Redskins turned down Al Wilson!! plus great offer

I said they should just change Wilson to Bly, but anyway, Al Wilson would have been a long term answer at MLB, not a stopgap. Now, I love London Fletcher, but the guy's on the downside. If he plays more than 3 years here I'll be shocked. Al Wilson is still relatively young at 29. I think he's got about 5 productive years left. However, it doesn't matter cause it's not gonna happen. However, they should just replace Wilson with Bly and the deal should get done.

wilson is only 2 years younger, i dont think that makes a long term answer. he will be 30 at the start of the season and fletcher will be 32

Okay, but I still think they should make the same trade for Bly, which was actually the poorly illustrated main point of my first post. I think Al Wilson would have been nice, but Bly would be better. If they could have gotten Wilson instead of Flet I would have been happy. However, it didn't happen and I'm happy this way too.

al wilson is good, but fletcher + #6 is better than wilson and #21.

the broncos are making decent offers though.

we want dre and springs at corner next year trust me! i am telling you that it couldnt get any better than that for us...it also might give arch a chance to be more of a linebacker at safety if we have two guys who can cover the way those two do...carlos rodgers is a bust people...cant play a lick you tell me a good game he had and i will show you 5 bad ones, corners need to be consistent and he isnt.

there are so many scenarios out there but the more i look at it the more i say trade back in the draft to get more picks and or players via trade. i mean its obvious that we dont have the sack to make the 6th selection in the draft, but that might not be a bad thing all and all.

Arch and Rodgers are in the same boat in my book, its just nobody pointed out all of rodgers mistakes cause he is young and arch had a big pay day last year. but rodgers is in the same boat as arch if you ask me.

Wilson had a semi-serious neck injury last December. That could be reason for the Broncos to want to deal him. I'm glad we passed him up.

ESPN.com - NFL - Broncos LB Wilson returns to practice after neck injury (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2689025)

I read that this morning. How can you turn that down. Al Wilson, 1st, 3rd and possibly 2nd for our #6. WOW! I dont think there would be another trade situation where we could get 3 picks like that. It may have been our 3rd to begin with (duckett deal) which would have been a high 3rd. Plus Wilson.

This is the problem with Gibbs and Williams in charge of picking and choosing players. GW has suck a hard on for Fletcher, that they nix that deal. I GM may have looked at it a little longer and harder. If that is in fact the deal, that has to be hard to turn down.

It's obvious a deal with the Broncos is very likely to happen. Sounds like we're holding out for Bly. Wilson is a good player but Fletcher was a better fit.

Check my post in the other thread on 'What is Available at 21 and 42' (even though the pick is 56). According to the Draft Value Chart the Redskins would be CRAZY to take ANYTHING LESS than the Broncos first three picks (including our 3rd rounder back) and Dre Bly. If they don't get a second round pick in the deal then you are valuing Bly (or Wilson in the above mentioned trade) as basically the 38th overall pick. I mean, maybe that works, but what did the Broncos give up to get him? Tatum Bell, some other guy, and a 5th. Would anyone have given them the 38th overall pick for that package or is that more like a high third round value? I don't know, but I'd hold out for the first three picks and Bly. The Skins are probably going to have to move one of those other first day picks to move up from 21 and get Okoye (if that is who they really want), he is probably more like a 12-16 kind of player.

Arch and Rodgers are in the same boat in my book, its just nobody pointed out all of rodgers mistakes cause he is young and arch had a big pay day last year. but rodgers is in the same boat as arch if you ask me. It's funny you are ready to throw Rogers over the side. Are you one of those that think that Dockery leaving is the end of the world as well. Well let me tell you just a season a go Dockery was ready to be throw under the bus for so so play. One year later we get a big pay day and is the one of the best guardm in the league. Who kowns Rogers a year or so may be the best as well!
