As quarterback Jason Campbell not to return with the Washington Redskins as a free agent, the team’s new coach Mike Shanahan has made picking a top-flight quarterback the most important plan for 2010 season. If possible, the Redskins will begin their rebuilding process with a franchise quarterback.
According to reports, Shanahan plans to use the fourth overall draft pick to draft Oklahoma’s Sam Bradford or Notre Dame’s Jimmy Clausen in the first round, although there are also needs to overhaul the offensive line. Well, the Redskins have to trust the former Broncos coach and general manager who has proved adept at finding good lineman throughout the draft.
Working with new GM Bruce Allen, Shanahan has kept his plans closed but a lot of people believe that he will help the Redskins catch up with the Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants by firstly getting a quarterback like Tony Romo, Donovan McNabb and Eli Manning to put on Redskins jersey.

Redskins CB Hall plans to file complaint against old team Falcons
The Washington Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall said that he planned to file a complaint with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell against the Atlanta Falcons coach and assistant.
Hall said that Falcons Coach Mike Smith cursed at him and Falcons director of athletic performance Jeff Fish and others “put their hands on me” during a sideline melee Sunday. The original cause was Hall’s teammate LaRon Landry’s hit on Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan. Hall tried to pull Landry away from the Falcons’ sideline but was surrounded by Falcons players and staff members along with Landry.
Some other Redskins players also joined in the melee, but Hall became the focus because he was formerly a player wearing the Falcons jersey. He had talked all week of being bitter at the way he was treated when traded after playing in Atlanta for four years and made the Pro Bowl twice.
Hall said the tried to get away from Fish and others but Smith came over to him and talked expletive to him. He would take his complaints to the league.

Redskins plan to take off play-calling duties from Coach Zorn
After Sunday’s 14-6 loss to the previously winless Kansas City Chiefs, the front office of the Washington Redskins finally made their decision to take off play-calling duties from head coach Jim Zorn.
According to Redskins spokesman Zack Bolno, front office chief Vinny Cerrato and Zorn discussed the change during a 1-on-1 meeting after Sunday’s loss and Cerrato told Zorn he believes the coach had too many responsibilities and someone else should run the offense during games. A new play caller would be announced on Monday.
The Redskins (2-4) are averaging 13.2 points this season and Zorn seemed to be irritated in his postgame news conference. He refused to answer questions on whether he is concerned about his future.
