With all the support Saunders has on offense it's almost tempting to let him start fresh with Campbell at QB. I know it's not going to happen, but it's got to be tempting...

lol, we could use Campbell at QB...
As long as Gibbs promises the starting job to Brunell it's going to be Campbell time.

Like I said, Saunders was brilliant at using Dante Hall even though he only played WR occasionally. Now that he has a guy in Randle El who has similar skills to Hall but is much more durable and can play every down that could be really scary. Oh yeah, and what about Santana Moss!?

Heck, for $30M, I want to be a Redskin too! Half the NFL wants to play for Dan the Open Wallet Man.

If everyone is seeing the playing field and contributing in some way, winning and feeling like a part of a winning organization will overcome the "i need the ball more" stuff. I'm pretty sure none of these guys have the ego of TO. They'll enjoy the potential "rings" more.

Will that require different receiver sets? Does that create different needs?
I have to catch a plane. So, I will try to raise some points:
Al Saunders is the master of the three-receiver set. He did a wonderful job at it in St Louis. (Yes, the St Louis offense that took off from where the Redskins offense left off a decade before).
Al Saunders will work magic with an ultra-agressive pass-oriented offense with a strong rush Faulk-based threat, Ooops! Sorry. Portis-based threat to balance the passing game.
I am convinced this is a system being put in place for Campbell sometime this season. I am very happy with these picks and I am convimced he may have been involved in the selection process with Joe and our other coaches.
Have to fly! See ya.
