So we sign Shockey, awesome. What now?


Recommended Posts

Pat Yasinskas from ESPN.com usually knows his stuff, but never would have predicted we would sign Shockey, which I'm actually excited about. But what now? Yasinskas predicts we'll draft DT Fairley & go after a FA QB but he could be wrong again. I'm predicting:

- We trade down for a 2nd round, 4th round, 7th round & conditional 3rd round next year & draft CB Peterson or WR Green

- Draft TE Kyle Rudolph from Notre Dame. He knows Jimmy & could be a big help

- Sign McNabb once he's released, just like we did with Shockey from the Saints

- Sign a reasonable DT & draft another later around 3rd-4th round

I'm also predicting 10-6 for next year, if there WILL be a season. Keep Shockey, Williams & the o-line healthy, make Smith happy, find a decent QB & we're gold

McNabb is NOT going to be released or traded. That is not going to happen. The Redskins would then be in a very similar situation as the Panthers. They would have no legit starting QB, looking at the same FA group we are (which is not very good, and nobody close to McNabb) and then have a #10 draft pick to get a QB who will not be ready to start right away.

Bottom line is McNabb will be on the Skins roster, unless somebody offers an insane trade (which wont happen). Not saying I wouldnt mind having him on our roster.

My prediction is this is not the first time Jerry Richardson lied and it won't be the last.

Lied about not signing any contracts or free agents until the new CBA was done...

Lied about going younger and seeing what talent there is in the youth of the team...

...and I'll bet ticket prices go up before the 2012 season....

    • Yep he made the comment " I dont know what they were doing out there at that point" in the press conference. Let's be real they all got paid but they also know his system suppresses there offensive potential.
    • 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  
    • 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.
