here's the thing, we have 2 TEs, pope probably won't be there when we pick, and we have MUCH more urgent needs than TE at this point (with only one first day pick). They didn't feel like paying royal 2$mill a year cause he kinda sucks, that doesn't mean they're drafting a TE (FA OL are 2-4mill a year, quality FA TEs max at 1.5-2mill unless they're gates or gonzo. moneywise, OL is the best choice, though CB also makes sense).

Of course they have much bigger needs, among them DT, OL, OLB or MLB. And I don't think he will fall either. I'm just speculating that if hes there, they might think about taking him.

Since the Skins already have Cooley (no matter how we use him) and spending money on a FA TE, I don't think the Skins need to spend our only !st day pick on a TE.. Now I also live in the ATL, and I'm a Gator. This guy killed us when we played him. Got the best of everyone really, not to mention was a big time target in the Bulldogs' pass offense. Still as we see the slight stagnant period of FA, and the fact that we need players to still fill positions right away, the best available player aspect goes out the window because their will be many players available for our slotted position needs(Not to mention no 1st rounder,so have to stick to plan). Now if Joe wants to go ahead and spend it on Pope, I'll shake my head a bit.. alot.. but hey, read the bottom line down there!!!!

Yeah, I have to say that after last year I will not immediately tear down anything Joe Gibbs does, anymore. Last year I went after him for starting Brunell and drafting Rogers. Ya know what? I was wrong. Joe was right. Big surprise, huh? That's why I'm the fan and he's the coach. While I do judge the moves, I give Gibbs/Williams/Saunders the chance to show me that they are right before I lay into them. They've earned the benefit of the doubt.
