Understatement of the year:

Redskins give tight end Cooley six-year contract extension

I think we should have waited a little while for it, but I'm happy he'll be here for a while.

Yes.

This is good news.

I know I can be a real pessimist but the Betts and Cooley signings - and their prudence this year are real indications that the front office is moving in the right direction.

That is great news. And it sounds like it is a cap friendly contract too. This guy is a team player, others could stand to take note of this. Good job front office on this one.

Re: Chris Cooley signs contract extension!!

I'm late to the party on this one because I've been moving/partying for my mom's b-day for the past few days but man am I happy!!!!

Looks like I might have to go get that white #47 jersey soon, especially since I'm repping the Skins in Baltimore now.

Re: Chris Cooley signs contract extension!!

Brunell's cap figure for this season is really not an issue. He agreed to have his hit reduced this past offseason.

Yeah but he said it straight to his face, this wasn't a case of Parcells working the media and trying to distract other teams. He told Cooley straight out that he didn't think he could play in the NFL.

Take it for what it is. The evidence strongly suggests that Parcells was not interested in Cooley. To assume anything else is just pure unfounded speculation.

Not true. Cowboys were going to draft him if Skins did not. That is 100% fact.

2004 NFL Draft:

Redskins shock all to move up to # 18 in the 3rd round and 81st overall and take Chris Cooley.

Dallas coaches are very upset by this because they were slotted to draft Cooley at # 20 in that round and 83rd overall.

I have read this many times and think its worth talking about. Parcells telling a player he can't play isn't enough. Why bother visiting him and insulting a guy in person if he's of no interest.
