Haha, nice!
A commentor beat me to it, but we're getting a pick from Cleveland that they don't even have in there.
...
And this would put us about 14 million over the cap ;)
not if we cut portis, jansen, and randy thomas. those guys are making way too much money anyways. I know some fans love portis and think he's the best redskin running back ever, but he's a locker room cancer. plus, we could just cut him and re-sign him to the vet minimum, like we did with shawn springs...
seriously, it would be nice to have a slightly more plausible hoax... this one had me for all of ten seconds... but was still fun, anyways

If this is true, then that confirms that DS and VC are out of touch with the franchise. Why trade Cooley and Landry for a guy that had one decent season and suffers from diabetes that could cause issues and is an arrogant punk.

It's not true. Come on. Among other things, Cleveland doesn't even have the pick they mentioned in the trade.

This sounds fake, not even PFT is reporting this and they come up with some outrageous crap.

That crazy ass rumor is circulating around my office.
It's funny how much the Skins are giving up. First they say Campbell, Cooley and then a 5th rounder. They then throw in LaRon Landry right at the end to make it completely outrageous and laughable.

I think Matty should lock the ability to create threads on April's fool. People will believe any fake news about the FO and we will be flooded with threads about fake news.

It happened like gang busters last year.
There were tons of believable Redskins trades that were posted on April 1st.
...heartless bastards.

Jay Cutler to DC: Three Way Trade Has Five Players Moving and Two Draft Picks | Bleacher Report (http://bleacherreport.com/articles/140554-jayc-to-dc-3-way-trade-has-5-players-moving-and-2-drafts)
Did April Fools day come early this year?
Well, five o' clock has come and gone...so much for that rumor. I've heard some whoppers in my day but that took the cake.
Anybody know when the last, non-draft day, 3-team trade took place in the NFL?
