The Redskins just drafted Hawaii quarterback Colt Brennan, who set 21 NCAA passing records in three years for the Rainbows after previous stops at Saddleback CC and Colorado. Brennan is supposed to be sidelined two-three months following hip surgery on April 7, meaning he'll miss all of OTAs and minicamp. He sustained the injury in the Senior Bowl but still worked out at the combine in February.

Not the worst possible pick. Who knows, he had to be doing something right to set 21 records. He could end up being our Brady.

It's the first pick that makes me smile.
Hopefully, he'll get further along than last year's project/QB Jordon Palmer.
Why no D-Linemen were taken is still a mystery to me, but hopefully, there's some sort of method to the madness.

The skins now have lots of new fans from Hawaii. We love Colt Brennan. His stats don't lie. He's a gamer you'll see.

Great pick Washington! Also, I think he set 31 NCAA records.

I THINK THE SKINS DONE AN EXCELLENT JOB THIS YEAR IN THE DRAFT. THEY HAD THE #8 DEFENCE IN THE LEAGUE LAST YEAR, SO REALLY THERE IS NO BIG WORRY THERE. THE BIG RECIEVERS WILL GREATLY HELP OUT J CAMPBELLS BIG ARM, A+ THIS YEAR. COLT WILL BE GREAT TOO.,

I'm a UH grad and Warrior/Brennan fan so I'm glad to see Brennan going to the team I have been a loyal fan of since the early 70's when I was just a kid. I believe Brennan has a bright future in the NFL and will surprise a lot of Redskins personnel and fans with his work ethic, football/leadership skills, character, and competitive attitude. Great selection Redskins and good luck Colt!
