NFL Network: Bears' Briggs, 31st Pick for Skins' 6th Pick?

[djnemo65]

I still maintain though that the real issue here with us fans is what this symbolizes. This is just so typical of the type of deal the Skins do every year. If it wasn't for the past what might be saying hey, great player, pull the trigger, but this was supposed to be the year where we finally figured it out.

All you have to do is listen to Portis's year end rant on the Thompson show to see how the players feel about these kind of moves. If this happens I am getting drunk by myself and throwing things.

Marcus Washington plays OLB. Lance Briggs plays OLB (and is 4 years younger than Marcus). Marcus is coming off serious hip surgery. Could it be that his injury is far worse than anyone knows? How is his rehabilitation going? I'm surprised this hasn't really been mentioned in this thread (I think SmootSmack hinted at it). I'd really like to know what's up with Marcus.

The real reason I hate this trade has nothing to do with my confidence in Briggs' abilities. It's the fact that by swapping down to the 31st pick, we lose all ammunition to acquire more 1st day picks. I'd be all for this if we already had a 2nd and 3rd rounder.

Why on earth is Danny lobbing rumors out there now? Something isn't right with this. It don't want it to happen.

Hey, don't they have those places in Japan where you can smash an entire room to pieces? That's where I would go, if this happened.

Like it was said earlier: I don't think this is going to happen, and Rosenhaus is just using us for leverage.

Only if you're Godzilla.
