We need to build the D Line for the future with youth. Why does someone always have to bring up the veteran minimum? :'( Anyway, on a seperate note, for the sake of emphasizing the Bronco thing: http://assets.espn.go.com/i/nfl/profiles/players/65x90/5508.jpg (http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=2609) Rogers on the block? Shaun Rogers \| Lions (http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=det) \| Interested: Broncos (http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=den)? Lions general manager Matt Millen acknowledged he would listen to offers for defensive tackle Shaun Rogers, and there is no question that there is interest, ESPN.com's John Clayton reports. According to a source, approximately five or six teams have expressed interest in Rogers, who can be one of the most dominating defensive players in football. Rogers' name has been mentioned in trades in recent years, but this is the most serious talk of a possible deal. Last year, the Lions gave Cory Redding a seven-year, $47.5 million contract, moving him to defensive tackle in an effort to motivate Rogers. EARTHQUAKE2689 02-25-2008, 10:11 PM People are in love with the so called vet. minimum thats why SmootSmack 02-26-2008, 10:58 AM Are you gonna officially call that? I'm close to officially calling this. And if the rumors are true the Broncos sure seem to be giving up a lot. That Guy 02-27-2008, 03:04 AM he's a beast, but only for 20 plays a game. i'd rather spend money on an every down guy. that said, it's pretty stupid for the lions to trade him, unless there's some locker-room/off field stuff we haven't heard about. sportscurmudgeon 02-27-2008, 05:09 PM He ate his way out of Detroit. Was that because he knew the Lions stunk and he had a contract that would keep him there so he found a way to get the team to cut him? If that is not the case, let him go elsewhere... SkinsFanSince91 02-27-2008, 05:28 PM NO TRADES!!! Has the SDAS (Snyder Dumb @ss Syndrome) rubbed off on all of you guys. Every year you guys want to trade picks for some player(granted some trades are legitimate, but most of the ones that we discuss or pass our way aren't), and in a year where we have close to a full stock of draft picks, people still wanna let em go like Teddy Pendergrass. Thats beat! Lets keep all of our picks for at least 3 years and lets see what happens. Haven't you guys seen the trend? Most players work hard their first contract and then chill once they come to a sucker-fied team like the Skins that will pay them top-dollar because of their past laurels. Then, as the sucker, we are stuck with a guy who was just trying to get a pay day (e.g. Deion, Bruce Smith, L Coles, B Lloyd, T Duckett, Adam Archuleta, etc.) Rather than being a sucker - again, I propose we stay sucker-free!! Build through the draft and lets not get a woody anytime some player hits the free agent market or is mentioned in trades. Let the players that we draft become "core" Redskins by proving themselves with modest rookie contracts, and then by that time, hopefully, we can decide whether we can to keep or, how about this, trade them for picks that we can have! Oh my, what a novel idea! J. Spanky 02-27-2008, 06:03 PM NO TRADES!!! Has the SDAS (Snyder Dumb @ss Syndrome) rubbed off on all of you guys.

Oh my, what a novel idea! hmmm, an interesting concept. but... nah! let's trade ALL our picks for shaun rogers AND roy williams! Dirtbag59 02-28-2008, 12:45 AM hmmm, an interesting concept. but... nah! let's trade ALL our picks for shaun rogers AND roy williams! I second that, draft picks suck. Lets trade for two former Lion's. Lol Either way, if there is a disgruntled lieman to be traded for, the Bronco's are on it. To bad the Redskins don't have any disgruntled D-Lineman, if we did they could that player and a draft pick. SmootSmack 02-28-2008, 12:48 AM Who would be a better option, Rogers...or DeWayne Robertson?
