I'll second that! NO THANKS.

No cancer in the locker room in DC. Give a kid like Mix a shot. I personally think we are in pretty good shape at WR.

Even if we did need help (which I don't think we do), I would pass on his services!

Will Synder pass? CJ is a great player upgrade no doubt plus his the type of player that entertains that puts people in the stands more money. To be honest it's a win win for Synder!!!

Before you get excited about him coming here; take a look back at TO's career.

In his early days TO might've been a loud mouth in the SF locker room but was pretty unknown to the public. As he got more productive & became known as a big time reciever, his behavior publicly changed.

We've seen this with CJ as well, and what seems to reinforce this behavior is when a team grants their wish & trades them or lets them walk. Not that the team is making a mistake, if the guys a problem get rid of him, but at the same time it reinforces the selfish player's attitude that they should get what they want.

What we've seen the last 2 years w/CJ is that his behavior has regressed to being more egotistical & self-absorbed. He's gotten into more public arguments w/Palmer & teamates & now he's going public. It seems a downward spiral to me, the dude may not be anotehr TO, but he may sell out any team that's willing to take a chance on him, like TO did in Philly. TO's behavior only changed after he'd burned most of his bridges. CJ has a lot of bridges left to burn, I say better he do so somewhere else.

What a nightmare to have to cover T.O. and Johnson at the same time...

I would welcome that. Two egos in the same locker room? They'd end up pissing someone off for failing to get the ball to them enough.

I think Chad is too much into himself. He wants out because he saw Randy and T.O. end up with contenders and he thinks he deserves it too. I wonder if he would go to a team like the Raiders since he wants out so bad?

I can't imagine anyone wanting to go to the Raiders.

I wish Moss was still there tho. Then maybe I wouldn't be seeing something about the Pats every time I turn on a sports channel.

Unless TO retires, Chad will never be a Cowboy. No room for two egos that size in the same receiving corps. Can you imagine what would happen the first time a reporter asked either of them who the team's #1 WR is?

That said, I could definitely see him on the Eagles. Ick.

TO signed what amounts to 3 1 year deals, w/08 being the 3rd. The boyz could cut him & not affect their cap at all. If he's a problem this playoffs & offseason like he was in philly, they might decide to cut him. He's probably got 1 really good year left before he slows down & has to become more of a possession reciever.

You know I was thinking the same thing. If there was a chance he could go to Dallas or the Eagles with Westbrook we would have a tough time with both of those teams.

Ummm, he had 81 catches for nearly 1400 yards and 15 TDs in 15 games this year. He's showed no signs of slowing down, he's a physical freak, he knows the team and the offense and hasn't been a problem on or off the field this year.

I think Dallas needs to get younger at WR. Signing another 30+ year old WR with a big contract and a bigger ego would be dumb. Crayton is solid #2, Witten is all-world, and they have two good backs. Why throw another massive ego into the mix? They should look to draft a good WR prosepct to develop until TO hangs it up.

We already have a tough time with both of those teams. Every team in the east really. We're 4-8 against the division the past 2 years. We don't need any of them getting any better.

I realy believe that this could work in our favor. He is entertaining yet put up top numbers. He would be our number 1 receiver, with moss no. 2 and randle el in the slot with cooley down the middle and portis on the draws. It sounds amazing to me with Saunders calling the plays with no handcuffs. Things like this never works out for us. We make trades that don't make sense (except for LG Kendall) but we won't this time because it makes sense. Synder please do what you do and bring Johnson here.
