The fit: The scouts liked his decision making in the pocket and his coaches and teammates praised his leadership. That combination of talents make him an ideal backup quarterback.

Washington Redskins And The NFL 2012 Season: No Excuses : Washington Redskins
The Washington Redskins know they’ve run out of excuses. This is why everyone will be watching the NFC East this season.
1. Art Monk, WR: The best receiver in Washington Redskins history. Monk was a physically imposing presence who delivered as much punishment as he took. Throughout his career, the quiet Monk shunned publicity. He made the Hall of Fame in 2008. 2. Mark Rypien, QB: A teammate of Monk’s and one of several cases where teammates are suing the league. Rypien was NFL MVP in 1991 and won a Super Bowl with the Redskins.
The Cowboys probably have the best QB/RB combo in Kyle Orton and Felix Jones… but after that they have nothing. The Eagles would actually have a receiving corps that might be better than a few teams’ starters, but their QB/RB combo is weak. The Giants would have the most inexperience with 3 rookies. And finally, the Redskins… The Redskins’ 2′s look very similar to their 1′s of a year ago. None of these teams would be able to block anybody. Note: I didn’t include a FB. Went with 3 WR’s instead, an used the 3, 4, and 5 for each team.
