Gardner and Brown

PSUSkinsFan21 · 03-23-2005, 11:58 AM

According to ESPN Insider, Brown is likely going to the Broncos (the Broncos have told people around the league that he will choose them.....for whatever that's worth). I'd post a link for you all, but it's a pay site, so it wouldn't work.

Seattle is the most likely to trade for Gardner now that they know that they have two third round picks and two fourth round picks (they acquired compensatory picks). The Redskins are apparently asking for a third rounder, and while about 5 teams are interested in paying that price, most are not willing to risk spending a third rounder on a guy who may test free agency after next season (Gardner has been unwilling to agree to long-term deals). Seattle, however, may take the risk sitting on 2 third-rounders.

My reactions:
1. I would still like to get Brown......I think he'd be very effective rotating in and out of the line.
2. I'm actually pleased if the Skins get a third rounder for Gardner. That's really the best I thought they could do.

Assuming they get a 3rd for Gardner, anybody have any thoughts on whether you'd like to see them trade the two thirds for a second?

Why would the Broncos want half the damn d-line of the browns? At least one of these guys sucks, and they obviously don't play well together.

Keep them both.

I like depth more than the risk of moving up. Unless there is some Cooley type player that is still avilable or some first rounder that has fallen down.

What the f%&$ do the Broncos know? Are we to believe he left and said he was going to sign with them but only after visiting other teams first? He clearly was not happy with either theirs or our offer so it sounds fishy to me.

Let them get the third before talk about trading it.

Redskins_P · 03-23-2005, 12:28 PM

I could care less where Gardner goes. Just get him out of here so we can get some more cap space.

As for Brown, if he wants to go the Broncos, then fine. I wasn't all that crazy about getting him anyways.

I definately think the 'Skins should hold onto both 3rd rounders. This year's draft doesn't have stars, but it has a lot of depth at DE, DT, OT, OG and CB. We should keep the picks and go for depth.

F@#% Brown, first he says, he's broke it down to two teams, the Skins and the Broncos, and then over the weekend he goes to Jacksonville, and suppose to make a trip to Seattle, he's toying with us...we were very kind Gibb's and Co., went out to visit him, brought him in to Redskin Park, treated him like a king....and now he's acting like he's Julius Peppers....he's not....if he don't come to the skins...and goes to Jax, or Den., then I hope a few more injured riddle seasons.......I gone

TheMalcolmConnection · 03-23-2005, 12:59 PM

If people signed with us just because we were nice, we'd sign just about everybody in the league. I AM with you on the fact that he is definitely JUST about the money. That being said, it seems that's how it is around the league these days with the exception of a select few. Toy with us all he wants, I would like to see him sign a one-year deal if anything, or a multi-year modest deal.

I dont want him to come now. He is acting like he just had a pro-bowl season.

I think Brown would be a good addition for a cheap, one year contract (a la Daryl Gardner), but I wouldnt pay him anything more than that.

As for the two 3rd rounders...personally I would like to see us use one of them to get Matt Jones, the soon-to-be stud from Arkansas. Hes huge. Hes fast. He will find a place to succeed on the team, whether at WR or at game-breaking TE. Pleeeeeeeeeeease draft him Skins!

Daseal · 03-23-2005, 01:30 PM

If we draft a WR in the first, forget about it. We already have too many!

TheMalcolmConnection · 03-23-2005, 02:04 PM

Most definitely. I'd be interested to see who stays and goes if we DO get a WR in the draft.

Matt Jones himself must be logging multiple usernames to sell himself to the team and it's fans. Talk about stuffing the ballot box. Go away Matt Jones! Go away!

Seriously... I hadn't heard his name until recently and only on this website.
