That's what I thought about Chris Samuels but now we all have to deal with losing him.

Like Bob Dylan says..."The times are a changin' "

Learn to adapt with the environment and don't hold on too tight because the only thing that remains the same is change.

The compromising man is one who, contrary to his own volition, adapts to his enviroment. However the uncompromising man will die trying to adapt his enviroment to his will. Therefore all progress is forged by the uncompromising man.

Any head coach or GM that lays on their laurals and morals in order to appease the Redskins front office is bound to fall victim to the malignant force that is Dan Snyder. You can see it first hand, everyday, in the dejected lament pasted all over Jim Zorns face. He is a shell of the man he was 2 years ago, all wide eyed and optimistic. This oranization has stripped him of his spirit because he attempted to adapt, to compromise. And now we are talking about ridding ourselves of the one man who is seemingly impervious to the surrounding chaos. A player who has found a way to mold his enviroment to his will. That is the kind of guy you build a team around. Not the kind of character you should so flippantly disregard. Do you think the Pats are thinking of dealing Randy Moss or the Colts, Dallas Clark or the Cards Larry Fitz. Cooley is the most productive offensive weapon washington has and here he should stay.

If the Skins could be mentioned in the same breath as these teams then it wouldn't be an issue.

Your examples don't fit...it's more like, do the Rams think about dealing Steven Jackson?

Cap hit complicates possible Steven Jackson trade | ProFootballTalk.com

The answer is yes...the times are a changing.

Cooley isn't Tony Gonzalez. I'd take that trade in a heartbeat.

Of course you take that trade. The fact that no team would ever actually offer that shows that we would be getting a great deal.

Re: Chris Cooley for a 1st and a 3rd -- would you do it?

then if we were to pull the trigger on that deal and our 2 first round picks and the 3rd turn out to be complete busts (which would probably happen with our luck recently)
You would hear all over that the FO was stupid for even thinking of trading Cooley.. So I wouldn't do this. cant compare him to Gonzalez yet. he hasnt been in the league that long.

I'd trade Landry for those picks and draft Taylor Mays with that a 1st round pick.

That would be good move, I believe.. I would also try to dangle either Doughty or Horton, just to see what they are worth and if it is worth to trade one of them..

Like I said in other thread, no way would I trade Cooley.. He's our only reliable weapon, without him - our offense would only go worse.. Beside we haven't really seen what Fred Davis could do.. He's good at blocking but obviously JC don't have any bond with him, like he did with Cooley..
