Chainging My Name To Me-John

How many of you fellow Redskin fans were befuddled by the Redskins 1st round pick last Saturday? Was it just me? Don't we already have a stud safety (supposedly)in Sean Taylor? Didn't we need help on the D-line more that another hard-hitting, flashy, fast and top flight safety? Now, I'm no expert (again, a surprise to all of you) but all the ESPN analysts said LaRon Landry would allow Sean Taylor to be the beast he should be and that the two together will bring out the best in both, that they would compliment each other. They apparently will bring the best out each other, which means no more cops in Taylor's future, right? I guess we will see.

As for the offensive side of the ball, the Skins still need help on the O-line. They still have a question mark in how good Jason Campbell can be. Portis was hurt last year, Santana Moss needs help, Brandon Loyd is a bust and David Patten should have been released two years ago. Is there anyone in the free agent pool that could help the Skin's at receiver considering they didn't have the picks available to draft a quality receiver? Anyone at all?

I can't believe I'm even going to suggest this... this goes against everything I believe in and stand for... but Me-Shawn is available. After the Skins failed to trade for Randy Moss--which would have been a huge upgrade to their receiving corps--why not make a run at Me-Shawn? As much as I can't stand the guy, he is better than Randle El and Darnarien McCants. I know this will just be another contradiction on my growing list of contradictions, but so what?! The Skins are not good. Me-Shawn would definitely bring attitude to DC. It couldn't hurt, could it? His agent says he has lots of offers and will play next year, somewhere somehow. Could a team with burgundy and gold colors be one of his suitors? Would the Fans welcome him? It wouldn't be like the Deion Sanders signing, could it? Me-Shawn would probably be pretty affordable. And Joe Gibbs has always done well with eccentric and egotistical players (ala, John Riggins, Gary Clark, Dexter Manley and Mark May).

I am actively lobbying for Keyshawn Johnson to be a Redskin. God help us all.
