they already traded him. Bruce was a project and never even started a game for the Raiders

Lets trade them Kyle Shanahan for an old Al Davis wind suit. Straight up Baby!! But must be pre and post game worn. Everybodys a winner.

I think it would have been like the Hershal Walker trade was for the Cowboys.

The Raiders already traded Campbell to the Panthers.

I was high on Campbell out of college but he doesn't seem to be playing up to his expectations. Still, I'd take a shot on him, maybe a change in environment will get him right.

Found that out after the fact...

Honestly...being overly emotional here...I couldn't get behind trading Cooley to the Raiders for anything reasonable. The guy has been a trooper for the Skins for years. He deserves better than getting shipped off to football hell. I'm ok moving on without him but only if we can get him to a decent situation and get a reasonable return. Tripp is right. if we can get a younger guy under team control for a a few more years then it should happen. Just not Oakland.

It's not like we've ever gotten much of of JB to begin with. Is his absence really that big of a deal considering when he's played, he's been mediocre at best?

Yeah, I thought Polumbus looked just as good. I gues I dont know what I am looking at. Our line only gave up two sacks a game with Willie and Polummbus in there at tackles. Maybe, it was because the game plan was altered. But I am with you, infact Royster came in and averaged 5.9 yds a carey.

I'm not sure we needed Garcon AND Morgan (particularly when you consider Morgan has the same injury concerns as Hankerson coming into the season), but 7 out of 7 days I'll take Garcon over Winston if we had to choose one or the other. First because as solid as he is Winston is coming off of off-season ankle surgery (I understand it was minor), wanted one of the biggest contracts ever for a RT and his strength is run blocking (we are not a run heavy team). And also because I tend to think a top flight WR is more important than a RT.

Seems like one of RG3's favorite targets so far has been Garcon, based on the camp reports I've read. Too many are ready to call the deal a bust before even seeing it play out.

Solid points all around, and I think RT vs WR for the 2012 season was/is/will be a good debate.

As others have said Garcon is Griffin's favorite target so far. My hope is Griffin's mobility keeps him upright as the o line struggles.
