[Redskins549]

was this the huge trade that Jay Glazer said there would be?

I'm disappointed we're not getting him but happy he's not in the NFC East anywhere..

I guess so, not very big, I was hoping for like a 5 team trade.

CB Hall refutes reported trade - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

Looks like this deal might not go through.

Look at the link two posts below.

Desparate teams are going to eat up all the big trades and signings. Dont be surprised to see Hackett go to the Panthers because they need WR, and are desparate enough to overpay one. One thing we are not is desparate. We need depth and do have our problems but we are not at a state of desparation. DS has a tendacy to make us think we are sometimes but don't be fooled. As far as Hall goes, I do not know his potential b/c Atlanta has had its problems. IF he turns out to be the best DB in a long time, I'd rather play agaisnt him once a year every so many years (twice if we meet in the SB), than twice a year every year. I beleive our front office is looking for reliable talent that is proven this year. Hall will be hit and miss in Oakland or he will be phenominal. Frankly, I'll let the Cheifs, Broncos, and Chargers stay up all night thinking about it.

We need to build a team not buy.Find a corner in the draft,and tutor him (shawn springs).Mike Jenkins will be a quality corner in this league in 2-3 years.Redskins need to draft him.

I don't think we need another no.2 corner right now, because Shawn Springs was healthy all of last year, Carlos Rogers is having some good progress with that knee, and Fred Smoot proved to be a pretty good corner, we also have Byron Westbrook, he played well in the preseason, we have Leigh Torrence who was or our nickel corner last year, and we have John Eubanks who was cut in the middle of last year.

uh i dont think your watching the same redskins team that i am. Both springs and smoot battled injuries last season and carlos is not a true number one when fully healthy let alone coming off an injury. Cb is a need on this team. And Eubanks is not the answer, he is absolutely awful..

yeah especially since we made no FA moves towards a DB my prediction is that one will be selected first round by us, and we may even trade up to do so.

[WaldSkins]

We don't need to trade up to select a Cb, There will still be atleast 3 quality DBs available at the 21. Cromartie will be there at least till the second.

[Skinny Tee]

There should still be a lot of good corners left when its our turn to pick at 21. I'm excited about the prosopect of landing a good corner in the first round.

Rogers cannot be factored into the competitive roster because of the severity of his injury. If he plays great, but we can't expect much out of him this coming year.

Talib, Cromartie, McKelvin or Jenkins I would gladly accept in the first round

i don't like talib, but i'd be happy with any of the other three. I still doubt ANY (except maybe talib) make it to #21 though.
