Re: Redskins: Trade Deadline Buyers or Sellers?
The idea of moving Garcon is silly -- he comes ready to go week in and week out, great with YAC, etc. I think he's one of the best FA additions in recent years, and I don't know why we'd revisit that.
We are deep at WR and so I would rather they try to move someone like Aldrick Robinson. He's basically a burner, but we now have DJax and so Robinson seems expendable. I'd hate to see Moss go as he's one of my favorites, but with Hankerson coming back soon, I imagine that he'll go back to inactive. Gruden has said good things about his leadership, so my guess is that he's more likely to stay than Robinson.
I also think the idea of moving Alfmo is a bad one. You don't move a guy who is #2 in the league in rushing the last two years and even though is having a down year is still on pace for over 1000 yards (although just barely). I don't think we have a proven every down back on the roster other than Alfmo, and you simply have to have one of those.
And while I'd love to see us pick up some help for this season (and we need it at OLB, O line, and safety), I have real doubts as to whether any quality player would be able to come in now and produce for us.
