I doubt that McNabb is available for any practice or any games - I think that as soon as we can get something for him, he will be traded
there are a few franchises that will want him and we will trade him

If it drags into pre-season then the value of McNabb goes up with each QB injury and QB disappointment.

I bet McNabb is not allowed to play in any pre-season games for the Redskins.


The ONLY way that McNabb plays (OR practices) for the Redskins is if this mess dictates that we have to keep him - hard to imagine

McNabb is not going to be here

But you did imagine it. You brought it up.

If Mike is unable to trade McNabb by July - that will make for an interesting QB deal here at training camp
I think it might be kind of fun to see if McNabb wants to show that he can play QB here OR anywhere


McNabb is not going to be here.

I agree with you here, but you did raise interesting food for thought.

This mess that the NFL is in right now is very hurtful to a lot of franchises that cannot 'move' players as they are used to

this BS could mean that we are in a VERY awkward situation in July and August

everything I have heard recently points to the quickest resolution coming in months, not weeks - and that's given that the decisions and appeals happen in a reasonable time :shock:
