NFL Network: Bears' Briggs, 31st Pick for Skins' 6th Pick?

I vote to ban the guy who voted for "love this trade" in the poll. Not that I have any clout, but can I get a second on that one?

ESPN.com - NFL - Agent: Bears' Briggs could go to Redskins in trade (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2814052)

"But it's a win-win situation," Rosenhaus said. "Chicago only wants to sign Lance to a one-year contract anyway. If they made the trade, they would move up 25 spots in the first round and be able to choose one of the premier players in the draft. And Lance, obviously, would get the long-term deal he wants [from the Redskins]. It's a good resolution for everyone."

he doesnt mention the skins as part of the winners... We deserve more for the 6th pick that a player and the 31st...briggs isnt goign to play for them, they have no leverage...we should give them both our sixth picks and say you got a good deal on adam, heres your sixth pick back, and ours

Ok, so let's step back and look at this trade. I don't have a problem with getting Briggs, and drop from #6 to #31 may not be a total disaster if someone is there at D-Line (I know they have shown interest in Quentin Moses, but #31 may be a little high for him)

But a.) we need more picks and b.) are we committed to Rocky or not?

But does anyone else find it weird that Snyder would even comment at all?

Yes, if he did comment it seems that he wouldn't really be interested.

If this happens I am getting drunk by myself and throwing things.

Hey, don't they have those places in Japan where you can smash an entire room to pieces? That's where I would go, if this happened.

Like it was said earlier: I don't think this is going to happen, and Rosenhaus is just using us for leverage.

This would be a typical ridiculous move for the front office admitting their mistake last year on Rocky McIntosh and essentially wasting 2 picks on a player who won't see the field without an injury to someone else. I'm so disgusted at our decision makers it's painful.

The part that doesn't make sense is this. Denver offers thier probowl linebacker plus thier 1st, 2nd, 3rd picks. We say no. Instead we want another teams linebacker and a later 1st with no 2nd or 3rd.

Something does not sound right.

I think Briggs is beast. I like the move. It gives us a TRUE playmaker to put along side of Washington. A leader with washington. The only thing that stinks is Rocky being squashed back down the depth chart. Maybe this is one of those moves the FO made that didn't work out. Maybe Rocky isn't the guy? I personally like the deal, but I would hope to get another pick, maybe a 3rd. I doubt we could take Briggs, 31st overall and a 2nd for the 6th. Briggs is one of the best LB in the league, just hitting his prime at 26. we would be fortunate to get a 3rd.

Something does not sound right.Good point. Plus, with Denver we would have gotten the 21st pick as opposed to the 31st.
Maybe the Skins are confirming this rumor to put some pressure on Denver to get this deal done.

I clicked the wrong button and said I love it, however, don't mistake stupidity for passion. I DO NOT WANT THIS AT ALL.

Can it please just be draft day and we hear the names Branch, Okoye, Adams, Anderson, or Carriker? That's ALL I want to hear.

I hope and pray this is Rosenhaus using the Skins' for leverage. Snyder and the FO may be doing Rosenhaus a "favor" to help him get Briggs out of Chi-town, but if we do this deal as reported, I will attend the Draft Day party at Fed-Ex....and then jump from the top of the stadium.
