Trade Fred Smoot for Adam Archuleta?
 
Of course I'm dreaming, don't give me a hard time.

But you never know if someone in the Redskins front office reads
TheWarpath.net.

Please discuss....


Oh yeah, Merry Christmas!

I would say Minnesota is not that stupid, but the Hershel Walker fiasco is still in my mind.

Re: Smoot for Archuletta?
 
Oh, and I forgot to say...the reason we let Smoot go to Minnesota is because they over paid for him. Are the Skins willing to say they made a mistake in not signing him to a huge contract and take him back?

You couldn't get a broken candy cane for Archuletta....

Never say never.

And as far as contracts go, the Skins could always agree to eat some of his contract to make the deal more attractive.

I dunno, I recall Smoot as a decent cover corner. Just cause he's no bonafide #1, doesn't mean he can't be an exceptional #2.

Bailey and Smoot were the best CB tandem in the league.

Whooaa...I don't know about that! Smoot wasn't as good as Champ Bailey, but Smoot could cover (better than what our secondary has been doing this year!) He also was a very good tackler. It couldn't hurt us by taking Freddy back!

This Leon Hall kid from Michigan sounds like a heck of a CB, maybe Gibbs and the boys might take him in the draft. Hopefully they can also sign someone like Nate Clements as well. As much as I like Shawn Springs, he's just is a little too fragile to really count on now. Hopefully a good Defensive Lineman can be added as well. As far as Smoot for Archuletta, well, they both suck, so who cares? Archuletta was just a terrible signing and hopefully the Skins can cut their losses with him in the offseason in some form.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I do recall Smoot's mouth writing checks his play couldn't cash! Maybe if he would just shut the hell up and play, I would feel differently.

Smoot was not that bad of a CB. I think that there are some better ones out there but with the 5 yard chuck rule and with the WR position being the one that has the best athletes I think that the CB has the hardest job of anyone on the field. Finding a reliable CB is almost imposibble today that is why we need safeties that can actually handle receivers as well as conerbacks can.


I do not think that AA will be that bad of an aquisition after all is said and done. He certainly has the skills maybe a good off season will help him out...at least let's hope so.

Let's just end the silly trade Archuleta talk. Nobody and I repeat Nobody is going to trade for him, so let's just stop. Please.

Smooty flakes broke his jaw in a car accident. That sounds fun.
