AGREED! You know how hard it would be to defend the eagles twice a year with a smart TE when our OLB spot is shaky right now...good thing we have to play him once this year, and matt ryans gonna look even better

I'm not taking anything away from Gonzalez, who is a tight end god, but a #2 for him is too much. He's 33. At best they get a couple of declining years out of him. At worst he is Atlanta's Jason Taylor.

BleedBurgundy · 04-23-2009, 02:57 PM

Yep, good for him. He's wanted out of KC for a few years now.

Wow, they came back and got him. I thought that wasn't going to end up happening. Good for them.

Yeah, looked like that had stalled.. what was the original planned deal, a 2nd this year?

I heard Philly was looking at him in the past couple days. Should give Ryan another solid target.

Now Pioli just has to leverage the Redskins rumored interest in Sanchez into a 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and future 2nd from the Jets.

You're on to something here. Someone just emailed the Sports Reporters and mentioned a scary scenario ...

K.C. reportedly wants out of #3. Can someone say Cooley and the #13 spot for the Chiefs' 1st this year and the 2010 2nd rounder they just got from Atlanta? The Chiefs apparently have two 2nd round picks next year.

SFREDSKIN · 04-23-2009, 06:19 PM

similar to the Jason Taylor trade except that the Falcons didn't throw in a 5th rounder.

I would be greatly upset with the FO if we trade Cooley away - he is one of the best TEs in NFL (plus he's young).. (Just as I would be w/ the FO if we draft Sanchez but) Unfortunately, my feelings nor any other fans' doesn't matter to Redskins FO and I would continue to be Redskins fan, no matter what.. That will be difficult for me - hating and loving Redskins at same time..

I know, we have Fred Davis but he hasn't shown anything on field yet.. Do we really want to gamble on Davis?

If this happens, (which it won't) then it's official that D$ clearly has nothing but contempt for the fans of his franchise and feels that he'll continue to sell out Fedex regardless of his boneheaded moves.

Cooley's cap hit would be something like $11M.

Safe to say that's probably not gonna happen.
