I don't understand the trade for Thrash. Somebody's gotta go now, right? We can't carry 6 decent WR's when we have other glaring needs on the team. Coles, Jacobs, McCants, Russell and Thrash. Gardener Has to be the odd man out. There's a lot of teams out there who could use a solid #2, which is exactly what Gardener is going to be. Maybe Gibbs saw this as a way to put Jacobs into the mix (since he's been impressed with him so far) and get a possibly 3rd round draft pick this year for Gardener. Then for depth, giving away a 6th for Thrash who, while not spectacular, is a proven commodity and a great character guy? My head's spinning...
