i am so torn on what i want them to do. part of me says trade a bunch of picks for #2 and take RG3. but that is so risky and it seems like our drafting is getting better so maybe keep our picks and take a QB in round 2.

only way i sign Manning is if it is an incentive driven deal.

    We all love Manning, but I don't want to see anymore over-the-hill, past-their-prime veterans being signed to the Skins this year. I appreciate the way that Shanahan has started building a football program with youth, athleticism and potential. It was a shame that we let Campbell go when he still had a lot of football left in him. And Grossman IS NOT the answer. I'm pretty confident we can get a big time QB at our current draft position or hold off until the second or third round and pickup someone who's less of a household name (just like the Bengals did last year).

    .The biggest change I want to see is Orakpo and Kerrigan playing their natural positions at DE. These guys should be DL bookends for the next 10+ years, not trying to develop their zone coverage skills.......

    I couldn't agree more. Campbell, unfortunately, was a scapegoat. I was sad to see him go, I thought he had a lot of potential. I don't think bringing in a big name for qb is the answer. I would much rather see us draft someone who we can mold to fit our team and what we need.

    The one thing that we definitely need is offensive playmakers. The free agent wide receivers that are available this year like Desean Jackson and Vincent Jackson would be a great addition to the team and a nice luxury for a young QB. Hopefully, Shanny isn't too quiet in free agency this year because there's some serious talent available this time around.....

    agreed. we absolutely need to get some receivers to throw to.

    There's a lot of high caliber No. 1 receivers available this year. Between Garcon, Reggie Wayne, Colston, D-Jackson and V-Jackson, the Skins should be able to pick up somebody that make plays down the field. The only thing is, will the Shanahans and Bruce Allen want to go after any big name-big talent stars. And I just heard that Kyle Orton may be available. If they brought in Orton and a legit #1 receiver in free agency, they could try to focus on the offensive line and secondary in the draft......

    it looks like Orton is a free agent. Matt Cassel is the guy in KC so the Skins might be a good fit for him.
