Redskins Could Become a Suitor for Strahan?

Strahan was not a horrible player, but if he had played in Seattle or Green Bay, most people would not know who he is. He is largely a mythological creation of the New York Press. Mike Lupica probably had him on speed-dial. Pass.

Hmm, Ok. Leading active sacker in the NFL, and most sacks in a season wow that New Yrk Press knows how to creat.

Thank you. Dude had 22.5 sacks in 2001. He was definitely a stud. Not so much, anymore. I don't really see Gibbs getting on board with this -- no matter how much Danny wants him.

I think these writers just write stuff to hear themself think. I also heard buy someone at FOX who has talked to Strahan everyday the past two weeks said Strahan IS NOT looking for a new deal. He also said Strahan was disapointed that the Giants are making this look like all he wants is a new contract when in fact he just does not know if he wants to play or retire. Its hard to tell who is telling the truth.

LOL......................


You guys want him you can have him!The Skins are the best retirment plan the Giants have ,need I go and start naming players from NY to Wash?
Look he has'nt played a full season for us in 2 years and his wife took him to the cleaners ,he's coming off a serous foot injury and we don't know if he's healthy or not,and most of all do you really think the Giants will let him go inside the divison.....remember he's still under contract.

Well maybe the coaches know something we don't. I mean they have seen Strahan up close for the last three years. He's a guy in our division you would think the teams would know hgow he'd fit. Does sound like Bruce Smith 2.0 though.

WHAT?
The man has the all time single season sack record...he is the current leader in sacks for those still playing.
While I do think New York players get a lot of attention, Strahan, whether in Seattle or Green Bay would get the same amount.

That being said, we'd be dumb to sign him. He hasn't really been the same since he had 18.5 sacks in 03...in 04 he got injured (forgot what he injured) and has only had 18.5 sacks in 04, 05, and 06 COMBINED. (33 games).
He's old, and any player that has played his entire career (14 seasons not including this year) with one team and wants to leave at the last minute doesn't care about the team he is going to. He cares about himself.
No thanks.
