And I have no idea why you're dragging other teams' TEs into this discussion. I'm very comfortable with your disagreeing with every thing I said. You're entitled to your opinion -- but I still think you're wrong.
Cooley's done. I hope he goes out in a blaze of glory against the Cowboys, but he will not be on an NFL roster in 2013.
And I love Chris Cooley the Redskin.

This post is factually dull and pure (unsubstantiated) conjecture. Cooley had his best year in 2010.
Chris Cooley, TE for the Washington Redskins at NFL.com
He's also relatively young considering many TE's play well into their 30's in the NFL.
And again, most importantly, he looks quicker than I ever remember him. If you watch the last few games he's coming off the LOS just as quickly as Garcon (who he lines up near to) or any other WR with the exception of Tana who's our quickest guy. And Cooley's football IQ, the ability to find space/gaps in coverage is always there. It's not like he's sustained a head injury.
It's very obvious Mike and/or Kyle or choosing to keep him out of the passing game. Big kudos to Chris for giving it 100% out there and blocking well.
