Report: Skins 'very interested' in Matt Flynn

Citing sources inside the organization, ESPN 980 Washington's Chris Russell reports the Redskins are "very interested" in free agent QB Matt Flynn.
ESPN's Mel Kiper told reporters earlier in the day that "grapevine" talk suggested the Redskins didn't have a high opinion of Flynn. Russell knows "for sure," though, that coach Mike Shanahan and OC Kyle Shanahan had a "detailed conversation" two weeks ago on Flynn's six-touchdown, 480-yard performance against the Lions in the regular season finale. Whereas Charley Casserly suggested Flynn wouldn't be a good fit for the Redskins offense, one team source tells Russell the two systems are "almost the same."

After seeing him in just one game? He reminds me of Matt Cassell. I bet you liked him as well.

Nah. Never liked Matt Cassel. Gotta hunch about Flynn though.

Cassel has a noodle arm compared to Flynn.

Talking about him is just due dilligence. Doesn't neccessarily indicate a strong interest.

I do, however, think that he is the likely candidate to end up in Washington. Shannahan is already 2 years in to his regime, and it's not going well. I think he knows he doesn't have time to bring a rookie QB.

Instead, I think he's convinced that he's a QB away from contending for the division - which is accurate.

Remember, Matt Flynn also turned in a strong performance against New England late last year, and Green Bay has a history of pumping out decent reserve quarterbacks.
