Ocho Cinco In B&G

Not sure how I would feel about this....But it's intriguing.

Ocho Cinco - Redskins Insider

Sure, Johnson hasn't come right out and said publicly that he wants out, but the spectacle he is making of himself is clearly intended to put pressure on the Bengals to do something with him, as to this point Coach Marvin Lewis has said he will not trade the highly talented but enigmatic wideout.

Don't surprised to the see the Redskins as major players in the sweepstakes to land him should the Bengals shop him around. He has been discussed by owner Daniel Snyder and executive vice president Vinny Cerrato at length and his name came up frequently in conversations with coaching candidates, league sources said, expecting the Redskins to make a concerted push if he hits the market

There are already pictures of Johnson in a Redskins jersey floating around the internets and while at first, a few weeks back with Joe Gibbs still at the helm, I didn't think much of those pictures, after doing more homework I don't think it's a coincidence. While I would never accuse the Redskins - or any NFL team for that matter - of tampering, it's no secret around the league which teams covet which players.

The Skins will overpay either him or Randy Moss.

To even further the discussion, which head coach prospect could best deal with the high maintenance Ocho Cinco? (If I remember correctly, Mooch clashed with T.O. and I don't think Fassel is a players coach). Gibbs wouldn't even wanted to deal with Ocho's baggage...

I'm sure he'd get a huge payday here. The thought of giving Campbell that kind of target is very intriguing though. Johnson, Moss, El. Wow. I'd put those three up against New England's receivers anyday.

Delicious.

Bring him in. But how long before he yells at JC on the sidelines if he misses a deep ball or something like that.

The one thing I always loved Gibbs for was the moral behavior of his teams on and off the field. He was a real winner in that area above all.

If we're going to overpay for someone I would rather see CJ here over Moss.

Word. I have a ton of respect and admiration for Gibbs, but his teams are boring. I wanna have some fun man. He's one of the most popular players in the league, and he's got personality. The more I think about it, the more for it I think I would be.

I wrote a thread about this awhile ago. But yep i agree reasonable price , bring him in

I would prefer Moss but the problem with getting Moss is that the Skins are not enough of a consistent winner to keep him from starting to complain. CJ would also be good but like a previous post mentioned, he will not be happy when JC keeps missing him when he's open.

What I really wish is that the Skins could develop their own talent at cheaper prices rather than always overpaying for someone else's talent that just had a huge year.

Is it just me or does IRISH hate the Skins? Its a fact you hate GIBBS

No, neither is true.

He's under contract and not complaining about money. He's sick of losing and has publicly said that he doesn't like being a fall guy for their losing. I like his antics, when he's winning. It would probably cost us a 1st and 3rd though.
As for Mooch and TO, the only person TO has played for and not pissed off is Jerry Jones. I think it's unfair to say that Mooch couldn't get along with 85.

TheMalcolmConnection · 01-31-2008, 02:45 PM

Maybe it was SS who said it, or it was someone else.

I'd love to have either of them here, but why not sign Moss if he's released rather than TRADE for CJ?

That being said, I too, would love CJ being here. I agree what someone said above about people with some character issues. I DO enjoy a team that has few problems, but sometimes it's a good idea to take a chance on someone who's had issues in the past. Lloyd comes to mind, but he was a bust before he even came here.
