By comparison, Cooley's first 2 years here, he had 1088 yards, he has had consecutive 700+ yard seasons, but throwing Centers under the bus is ridiculous. He was also a pretty damn good blocker.

As for Lloyd and Randle El, I think it's a little early to say that these were bad signings. Who knows? Jason Campbell and his ability to actually throw downfield could see these two as legit threats alongside Santana.

While I agree with the majority of your post, I disagree with some of the guys you're using to indict Dan Snyder.
Agreed. Plus, remember that some of these guys we vilify the Redskins for signing really cost us next to nothing the loss was minimal. I'm talking about guys like Reed, Vincent, and Rumph (who incidentally was just cut by the Rams)

Yeah, I agree with that too. Taylor Jacobs for Rumph was a flat out steal. I don't care that Rumph sucked. Jacobs couldn't carry Moss's...hell, Lloyd's jock. That guy has no heart and doesn't belong on an NFL roster. I would have taken a bag of slick 'K' balls for him, but they managed to get Rumph...lol.

As for Vincent, he wasn't good, but what did anyone expect from an in seasons signing? Why not waste a few 100k to see if you can salvage a terrible defense?

I think the judge went really overboard. I mean that leaves him with 6 million and he had a prenup. I mean, wtf? THat 6 million goes a lot towards the child support for the next 15 years. I mean, that leaves him with nothing. I'm not going to lie, if i were him i would leave NY or any place i've been for just a little more money. He needs it.

Someone probably already posted this, but:

Could holdout Strahan be traded?
Posted: Friday August 03, 2007 11:25AM ET
Some Michael Strahan will retire, others think he will report, but an option that has gone overlooked is the option that could be most viable. The Washington Redskins already have expressed an interest, and other teams also would if the Giants decided to entertain offers. Over time it is expected that they will, but they have made it very clear that they will not restructure Strahan's contract, which could help end this stalemate. Now, the only thing certain is this: The longer Strahan's unholdout holdout lasts, the less likely it is that he will remain as a New York Giant.

If we do something stupid trade them a 3rd round pick or something stupid like that I'm going to lose it! I doubt this will happen, but you never know.

Oops I meant to erase Brad Johnson

I agree. I don't think there was any reason to not pick up Vincent when he became available. He was clearly an upgrade over Archuletta and any player who can block a game winner against the Boys is alright by me.

I do agree that Lavar inspired our team last year, by not playing for us.
I meant inspire the Giants to pummel us last season. I think you need to go back and look at the tape. Maybe he didn't come up with the big sack # s vs Jansen but we had to re-arrange our whole offense gameplan to negate his pass rush.

Re: Redskins Could Become a Suitor for Strahan?

There is NO WAY the skins pick up Strahan....they dont have enough money to give him a raise....I'm not sure of their cap situation....does anyone know?
Im thinking they have 3-4 mil max?

Strahan probably wants 5+, Rice wants the same...
on top of it....Strahan is UNDER CONTRACT...which means we'd have to give the Gmen something else....NO WAY!!
Gibbs will not trade picks at this point...he would have done that earlier in free agency.

We may be able to get Rice for 2.5-3 million if the sky falls....maybe....otherwise, give the money to a backup DE/DT and Cooley

Re: Redskins Could Become a Suitor for Strahan?

I really don't want to see the Skins sign Strahan or Rice. Both are old and declining, and both are just looking for a big payday. If they are really confident in our d-line they need to prove it.
