In the article imagine this Moss in a Redskins uniform supposed professional responsible profesional sports writters are proposing thing like this
*"So imagine, if you will, this scenario: The Vikings send Moss to the Redskins for their No. 1 pick (ninth overall), a No. 2 (either this year or next) and LaVar Arrington (without whom the Washington defense did just fine this season, ranking third in the league)."
No wonder casual fans are spouting similar strange theories. So not only do we trade our franchise defensive player and one of the longest serving players but our fisrt and second round picks (which we don't have - Cooley trade) for a PITA player. Owens last year was traded for a 3rd and a 5th and a player on the bubble and that is only becasue Baltimore was involved . The times goes on to say....
"It would be similar to the Champ Bailey-for-Clinton Portis trade. The Redskins would be swapping a Pro Bowl defensive player for a Pro Bowl offensive player — one big contract for another — and also mortgaging some of their future."
Champ was gone he didn't want to play here no more Arrington loves Washington so much has just signed a huge extention and has said he will probably drop the 6.5million greivence... now there is love for you. For the price Denver ended up paying Bailey we got Portis and Springs a probowl offensive and defensive player. The Mortgaging of our future I assume was our second round pick which some say was OTT but no where near as damaging as trading a top ten pick and most likey solid starter at least.
At least they aknowledge that
[I]"The trick would be to make the numbers work. The Redskins would be hit with a huge cap charge if they traded Arrington so early in his deal, but they could alleviate some of it by releasing Mark Brunell, their grossly overpaid backup quarterback. Fitting in Moss' salary would be less problematic. He's due to make $7.25 million next season, but the Redskins could guarantee the money and reduce his cap number to about $1.8 million."[/]
But what about 2006/07 the years they espouse we will in cap hell taking major hits to the cap like this now would be devistating especially consdiering how close we are to the cap now and the size of Mosses contract he doesn't stike me as a renegociating type.
But of cause Snyders the most likey to pull the trigger on a deal like this becasue of all of his splashy moves in ermm 2000 4 years ago. Remeber our big time moves like in 2002 when we got uch glittering stars like Danny W, Shane Mathews, Anthony and all the other bargin basement ex Gators. Or how about 2001 with the Shottenhimer purge of the roster that not only got rid of many of the big time players brought in in 2000 but also a whole load of young talent.
