me neither. we spent two second rounders on two WRs hoping one of them would pan out. WR is a very hard position to draft. its certainly worth two 2nd rounders, especially when one of them is in 2010, making it valued as a 2010 3rd.

Denver and Pittsburgh will be competing for the Dez Bryant, Golden Tate picks in the draft.

How is a 2010 2nd valued as a 2010 3rd?

well, I'm sure that he just meant that next year's is currently valued a bit less

like you see how some people suggest instead of a 2nd this year, offer a 1st next year, etc

[freddyg12]

I was wondering if the Skins were even eligible to sign him to an offer sheet? Since we have no 2nd round pick this year could we've offered a contract & then if Denver didn't match it would we be able to give the 2nd round pick (per his tender w/Denver) in 2011?

i am glad that he isnt coming here. i am excited to see what our young guys can do with a new qb and a (hopefully) bolstered oline.

Henne looked alright playing with garbage WRs. He'll look a hell of a lot better, now. He probably becomes a borderline starting fantasy QB.

BLOWN.....shitty way to start the morning.....I REALLY wanted us to land Marshall. Oh well, we didnt have the ammo I guess. We still need another WR to replace Randel El. Hope we go after T.O.

We had ammo enough to make it happen, but 2 2nd round draft picks is too much to give. We have 3 young recievers ready to prove themselves. Any one of them(probably Thomas) can turn into a stud number 1 with Donovan throwing at them. 1000 yds, 7+ Tds. We will turn those draft picks we didn't use on starters at RB & Offensive line. Or maybe the QB of the future beyond Donovan.

Plus he's a malcontent. We've got enough of those. IMO, Brandon Marshall was worth a 2nd a 4th in next years draft to us. Anything more, and let him go elsewhere.

I was happy this morning to see he went to Miami. Away from our division, and they overpaid. Win Win.

Good deal for both teams, and at least it doesn't involve any NFC East rivals. Dolphins may deal Ginn now, and Denver probably picks up a Wr in the 2nd round. Good draft for receivers.
Seriously, Adam Schefter is kicking Glazer, Mort, King and the NFL networks tail. Is anybody else even trying?

Where is Backupliquoredup Kicker? I thought he had the scoop on this!??!
