Redskins Talking Trade with Raiders?

Can he play RT?

No he is not!! Cooley for Barnes would be a very stupid trade. I've seen plenty of Raider games and Barnes is lucky to be on a team, he is horrible. I would much rather have Polumbus or Smith in there. Barnes just flat out sucks!!Yes he is!! lol
I never said anything about Cooley for Barnes.
But not only did Barnes play 16 games (which automatically makes him better then Jammal Brown).
But based on Profootball Focus Barnes graded out better then Brown.
Again its not saying much, but it is what it is.

I just read an article on the Bleacher Report about a potential trade with the Steelers involving Mike Wallace and Chris Cooley.

Might as well had read The Onion. About as accurate.

Something tells me that Barnes did not write that. Very unflattering. And the article mentions the same penalty-prone behavior that you listed.

To be clear, that's the author's own speculation. And ridiculous speculation at that. He and I had some words about this. He feels at some point the Steelers will have no choice but to trade Wallace for something like a 4th/5th and the Redskins are waiting to pounce.

He's completely off-base.

Bleacher Report makes some good hires (like Russell Baxter), but then they give a guy like this (who is an experienced media guy) that "Featured Columnist" title and it's all for naught.

But the MO there was clearly to go for the pageviews, and he succeeded

I feel like Bleacher Report has become the new PFT. Occasionally they have good insight, but if you hear something too good to be true from them it most likely is. I love Cooley, but I'd give him and a 5th up for Wallace in a heartbeat.

Going into preseason again talking about Right Tackle play and question marks makes me wonder why we didnt draft a Tackle in the 3rd round? We coulda still drafted Compton and Gettis, but seemed RT was more of a priority than McRib at C.

This one is on Shanny if we going into the season with JB injured.

So 1. Allen is now saying there are no trade talks at all. 2. I inquired, and there was a conversation but it did not involve any significant players. Just some minor players and late draft picks being tossed around as part of everyday conversation between GMs.

A "totally inconsequential" conversation is what I've been told

Thanks ss
