I think this would be a great move. Cooley is in great shape and adds a lot on the field and off.

Sure. He came into camp in great shape and when he's healthy he's very productive. Also a great guy in the lockeroom. Dude bleeds Burgundy and Gold.

Re: Chris Cooley Released
 

If Cooley comes back, who do you think we cut?
I am thinking they cut someone to move to the practice squad like, Jordan Bernstein, Crezdon Butler, Aldrick Robinson, or LeRibeus, Logan Paulsen,
Though I am not sure if they are all practice squad eligible.

Frankly,
I am thinking Paulsen if PS eligible since he is average or Bernstein since 5 safeties is crazy, we need 5 CBs, and I doubt they risk a 3rd round pick even if he's not that great right now. I don't think they risk our WRs.

I would much rather have Cooley than Paulsen or Bernstein...wouldn't you?
Hopefully they sign him for backup compensation + reefer insurance premium.

[QUOTE] Cooley said when reached early Friday afternoon that he was unaware a meeting with the Redskins had been set for next week,but he would be receptive to discussing a possible return with the team. “I don’t know,” Cooley said. “I can’t guarantee what will happen. But this is where I want to live and play,so I’d definitely be open to talk.” [/QUOTE]

He didn't come to camp healthy. He was slow and his knees were done, if you ask me they still are to be honest. Sure, they might feel good right now, but after going full speed for a couple of games, taking hits, they're going to fall apart as they have the last couple of seasons.

I love the dude, he is a great lockerrom guy and he does bleed Burgundy and Gold, but there's a time we have to say the guy is done as a Redskin. Bring him back as a coach, sure, no biggie, but right now there's more important needs for the team than to have a backup TE/FB.

I do agree we have other areas that currently appear to be in more need than TE/FB. However, Darrel Young has not been healthy, and I'm not quite convinced that the Niles Paul at TE experiment is going to work, so it's quite possible that the 'skins will need Cooley back at either the FB or TE position. I also believe that if Chris Cooley is done, then the 'skins front office and coaching staff wouldn't even entertain the idea of Cooley coming back in any shape or form, especially since his roster spot would mean having to let someone else go.

Re: Chris Cooley Released
 

I'm not sure what kind of on-field impact he has left in him, but if they offered him a job in the Redskins organization I would be fine with that.

Re: Chris Cooley Released
 

If anything, if Cooley could come in and just be a solid blocker for RGIII and company, that would mean more to me than him coming in and being an offensive weapon.
