Redskins, Jaguars interested in Ogunleye

Wow, Boston would most certainly be a #2 reciever, he is big, strong, fast, and has great hands. Like i said, if he didnt get suspended last year he could have broken 1,000 yards with 2 incinsistent QB's. Boston has been an elite reciever, and if it wasnt for an injury the year before last, and the issues last season, hed still be there. Do not count him out

all this Boston talk leading to the notion that Gardner COULD be something Miami could maybe use. its about getting Ogunleye. keep your eyes on the prize Snyder. Eagles, Giants, they all have a pass rush..

You are just totally ignoring the actual performance of the past 2 years and keying on his 2001 performance. Do some reading, or just check my earlier post. The guy was a dismal disappointment to both of his previous employers. Those "issues" you mention are what can make or break any receiver. Remember Andre Rison? Boston has taken himself that same direction.

I agree.
As talented as Boston is. I would rather have Gardner. The Redskins offered their first round pick for next year already. So, I would forget about adding Gardner into the equation. Eventhough Miami declined the offer, as time goes by they will have no choice but to give him up. Don't be surprised if the Redskins do get him straight up for the 1st round pick.

Then we will hear about some cuts to clear cap space. Possibly Wynn or Upshaw, depending on who had performed better in the minicamps or training camp.

hogskin, obviously u did not see the part aboutme saying that boston would have been a 1,000 yard reciever last season had he not been suspended (70 catches 880 yards while missing 2 games). also, the year before that, he was putting up very good numbers for the games he acutally played (32 catches 512 yards in 8 games), maybe you should do the research before you criticise my comments, when they are legitimate. Look up the facts, and quit giving me ur bs, its getting old.

well, while this now seems completly off topic, it is the name of the thread so im going to post it here. It appears we offered our first round pick for him. Of course Gibbs is saying we arent interested becaues they arent going to give him up, and technically the Fins havent put him on the trade block yet. However, they may be more intereseted in trading him as the realization that he will set out becomes more real, as the season approaches.

If we dont sign him until, lets says August, how much of a disadvantage do you think he will be at, having to learn a new system in only a few weeks?

I don't what the difference is between Greg Williams scheme and the one that Dolphins are running. It's going to be tough for him to adjust, but if this guy really wants to play here and is dedicated then it shouldn't be much of a problem. I haven't heard much about his work ethic or his football smarts. Everything I've heard is all based on his talent.


SkinsnCanes you bring up a good point......but we'll just have to wait and see.

anyone know if hes still working out and keepign in shape even though he hasnt gone to any of their camps? If he hasnt worked out all offseason because he normally did it with the team then it would really hurt us for a while. He would have to get back into footbal shape.

Obviously, I DID read your post. That is what I specifically replied to, but you apparently were unable to understand the facts. You were talking about Woulda-Coulda-Shoulda - that doesn't cut it in the big leagues, kiddo. Performance does. Did you bother to read my reference to "issues" and Rison? That is the whole point. The guy is a head case. As long as he is a head case, he will be no good to anyone, and will continue to move from team-to-team until he has nowhere to go. You are way too young to remember Joe Don Looney. He was ALSO a "beast", massively strong and talented. The reason you probably have heard nothing about him was exactly what I have been talking about. He was a head case, and wore out his welcome everywhere in the NFL. Boston has done exactly that with 2 teams and is on his third. According to some reports, some of the same crap is starting again. We'll just have to wait and see if he is ready to grow up and act like a PRO.

As far as facts, that is what I deal in, not in emotion, which seems to be what is driving you.

Your throwback mentality to the game is nice, but I think if you look at the "facts" (as you are apparently deeply wedded to), you would see that there are many head cases in the NFL year in and year out who are productive despite their lack of mental toughness. Sure, they're not Hall of Famers, but I think Joe Horn and Terrell Owens, two of the biggest headcases in the game, had very productive seasons last year. Boston needs a good situation to blossom (QB/offensive system), and while I don't think he has that in Miami, he could certainly be effective on any numbers of teams barring injury. Your point specifically with respect to head cases lacks merit, and your reliance on demeaning phrases such as "kiddo" and several references to the previous poster's age do not necessarily make you any more correct. They make you seem angry, condescending, and desperate. Your post seems more driven by emotion than any of the others I have read.
