Washington Just Picked

...I hope they had him targeted and think he will start and perform...A second next year...thats expensive. Look at all the great players that just went in the second round. And again we're giving away our draft.

Mabye this guy is a sleeper and will be a stud in Gibbs system, rookie of the year honors after we win the super bowl?

I like the trade. But after this, I'd prefer we stop trading away future picks and wait to see what we can find in the rookie free agent pool.

I also really like the fact that Cooley is married and graduated with a 3.3. Smart and settled down. Sounds like a good Redskin to me.

Yeah, I'm getting sick of these picks being traded away as well. maybe they can swing some more deals.

He'd better be good if we gave up a second rounder. Man I hate it when they do this.

Cooley info from NFL.com

we still have a 5th rounder, just lower in the 5th... still sounds like a steep price

his numbers are acutally better, or atleast the same, as Winslows numbers. Granted, it was in the SunBelt conference, but still, he had over 60 receptions while lining up as a full back and a tightend. Could be the receiving threat we needed to go with Rasby blocking. Im excited about the possabilities.

Not exactly a glowing recommendation.

the SI one wasnt that bad. It acutally says a lot of great things about him. Then all of a sudden just says that he'll neverstart but can play a hback role well. If Gibbs worked him out. ive gotta beleive he thinks he will start and contribute in that role. Expecially to warrant a second round pick.

I like it!

I was just getting back from Dairy Queen to find this little gem when I got home.

I also think he will be more of a team player, to hell with a ME player like Winslow.

That is to funny I did the same exact thing.
