Please!! Let this draft be done already. All these trade rumors are getting to be quite crazy. One day we're trading up, the next day down, and no one has a clue. I'll be content to wait ans see what happens on draft day. At the rate these rumors are going, we're trading and drafting everybody available.

if portis went down again this year and we did this trade we'd have to rely on rock and nemo to carry the load...yikes
No, if Portis goes down the FO will do another one of their TJ Duckett deals and next year's draft we'll be like we are now, trying to figure out how we're going to get those draft picks back. We need another WR like we need a hole in our heads.

CJ is amazing but i don't see us getting him. Whoever gets him will get a boost right away regardless of the WR's they have on their roster.

I don't love the trade but I would do this before the Briggs trade.
Most definitely!!!
That being said this trade will more than likely be one that does happen on draft day. However, the fact remains that we still dont have any other first day picks than the 6th overall. This trade would potentially give us CJ and a 3rd rounder.
Cant beat that with a bat!!
We'd be hearing "Campbell to Johnson. Touchdown!!!" for years to come!!

if we did this trade, and got the 3rd, it wouldn't surprise me if we took a running back to replace betts with that 3rd rounder...everyone wants to trade down so badly but it doesn't mean we will address the defensive line

We'd be hearing "Campbell to Johnson. Touchdown!!!" for years to come!!Because hearing "Campbell to Moss" just doesn't turn you on anymore? Novelty value gone?

But to give up betts? i dont like it to much myself. Portis goes down who do we turn to? betts is to valuable in my eyes and i wouldn't make this deal.

I'd be absolutely SHOCKED if Joe Gibbs trades Ladell Betts. I mean like drop-jaw shocked. I don't care how enamored he is with Calvin Johnson, I can't see him doing that. He loves Betts way too much.
I don't see this one happening.

First of all we need him, so how could that possibly be the perfect time to trade him?
What do you have a magic ball....his value will "NEVER" be higher? That makes no sense.
first off, his numbers from last season were terrific. he signed a 5 year contract, at a low number. this makes him very appealing to alot of front office people. at the most, his numbers could only rise a small amount this season. people look at betts as a stud right now. he has no where to go but down. if that makes no sense, then explain to me, when getting about 8-10 carries a game, his value will grow?
