Maske/JLC: Gibbs Hints Redskins Might Trade Up

Didn't you hear? The No. 6 pick wants out of Washington!

I KNEW IT !!!! WE NEVER SIGN OUR OWN ! ALWAYS VALUING THE SEXIER FREE AGENT PICK UP !!!!

briggs wants a long term deal and market value. they offered 7 years 33 mil, id say thats substantially below market value compared to what we have seen this offseason. joey porter got 5 years 32 million...

What do we have that will entice any team to trade places with us to move up?

It's not like we have another first round pick, and a second, third, fourth -- which is what it would take for someone to give up on Johnson.

Agreed. I don't see it happening

Rocky has no value right now. The only way he will ever have any trade value again is if he earns it on the field.

Yeah, I realized how stupid it sounded after I said it. that's why I edited my post.

Yeah, the Bears are pretty cheap. Not only that, Jerry Angelo is an insecure little bitch (and I don't use that word often). Look at the facts

- They lowball Lovie Smith on a contract extension
- They trade Thomas Jones because Jerry Angelo wants to show the world he made the right choice in drafting Benson.
- He turns down the Redskin trade claiming he doesn't want to be bullied by Briggs. What man, secure in himself, would announce that publicly.
- They let Ron Rivera, one of the best DC's in the league go because they think he'll cost to much.
- The reason Lovie Smith was hired in the first place had more to do with cost then credentials (though I will go on record and say he was definately qualified).

You deserve better Chicago. They did such a good job builidng a team but now there cheap nature is coming back to bite them in the ass.

One thing about him is that he is an extremely patient team builder. He will not trade up to 6 unless he thinks there is a player who can help their team. Theres no guarentee the Bears make this trade.

FOX Sports - NFL - For once, 'Skins better off trading (http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/6618234)

I will give you the fact that hes a patint team builder but would you come out in public and say I'm not going to be bullied? The only thing that really seems to be on the line is Angelos ego.
