i'm more intrigued that Smoot indicated the bleacherreport nonsense may end up being true. a 3rd and 4th to Oakland for Campbell? high picks in each round. very happy for us. very sad for campbell.

And I've said a few times that Landry and Kelly/Moss and possibly a Saturday pick have been tied to Marshall rumors

As for the Oakland rumor, just to be clear I wasn't saying there is a pending Oakland for a 3th and 4th rumor. Just that Oakland is a legit partner and that compensation aligns with most rumors (though perhaps a bit higher than most rumors)

thanks for the clarifications. so do you think we may end up getting more than many of us expected/feared for campbell?

From my past professional experience with Landry, he just doesn't show up whenever he feels like not showing up. And he's not to one really give any reason for it

We also could all have no idea what's going on with Landry. It could be a simple as his monkey having a vet appointment for annual shots.

I'm in a bad mood when I know how much I'm forking over to the vet for my dog's shots...no matter how much I have, it's the principle in the matter...they jack up the prices for what takes 30 seconds to do.

Reid is reporting that Landry will be back tomorrow and will participate in the minicamp. so who knows why he left. this could just be something that got blown way out of proportion.

Online rumor mills and Twitter tend to do that.

I do trust Kelli Johnson though.

I'm starting to think that being named Mike Williams is a surefire way to make yourself a first round bust...and weight problems:

No matter how much Carroll likes him, however, it's highly unlikely that Williams will actually play for the Seahawks in 2010. The 6-foot-5 Williams is listed at 230 pounds but has reportedly weighed in at 270 or more. After playing for the Lions in 2005 and 2006, he played briefly with the Titans and Raiders in 2007 and hasn't played in a regular-season game since then.

Which one did it? Pleaaaaase?

Has Jason Campbell been traded? « DC Pro Sports Report

lol do they pay you?

DCPSR is like a PFT (as in external stories aggregated in one location) for the Skins.. they pull in stories reported elsewhere and comment on them. Sometimes they'll have original (opinionated or opinion-driven) articles but as far as I know they've not really had much original as far as workings. That's no offense to them, but I wouldn't call it "another source."
