Wtf Dan.........this Is A Joke Right?

another "scenario" freakout thread

[TheMalcolmConnection]

In the spirit of your other thread, I wonder if we could stand on Friday to not make a SINGLE comment about any draftee whatsoever.

[artmonkforhallofamein07]

I like this move and if we can only manage to give up a first round pick next year to get a top pro-bowl caliber wide reciever, who is a big physicaql guy I say do it. This guy could be the next Keyshawn or TO WITHOUT THE ATTITUDE. Calvin is a good guy with a great head on hhis shoulders. We can fix the rest of the team with next years Draft after round one. I'm sorry guys but I don't share your opinion. I like it. Do it. Bring in a potential HOF. We mortgaged the future to get Jason and he will work out. SO let's get him a big Wide out and dump Lloyd. HAIL!!!

All the draft talk gets old, but if we didn't talk about it, everybody would go to ES.

Draft rumors are like roadkill, you want to look away, but you just can't.

Red this post then the article again everyone is taking Snyders comments out of context.

hey, when i pressed the link to read the whole article, it took me somewhere else, i think to the front page of the washingtonpost. Can anyone copy and paste the whole article on to this thread.

[ingibbswetrust]

yeah, i can't pull up at work. could somebody please paste onto forum. Thx.

I've got a bad feeling that the Skins are about to blow this draft and their future. The defensive line has been a problem since Snyder has been the owner. I don't care if the Skins move up in the draft, move down or even stay put, but they better draft a defensive lineman. I would prefer Amobi Okoye, but with all these horrible rumors, any of the top five defensive lineman would be ok with me. If they pick up a player in a position they don't need, I'll be sick.

I'm not getting carried away by talk of CJ, but I know that JLC would not report that about Springs if he didn't have a source confirm it.

I hate to say it,but Springs is likely gone, think about it:
1) Smoot said he wouldn't be "anybody's bench warmer" in Minn.
2) Macklin agreed to sign for less than he could've elsewhere, but still only has a 1 yr. deal.

This says to me that our corners will be Rogers, Smoot & Macklin in that order.

Are you serious? Do you think Detroit or Oakland would trade one of the top two picks in the draft for an old, injured Shawn Springs and a 2008 draft pick?!?!?! It would cost this years first, next years first, and Shawn Springs AT THE VERY LEAST to move up. Springs is more valuable to the Redskins than he is to any other team in the league at this point. I doubt if anyone would give more than the equivalent of a 3rd rounder (and that is really on the high end) for him, though I think he is obviously more valuable than that (when healthy) to the Skins ... lets get out of fandom people, reality will set in on Saturday thankfully.

I think Detroit would consider it, not Oakland. Oakland's D is actually pretty nasty.

You think Detroit would trade completely out of the first round for Shawn Springs and a 2008 first round pick? That is what at least two people on here have implied. You must mean they would consider the #6 pick, a 2008 first rounder, and Springs. I think Tampa could pony up more than that, though, as I believe they have multiple 2nd round picks.

[GMScud]

All I know is we have 3 WRs 27 years old or younger, none of whom have been on the team longer than 2 years, ALL of whom got signing bonuses of at least $10M. And NOW we're gonna trade next year's 1st rd pick to move up and get ANOTHER WR?? WTF is right. The only way I like this is if we somehow move Lloyd for an additional draft pick, but I couldn't see us getting anything more than a 4th or 5th rounder for him, and no one wants his contract. More smoke and mirrors.

this is a great analogy. and isn't that article from FANTASY sports? the skins have done a great job this off season letting everyone know that they are interested in everyone. no one, other then the skins brass, knows who they are going to take

but the article isn't from fantasy sports - its a copy of a wash post article by Jason LaConfora who does a really good job of getting info. from Redskins park.

I do agree that it could be smoke & mirrors, but the team may in fact be offering Springs. That's the real "news" in the story to me.
