I don't know why I waited until 2011 to purchase a Chris Cooley #47 Redskins jersey. I should have bought his jersey much sooner than that. Cooley was an exceptional talent. In 2004, Joe Gibbs was considering drafting Kellen Winslow II in the 1st round but choose Sean Taylor instead and drafted Cooley in the 3rd. Bill Parcells said Cooley was too small to play TE but Cooley proved a lot of GMs wrong with his strong play in the NFL and 2 pro bowl appearances. What a true Redskin. He's going to be miss. I wish him the absolute best if he ends up with any other team except Dallas.
