is in the box.

skinsfan44 Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 What the SKINS should do in my opinon is cut Banks, keep Graham as a backup, send Rosenfels to the NFLE to get some playing time, sign a F/A QB that wont blow our cap and get the best QB left in the draft(like Harrington). I would love to see Joey in Burgendy and Gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
