Profootballtalk has been hearing rumors – and they emphasize rumors – that the Redskins are trying to move Jason Campbell. The QB was off to a very, very efficient start last year, but that faded just as the team did in 2008. He is signed through 2009 and we haven’t heard much in the way of the ‘Skins wanting to re-up him.

This dovetails with talk that the Redskins are trying to acquire Jay Cutler. If they were to do that, Campbell would certainly be expendable. But, with only four draft picks in this year’s draft, the Redskins don’t have a ton of ammunition. We saw one report that said the Broncos would want two firsts and a second for Cutler. There are also rumors that the Broncos don’t just want picks, they want a QB to replace him. That’s why the Cleveland Browns keep coming up as a third partner as they have two guys who either can or can’t play at the NFL level. Derek Anderson was good for one year, and Brady Quinn had a bunch of hype coming into the league. Nobody knows dick about either one of them.

So anyway, we digress. PFT emphasizes that these are just rumors and they are trying to nail down more proof, but it wouldn’t surprise us one bit if the Redskins were interested in acquiring Cutler and dumping Campbell. High-end franchise QB’s that teams desperately want to keep don’t enter the final year in their contract without an extension.
