Well we do have Brock now, and he's just as good as anybody else.

At this point? I take Brock over RGIII, Kessler or McCown. So, IMO, we've upgraded already.

Hey, I've seen the episode of MythBusters where they proved that you CAN polish a turd, so we've got that going for us.

Guess not...I was hoping to see more.

1. Now does this mean we intend on keeping Brock? Sashi was happy to get a 2nd round pick was it for our QB???

2. Does this mean we are going for Tribusky at #1. Will all the Garrett believers get scared now? I would.

I didn't add this up to the move to get Brock.

Or are we ALL IN WITH KESSLER?

I'm afraid with all the OL help in FA, and now this were going to blow this draft with a #1 QB. We need Garrett at #1.

I'm pretty convinced that the OL moves signal that the mock drafts are on the right track. Most of them have us going very heavy on defense, which is what I see happening.

I hope we go heavy on D. I shudder at the mocks that have us going w Trub, Fournette or Howard in the 1st. This draft is deep on D, let's get some impact players on that side of the ball.

Are u seriously saying that if a team signs RG3 or Brock that's going to stop them from drafting a QB ... WOW ...

I know u know more about football than that ... so we'll write it off to the "weed factor" ..

Seriously Swish ... no way signing either of those two bums precludes someone from drafting a QB in the top 11 ...

THATS WHACK .... *L* ..

Griffin was really, really bad and he couldn't stay healthy.

I don't see why any team would want him. He clearly isn't a starter and you don't want your backup to be someone who is fragile.

We may have our eyes on someone else besides a QB in the draft. You don't think it could be Colin K. or Cutler do you? My, that would be something wouldn't it? willynilly

Your guess is as good as mine .. many options .. most of them really bad ones .. *L* ..

If we aquire no one and Cody starts ... I wouldn't say all in on Cody .. to me he'd be a "bridge" guy to me even though there's no one on the other side of the bridge yet .. *LOL* ..

I'm thinking Brock will start over Cody. If we keep him around it would be to start him. He reminds me of a mobile Derek Anderson...

While I can understand why Jimmy G would be willing to trade Jimmy G because he can become a FA next year, I can't see why Washington would trade Cousins.

I would certainly be interested if they are willing.


Btw..............I wonder if ed bolted now that RGIII was cut? I hope not. He was a pretty good poster.

Only way I can see Redskins trading Cousins is humid he straight up tells them he won't play for them next year, and they just want to get a slew of picks for him while they can.

Long shot I guess, but there are already reports that he asked to be traded, so maybe he really doesn't want to be there

I thought I heard on NFL network that he didn't sign his tender. Honestly, I don't know what his situation is, but it appears that he wants out. That team is a mess right now.

I think he signed the franchise tender today. It does make him eligible to be traded, though.

And yeah, you are right...........they are a complete mess right now. That crap w/their GM is embarrassing. They actually leaked a story that he was an alcoholic. Even if he is, it's just:

I read somewhere that he said he wouldn't sign an extension as long as Bruce Allen is with the organization.

Me too. He's a pro. Fought back from that injury too. Do wish we could have seen more of him before the team went into shambles mid-way to the end of the season.

Is what it is though. He wasn't in the plans. Don't think it would have worked out either. I just don't think he has a good sense of sitting in the pocket, reading the coverage, passing to the guy that's open.

I just don't sense the ability to protect himself, nor stay healthy. I think RGIII is the kind of person that can find a way to get injured, even if he had a brick wall blocking for him.
