They definitely got over on us on the Mcnabb trade and while this is not a direct trade with us its just to good to be true.
We talk all the time about how somebodys worth a draft pick,Cousins is worth a 2nd,Fred Davis is worth a 4th,etc.I dont know for sure whether the Eagles tried to trade him or not,but how do you not get something in return for this guy? The Eagles know him better than anybody,I dont see any of his Eagles teammates having his back. Like I said it just seems to good to be true,and you know the saying about that.
As far as him doing any returns,I doubt he will.Skins have a long history of not using their best punt returners as punt returners for fear of injury and I've never understood it.
Other teams have used their starters as punt returners,Rod Woodson,Deon Sanders come to mind.You cant control when a players going to get hurt,your paying him the big money so let him do what hes good at.
Skins should have used D.Green as a returner.I can forgive them for not using him in that role in his prime,but he should have been used more.Especially his last yr,he still had the speed,only saw the field in nickel package,there was no reason not to.
Should have used Moss more or DeAngelo Hall last yr when we sucked so bad

Its not completely unbelievable that him and Kelly didnt mesh, or that the Eagles didnt want to pay him. We are paying him less than they would have, plus they do have Maclin coming back. I know as Redskins fans we are always waiting for the axe to fall, but this is actually us hitting the lottery.
