ok, just so im clear, this trade is or is not goin to happen? and i agree, i cant believe the skins were even considering this.
It's not happening and if you ask me it was never a serious offer in the first place.

Does anyone think that Snyder intentionally low-balled the offer? He may have offered the same deal we gave AA & Loyd, which would be a steal in this market. That may be why the deal fell through, since it was contingent on a long-term contract for Briggs. Snyder may have made a one-time offer. If he did, you couldn't blame him for trying. How would people here feel if we got Briggs for something like 10-12 mil signing bonus?
The Bears may have just spinned it to say they're not interested.

Tampa Bay could be interested in him, since he's from the same D scheme, but I don't think Gruden would want to miss a chance to draft CJ.

Let this nonsense be done with! If we really offered this deal and Chicago turned it down they would be nuts and thats why I doubt it ever was offered as reported.

Just Snyder kicking ideas around while throwing down a few Manhattans probably. I would expect more of this kind of nonsense up until draft day. We don't want to tip our hand with our real plans now do we?

Official count on first calling this story BS...
Matty = 1
Members = 0Matty deserves at least 0.9 points for his true to his beliefs hard line stance, but I'm taking 0.1 credit for myself for this post (http://www.thewarpath.net/291844-post228.html).
That's right.

Great news, it's still a little disconcerning that Snyder was even thinking about doing this, and I thought we might have seen a change in the tide, guess not, unless this was a joke Snyder, and Rosenhaus had planned, which is great if it was. Good one Danny Boy.

I can't help but think there is something very fishy here, and I will be shocked if this actually happens.
