The Redskins gave up enough picks that equated to more than a whole draft class to get what they thought would be Cam.

 

I'd say we gave up less with just having a shitty draft.  Oh and we got something a whole lot better than RG3.

We got Cam.

 

Anything else would have been icing on the cake.

 

Marty screwed us in many ways, but I have to take my hat off to the man for picking Cam and Kuechly. Neither one were consensus picks, but Hurney rolled the dice and gave us our cornerstones for the next decade.

I'm looking at it this way...

Sure I only passed one of my six classes, but the class I did pass I got a 100 in.

 

But in that scenario that one class was good enough to get your foot in the door of any Ivy league college.

 

The name of the game in today's NFL is to have that QB you can build around, any draft where you get that player, it's an automatic win.

 

Giving us a D in the draft where we got Cam, regardless of any other picks, is a joke.

 

C at worst, I'd probably say C+ to B-

It was like a biochemistry class that no one had ever gotten a 100 in before.

      Yup the casuals on Facebook ive gotten 85 laughing or angry emojis so far for pointing it out.  The amount of them throwing a fit because the canes were booed is insane

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By woahfraze · Posted

      Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen.

      Jalen Ramsey

      Totally agree with you, if we had invested in drafting a corner or two I wouldn’t even ponder adding Ramsey. But, to be honest we legit added nobody to our corner room this offseason we have nobody worth developing. Even if Chau Smith Wade is better then what I think, he is the only guy we have invested draft capital into outside of our starters.
