I don't think it'll be Sanchez either. All this hoopla is for nothing.
OT is what I want most. If they don't get one of the big five OT's they'll grab up the best DE.
I don't think they'll trade back either. It's hard to trade back in the draft and we got lucky last year.

And a new O-line.

He's not any better or worse than Eli was before winning it all. Before that late season tear, Giants fans were just as unhappy with him and for the same reasons as us and JC.
That defense gave him the opportunity and he made the most of it.

I want d line most. Otter said it two years ago and he's right; d line first.
As for trading back, all we have to do is quit pissing picks away and we won't have to trade back; we'll just have 'em.

Tru dat! If you want to improve your QB, improve your OL.

Stafford guaranteed money: $42 mil. Last years #1, Long, guaranteed dough; $30 mil. The recession is OVER!

Daer Dan Snyder,
Consider this in terms of how it is done;
New England Patriots Draft Picks - wbztv.com
I think they have 11 total.

I heard on ESPN that Campbell has said if the Skins draft a QB, he will request a trade. He doesn't want to be somewhere that doesn't want him.
Otter
Nothing to see here

At this point, I think he should pull a Cutler on them.

I'm not even a Skins fan and I can see he's a good qb. He just needs help. They would be stupid to let him go. And they got Colt. I don't get it.

They're out to get us
damn right!You should learn to respect the SEC............best conference available, past present and future.
Who cares? Name a pro anything from Mississippi Valley State. Oh right, some nobody named Jerry Rice. :shrug:
How about Auburn? Jason Campbell.
That's why I think it'll happen again. The Skins brain-trust is hopeless! Who picks 3 in a DRAFT, let alone the 2nd round?
I think Matt Ryan got more than Long did last year at #3. Granted, Ryan and Stafford both had 6 year deals, while Long only had a 5 year deal. I think Haynesworth had 40mil guaranteed so they just "had" to get a bigger contract than that.
The next collective bargaining agreement is going to severely reduce top draft pick salaries. This is ludicrous! How could you pay a potential BUST $42 million GUARANTEED? Peyton Manning and Tom Brady will probably never see that kind of money in a contract (if they have or will, my bad...but u get the point) and they're both Hall of Famers. It's absurd.
The NBA, NHL, and MLB have it right. You pay them lower money when they get picked up...still DECENT salaries, but nothing outrageous, and then if they EARN their keep, they cash in. That's how it should be done.
(myself included) when Sanchez was picked up by the Jets. Then the crowd went crazy when Orakpo was chosen.

Shows how much you know.
A lot of successful NFL teams draft singular positions in groups in the draft. The thought process is that at least a few guys will stick. The New York Giants found their famed front seven this way. The Chargers are very well known for doing this recently.
The Skins needed to draft OT or DE in the draft and they did. I didn't think they'd delve into the draft too far to get Sanchez but I was wrong. When Zorn was speaking to the crowd a chant ensued, "Campbell...Campbell...Campbell." You could tell what the fans wanted. Zorn and crew looked very uncomfortable and ran off stage in quick fashion unlike in previous years. They were taking Sanchez, I knew it and everyone knew it. Luckily, the Jets made the bold but bad move, I thought. Redskins fans rejoiced when the Jets selected Sanchez at 5. Then, the unthinkable happened. Orakpo fell right into our laps.
