How bout them skins?

[Evan]

anyone else surprised by the lack of moves the skins have made? Lots of good o lineman have been signed the past week or so by other teams and the skins havent appeared to even be interested

[Mike]

you don't need an o-line when the ball is in sexy rexy's hands. just chuck that shit.

[Apoc]

McNabb? Interesting.

[Evan]

for a high 2nd round pick.

words fail me to describe the fail.

[Ryan T]

I'm with Evan. For a 3rd or 4th round pic, I guess I could stomach it, but for near the top of the 2nd round, there is way too much potential talent out there.

[Mike]

Same old.

hey, they had to do something quick to continue their offseason winning streak. so I didn't realize that Washington is now the new retirement home in the NFL

I'll take McNabb over Campbell any day.

As my favorite sports blog put it, with the Skins signing McNabb, Willie Parker, and Larry Johnson, the Redskins are poised to win the 2004 Superbowl.

[Evan]

I'll take McNabb over Campbell any day.

me too, but that wasnt the trade.

Ill take Campbell and a high 2nd round pick over McNabb any day.

[Apoc]

Rumor has it they offered Haynesworth and the Eagles said no.

I think the Eagles got the better end of the deal, because I have a feeling McNabb wouldn't/won't resign with either team after this year. I guess the Eagles figured he wouldn't be enough of a threat for one year in the division. The Skins can make the most of it by keeping him around to mentor a young QB (that isn't Campbell).

It could be worse, you could have traded a 1st, 3rd and 6th for Roy Williams.

We'll see, ESPN was reporting it was highly likely that an extension would happen at some point. Either way I don't really know what to think of this deal, obviously it makes us a better team in September, but I'm not sure it was the best long term deal for the team.

Watching the McNabb press conference now. He says he's excited to be there but he doesn't really seem like it. He was definitely bitter about being traded. I think it's a good pick for the Skins but I feel like they might have sold their souls a little to get him.

[Evan]

Williams over Okung? ummm ok....


at least it was O line

[DavidM]

From what I've read he has more upside and is a better fit in the zone blocking scheme. I won't judge too quickly because they did address what we really need and hopefully the new staff knows what they're doing.

[Mike]

The only person who impressed me besides Suh was Berry. We weren't going to get Suh and we didn't need Berry, but there's a school of thought that you ought to pick talent over need... it seems to have historically worked out better. Soooo... I could care less about what we got, but OL is definitely needed most so I suppose we did as best we could.

and now Joey Galloway

:lol:

Woooo big win! Redskins in all honesty didn't look that great, but I like McNabb behind the wheel and Shanahan's son calling the plays. They REALLY need to work on their hands though gosh, they dropped so many great passes AND some pretty straightforward interception attempts. And by blowing that assignment on Austin they almost gave the game away. But a win is a win!

[Evan]

lol...so didnt deserve that win.

but at least Hall has turned out to be agreat DB

[DavidM]

It's not like the cowboys deserved it either....
