    Default Looks like Jeff Fisher beats Yince Young in Tenn......possible trade partners for more than Al? NOTHING ABOUT TRADING FOR VINCE YOUNG!

    from ESPN980's twitter.

    ESPN 980
    Looks like we know who won the power struggle with the Titans. RT: @JasonLaCanfora Titans in process of releasing statement that they're parting ways with Vince Young. Which essentially means Jeff Fisher is there in 2011



    Fisher isn't looking to rebuild, he needs a Vet QB for his team. If he's staying and Vince is going, why not try to package McNabb, Albert and hell...even Andre Carter for their 4-3 Defense?

    I have no idea what we would get, but I think it would be win/win for both teams and McNabb. He goes to a stable situation with a good running game and established system in place. Titans get that Vet QB Fisher would want, Albert back, and Andre who could go back to DE. Redskins hopefully get draft picks and everybody moves on.

    ummmm, very interesting. I would like to know what they are willing to do here.

    I can't remember the last time I posted a "what if?" thread in the Stadium. But this just almost makes TOO much sense for everybody involved.

    One of the more reasonable 'what if' scenarios I've seen on ES

    Exactly. Much more realistic than signing Peyton Manning

    Id be happy with this

    Haynesworth and McNabb for a 3rd rounder.

    Very realistic IMO. I mean, we already know Fisher wants Al back, and he was about the only coach willing to take a chance on Randy Moss and he did the same for Kerry Collins. I'm sure if he indeed stays in Tenn., Bruce will be looking into this...

    What do you guys think he'd give for a McNabb/Haynesworth (and potentially) Carter/Cooley type of package?

    Geez, Young is due $8.5 mil in 2011, that includes a signing bonus of $4.25 mil on 3/10. He's a FA in 2012. Makes more economical sense to keep the coach versus the QB.

    I think I remember them only offering up a 4th for AH but more trying to stir the media attention on the matter. I believe we were sticking to a 3rd or no go for him alone.

    I believe in the Redskins, therefore I'm the enemy.

    I would take Young in a heartbeat especially if Shanny gets this running game going he puts alot of pressure on defenses on 3rd down they have to run zone or he will take off for a easy 1st down.. He also has came along way as a passer.. And i think we could still draft a young rookie QB to groom if VY does'nt turn into what we hope..

    They may just outright cut him..

    Kinda surprised, but the right move for Tennessee. Good for Fisher.

    That would be a deal in favor of the Titans which is good for me but I'm thinking the Skins could get a 3rd and 4th, or a 3rd and 5th. That gives McNabb a strong running game he needs as well as a good defense. However the Titans could look to go younger at the QB spot and look at what Philly my want to do with Kolb or even look at Alex Smith which won't cost them anything.

    And there is no way I would want Young on this team.

    The rumors I heard were that we were insisting on a 2nd. Always wondered if one side ever offered to compromise at a 3rd.

    I jst DO NOT understand the 'get rid of Cooley' sentiments. We are trying to build a team, we do not have the luxury of expelling talent.

    Letting Andre Carter go works because he is suited for a 4-3 - proven on 2 teams, ESPECIALLY if he goes in a package w/ Haynesworth - SHEESH! But getting rid of Cooley?? Really?
    RLTW!

    Shanahan may not want another QB that doesn't buy 100% into his program ala Mcnabb so I don't see him wanting VY who is definitely a head case

    I guess Bud Adams realized that a good head coach is more valuable than an inconsistent QB with emotional problems.
