naptownskinsfan Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Quote But Washington needs to be in the QB market one way or the other this offseason, and it can't be sure who the guy is going to be at this point. Sure sounds like we should be last over a team that will actually have some cap space to make a decent addition. I'm already prepared with the Orioles for a rebuilding year, so what's adding another team to the mix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except said team (Jacksonville) is in relatively good position for taking a QB in the draft, while Washington is somewhat out of position. Also, it's been readily apparent that the Jaguars have needed a replacement QB for the past three years. Why they haven't done anything about it, I don't know.

Also, adding in the sentence preceding this one is hilarious: Quote If Smith is healthy, this ranking goes way up. bwahahahahahahahahahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavar703 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Why do people keep saying “if Smith is healthy”? He’s never playing again. You know how you can tell he’s never playing again...because we’ve literally heard nothing about him. He’s our top QB, he’s being paid $90M and there isn’t a peep. His career is finished and the Redskins can’t come out and say it because of how bad this is going to look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His career is finished and the Redskins can’t come out and say it because of how bad this is going to look. Because they don't want to see an apparently decent guy go out like that. Because they think that that a catastrophic injury like that only takes a few months to recover from. Because they don't understand how dysfunctional the Redskins are and that Smith has zero incentive to try to come back while collecting millions of dollars.

naptownskinsfan Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 For me, it would be #1. Smith is a great guy, and I was at the game when it happened. Numerous Texan players, nearly half of the team, met him as he was being put on the cart to send him off. It wasn't a couple guys following JJ Watt, literally the entire team made it onto the field. He's one of the best guys in the NFL. If people think two, you are thinking that, even though this is the same injury that Theismann had, modern medicine will allow him to heal better/quicker and play again. That's not going to be the case. I honestly think that if Smith's doctors clear him to try, he will attempt a comeback. I do not believe he will be cleared however.

Because they got a good stretch run from Bortles and bought the hype last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the Jacksonville front office is also bad at differentiating trends from outliers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be curious if he tries to get cleared by doctors if the Redskins don't cut him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing the character that Smith has, I think he's going to try, if nothing else but to prove it to himself that he can rehab himself back into game shape, but I can't realistically see an older QB getting back under center after that kind of injury. The yips are going to be stronger than ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turtle28 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 We gotta be #1 now, right? Right? Lol 😆 Damn, #11 to 32 in one season! Great job Bruce & Jay! Ugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle28 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 I don't think Smith will play again but he's definitely better than Colt. At worst we have a top 20 QB situation if Smith comes back. There's more to QB play than just yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can keep clinging to that if you want but there’s no way Smith was ever playing like a top 20 QB last year. And if he comes back, which is never going to happen, he’s not going to be better considering the injury and the recovery involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
