Re: Rumor from Denver
How do you think that rumors get started and there become sources to cite? It's not like teams run to the papers with every idea that they think of lol

Re: Rumor from Denver
We need to find a way to get 10 draft picks this year so we can draft 10 offensive lineman and run an offense with 1 QB, 1 RB, 1 TE, and 8 Offensive Lineman. Sometimes we'll take one offensive lineman out and put in a second Tight End. We'll call that our spread formation. Oh and no QB's drafted on day 1. This offense is strictly limited to serviceable veterans and young developmental late round prospects who will never see the field because they are "developing."

Re: Rumor from Denver
[Q] Call it a poker face, or call it honesty. But this draft does seem to have quarterbacks — Jake Locker, Andy Dalton, Christian Ponder, Ryan Mallett, Colin Kaepernick — that analysts believe are capable of breaking the trend of second-rounders that never deliver. Do the Redskins believe so as well? [U]

Re: Rumor from Denver
Well, as I said earlier in this thread Broncos rumors are tied as much to them looking to save some money as anything else. End of the day I think they stay at #2. And yes, MS does like Gabbert (or Kyle really does, I forget which one), but they're not trading up for anyone. I mean never say never, but I'd be totally stunned. If anything they'll trade up from the top of round 2

Re: Rumor from Denver
No way this trade happens. We don't have enough picks to move up 8 spots, and we can t afford losing a 2nd rd pick for Gabbert

Re: Rumor from Denver
If Fat Ass needed the O2 tank at least once a game here while playing at around sea level, could you imagine what he'd be like playing 8 games at Mile High?

Re: Rumor from Denver
I think it would be more plausible to trade up with denver in the 2nd round giving them Haynesworth and our second round pick for their second round pick. Puts AH back in a 4-3 in the AFC West, far away from Washington.

Re: Rumor from Denver
We can't trade fatty or anyone else without a new CBA.

Re: Rumor from Denver
I honestly don't see the Skins throwing their only top two picks just to move up for one spot. They really need to, if anything at all, trade out of the #10 spot to pick up more draft picks themselves.

Re: Rumor from Denver
This seems like a difficult year to trade back, especially in the top 5. The uncertianty w/the cba/lack thereof makes it hard to determine just how much teams will have to pay these picks. I think we're in a much better spot to trade back than Denver.

Re: Rumor from Denver
Exactly how much of a difference in pay will it be? I know significant from the #1 pick to #10 but honestly their going to have to pay someone to perform the job. As far as the CBA goes I don't think either side had a problem with the Rookie Cap. The owners want it, the players want it because the not used money can be used for the vets on the team or keeping the vets on the team. If anything at all the players are using it as a bargining chip for something else, but I'm sure the Rookie Cap will be in place this year so teams really don't need to worry about what they will be paying the #2 spot.

Re: Rumor from Denver
You make some good points and i am sure a lot of people on here agree with you. I am just looking at it from the angle of which holes are more difficult to fill in terms of finding them and ultimately training them to play. We are already a year into the Shanny regime...we simply have to have the QB this year to start grooming him. As for the many other holes on the team...we have a cleaned out cap and eventually the biggest crop of free agents ever to choose from. We can select some young players from that group and use whatever other draft picks we have also. Basically there are a lot of other ways to build a team other then with high draft picks but you will rarely if ever find a Franchise QB that way. So if in Shannys mind he can solve the QB problem with a couple of #1 picks then he should do it.
