I like your thinking, but
A) I wouldn't trade Cooley, he's one of the few good players on Offense we have to build from.
B) the last time we brought in a great return man, he returned only one punt for a TD in the last four years, and has had more fair catches than return yards.
His name Antwaan Randle El...
I have a feeling that Cribbs might be the same here.

I love Cooley, big time. But we have lots of issues, and trading him for picks like that, or even a good offensive lineman, is the start we need to get things rolling the right way. Davis looked pretty good, and you don't really need to TE that can catch the ball. Trade him while he has value to us and someone else. Although it will hurt to see him go.

When was the last time a team gave up something like a first and another pick for an aging player and didn't get ripped off? Dallas got jobbed on Roy Williams, Philadephia sure didn't get value out of Jason Peters (although I still think that was a good trade), Seymour was good for Oakland but not worth the price, Deion Branch to the Seahawks was a bust. Jarret Allen is the only one I can think of off the top of my head that worked out for the team acquiring the player (and even there, KC got a solid lineman out of the deal). Doesn't recent history suggest that you should pretty much always trade a veteran for a first round pick?

Fred Davis did well when he went down... I'd do it.

rao2 · 01-16-2010, 01:00 AM

Yes, i love cooley but i love the redskins more than a player. It will definately help us to acquire ol or a qb

DBUCHANON101 · 01-16-2010, 01:07 AM

Many needs, we have a good young TE in Davis. get what you can for the rebuild.
even if its a 2nd rounder thats huge for us at this point.

A first and 3rd for cooley would be more than fair. Cooley rocks, but you need multiple picks soon. Portis pre concussion would have been the #1 guy for trade bait status, but now I am not too sure folks would want him. Chris broke an ankle, easier to deal with, and not a potential long term problem. In short, Cooley is probably the only serviceable player we have in terms of trade bait.

The most we'd get for Cooley is a 2nd....Carlos Rogers is probably the best trade bait weve got right now. with the FA market of CB hes rated #1...He'd get us a 1st or Multiple picks maybe 2nd & 3rd

I don't know. With a system where we will most likely be leaving CB's on an island Rogers will probably prove to be valuable. Still I guess for a 1st I would do it.

And he's a player that would want to leave the Redskins, and a player that we could realistically find a trading partner. Still, trading a player is ging to be challenging with the uncertainty after the 2010 season.

I would do it for a 3rd and a 5th.
