Rumor: Brunell heading to Seattle

skinsnut · 08-31-2007, 08:56 AM

I really think any deal would be "saving face" deal.

This is what I mean...if the skins got a 4th or 5th...they could claim they essentially traded Brunell for Kendell....which would be a great deal.
OR
If they got a 6th, they could say they basically got their 6th back from this year who they spent on the backup of the future...essentially trading Brunell for youth potential at QB. Problem with that is....Palmer sucks so bad, he can't be on the active roster to take his place.....that is probably why no deal will go down (my opinion)

Knowing the Skins, I highly doubt they will pick up a free agent to replace Brunell cause they will have no clue on the playbook....The only other option would be to bring back Bramlet and have him #3 and have Palmer on the practice squad. I really think that the Skins would need a 5th though so they can claim they essentially traded him for Kendell....otherwise, it aint worth it... and if what someone said was true about the salary cap hit....that would mean locking up Cooley would be in jeopardy.

At this point, I'd say lock up Cooley, hold on to Brunell and get nothing by releasing him next year when we can afford it. It is not worth risking losing Cooley for a likely 5th-6th round draft pick.

Bramlet's in Atlanta, we lost the chance to have him this year. Hindsight being 20/20, we should have cut Palmer and kept Bramlet as a 3rd qb, as it would have given us the flexibility to deal Brunell.

Dana Carvey as Jonny Carson......"I did not know that....weird, wild stuff"

As I would say....boy, that really sucks!

If you the post or a seattle paper they are reporting that the teams were just talking, and this is not anything confirmed.
