Can we do that? last week we had him starting at CB...

Lets be a little optimistic ya'll. We will see what he can do in pre-season for us. I'm glad he is a vet training Palko myself.

As a full time starter I agree. But he can string together some pretty games. at the same time he can look

. but I have seen him play alot too and have one thing to say in his defense. Washingtons' WRs have a history of been less than professional. Quiters is the first word that comes to mind.

Better than Martin. Hopefully Palko beats him out and is the 2nd, but probably not this year.

I guess that makes two of us, winmill. I've been vacationing for the last two weeks and when I saw this I was pretty happy. One more need for the team taken care of and from a guy with with playoff experience. He is a bit aged but I think that this is a great pickup and would be serviceable should Brees go down.

I think that it's safe to say that most of us here want Palko to be the next great Payton project that turns out to be a good quarterback in the future (for the Saints of course). But if Palko needs a year or two, I'm fine with Brunell as a fill in number 2.

I do hope that Payton finds another player to add and drop though out the season because I believe that Palko can be the same kind of player that Romo has turned out to be. Although I believe that Romo is overrated, he is a good QB.
