Any news on Gardner?

Skinsfanatic · 04-22-2005, 09:42 AM

Has anyone heard anything? I can't believe that we are going to get through the draft and still have Garnder on our roster. Cutting him later for nothing in return would be flat out stupid.

Schneed10 · 04-22-2005, 09:45 AM

I haven't heard anything definitive, but I'm almost positive they'll end up trading him on draft day. They'll settle for a 4th or 5th rounder if they have to.

FRPLG · 04-22-2005, 09:48 AM

yeahy they'll take almost nothing rather than nothing.

I could see Gardner to Miami for our 9th and 25th in exchange for Jason Taylor and their 2nd. But maybe that is just wishful thinking.

Thats wishful alright.

Definitely wishful thinking. Why would Saban give up a proven stud pass rusher? The draft is about trying to find good players, but you never know if your picks will pan out. Doesn't make sense to give up proven guys like that. Trading Taylor wouldn't make sense for the Dolphins' salary cap either. This one is just a crazy rumor.

No.

I've only heard draft day trade! Gardner's contract demands are holding it up. The FO will try to obtain the best value.

BDBohnzie · 04-22-2005, 10:10 AM

why trade him at all? he's been fairly productive for a #2 receiver, and could definitely contribute this season. if we can't get what we think he's worth, then keep him and play him. he's in a contract year, and if he leaves next offseason, but does well this year, then it won't be a total waste.

i have a feeling he'll be part of a package to move up if we do...

TheMalcolmConnection · 04-22-2005, 10:21 AM

I wouldn't go so far as to say fairly productive. Maybe productive half the time and terrible the other half.

Someone should come up with a nickname about those stats.

Redskins_P · 04-22-2005, 10:31 AM

I'm sure he'll get dealt tomorrow. Hopefully we can pick up a 3rd rounder for him.......hell I'd even take a 4th rounder now since all we do now is give our picks away to Denver.

TheMalcolmConnection · 04-22-2005, 10:33 AM

Amen to that. Getting a third rounder would mean we bamboozled somebody.

Drift Reality · 04-22-2005, 10:35 AM

If it came down to it, I would trade Gardiner for a 7th round pick, and if we can't even get that, then I would just cut him after the June cuts.

That is how little I think of 50/50.

TheMalcolmConnection · 04-22-2005, 10:36 AM

Like I said long ago... a 7th and a six pack. Or just 3 6-packs.

Would that be Red, White, and Blue beer or USA (U Save Alot) beer brand?

Hahahaha... maybe some Country Club, King Cobra or PBR?

Dude, I'm NOT talking about the expensive stuff. You think we could get some Guiness or Labatt for Gardner? Come on, we have to be real here.

LOL
