Kirk does that shit too and I can't stand it, not just our guys Bell always does it, these players now a days just seek that attention because they know they will get it.

"Here we go" or "Can't believe this" and they know everyone will be like OMG look what they just tweeted.

Reportedly Denver has made "multiple offers " for Cravens

a 2020 7th round pick and a 2019 7th round pick ?

That is unless the defense team do not want Cravens back on the team at all then the office might be forced to accept the low-ball offer.

We already have 2 7ths this year. Don't need a 3rd. A 6th this year and 7th next year, and I'd take it.

If Denver wants him bad enough they’ll eventually make an offer worth considering. Until then he’s a part of this team.

I usually don't post unfounded bullshit, but my brain came up with this little crazy conspiracy theory this morning.

1) Redskins and Broncos have been discussing Su'a Cravens. Su'a hired Peter Schaffer, a Denver based agent. No trade has been consummated yet.

2) Broncos have the 5th pick in the draft. They definitely could look at QB. But they did just sign Keenum.

3) Redskins are unabashedly discussing their desire to solve the RB position in this draft.

Could it be, just could it be, that Cravens has been discussed as a possible part of a trade to be consummated on draft day, such that if Saquon Barkley makes it to 5 where the Broncos will be on the clock, then the Redskins will ship Cravens and the 13th plus whatever else to Denver, for the right to move up to 5 and take Saquon.

Reminder this is unfounded bullshit. Do not take this seriously as anything more than spit in the wind. I'm not even sure I'd want this deal, I just found it curious that Cravens has been discussed and that we're basically broadcasting that we intend to do something at RB.

I would love barkley, but I just don't see them getting that for Cravens and the 13.. It would prob have to include a 1st next yr or our 2nd this yr.

This is interesting scenario.. I really don't like the idea of trading to move up but then I don't watch college football much so I don't know Barkley that much other than what everyone is saying. I suppose it depends on what we give up, after all, we still need to resolve LG and D-line issue.

He's got potential but there have been so many RB bust over the years, it is tough to trade a lot for one.

Interesting situation. I would not be upset in getting Saquon Barkley, but again, I like more "swings at the bat", so I hope the Cravens trade winds up just being added draft picks, albeit not just 7th round picks. They need to pony up something better than that IMO!

Schneed10 03-22-2018 12:05 PM

Re: Sua Cravens
 
I think I'm with you. We have needs at a number of other spots such that more swings of the bat is almost always the best solution.

But Barkley's skill set is definitely every bit as good as Adrian Peterson's was coming out of college. He's about as sure a thing as we've seen coming out of college. He would immediately become the guy every team has to game plan around when they faced us. That's definitely worth quite a bit. I think if we were to trade up, he would be the only guy I'd accept as potentially worth it, even though I'd prefer more swings of the bat.

I want to be careful that this idea doesn't get any legs as a rumor. It's just a fan's thought on a website.

You are better off staying away from unfounded BS. This is a terrible idea.
Barkeley, no matter how good, doesn't solve our needs at NT, or LG. maybe if it were a year where we had an abundance of picks like Cleveland does this year, than maybe, but barring Denver taking Sua for our 1st and 2 - 7ths, we need our picks more than Barkeley.

Schneed10 03-22-2018 12:11 PM

Re: Sua Cravens
 
I mean imagine the RPO threat this offense becomes if Saquon is the running threat. Smith ran RPOs with great success in KC and Gruden has stated he wants to incorporate some of it.

If Saquon is the guy threating the defense on the ground, I can guarantee they're crashing to him more often than not.

So bubble out Paul Richardson on a RPO bubble screen - if the defense crashes to Saquon get it outside to Richardson and let him break it to the house. With Trent as athletic as he is, you could send him out to wipe out one of the DBs.

Or stack your WRs to the right, put Jordan Reed wide to the left by his lonesome, and send Saquon to the side with all the WRs. If the defense crashes to Saquon, throw an out to Reed and let him try to win the one-on-one and take one to the house.

I can picture it so clearly in my head that it's making me feel like he's already a Redskin. I need to splash some cold water on my face.

Yea totally. He is the missing piece who would improve every aspect of the offense and it would bleed over to assisting the D as well in time of possession.

My gut reaction is pretty much the same as yours.

When logic comes back into the thought process, my biggest concerns are the cost of the trade, it would probably be expensive and the short length of RB careers generally. High cost and short career don't add up to good value.

That being said, he is the unique talent that makes such a consideration necessary.

So Denver’s trade for former Washington safety Su’a Cravens involves five draft picks, but the main one is a fifth-round pick that is going to the Redskins.

I guess that's about what I expected, probably a 4th round value overall, haven't checked the chart yet though.

It sucks how this all went down, but was probably a necessary move at this point. At least we got something.

Re: Sua Cravens
 
So they're moving up in the 4th and 5th rounds and getting back a 5th rounder?? That seems like a good deal. They felt Cravens could not come back here so they had to get something for him and they did. They're plenty of good players in the 5th round.

Cravens doesn't love football. Period. He'd rather be a drama queen than play football.
