Ocho Cinco In B&G

Not sure how I would feel about this....But it's intriguing.

Ocho Cinco - Redskins Insider

Sure, Johnson hasn't come right out and said publicly that he wants out, but the spectacle he is making of himself is clearly intended to put pressure on the Bengals to do something with him, as to this point Coach Marvin Lewis has said he will not trade the highly talented but enigmatic wideout.

Don't surprised to the see the Redskins as major players in the sweepstakes to land him should the Bengals shop him around. He has been discussed by owner Daniel Snyder and executive vice president Vinny Cerrato at length and his name came up frequently in conversations with coaching candidates, league sources said, expecting the Redskins to make a concerted push if he hits the market

There are already pictures of Johnson in a Redskins jersey floating around the internets and while at first, a few weeks back with Joe Gibbs still at the helm, I didn't think much of those pictures, after doing more homework I don't think it's a coincidence. While I would never accuse the Redskins - or any NFL team for that matter - of tampering, it's no secret around the league which teams covet which players.

The Skins will overpay either him or Randy Moss.

I'm sure he'd get a huge payday here. The thought of giving Campbell that kind of target is very intriguing though. Johnson, Moss, El. Wow. I'd put those three up against New England's receivers anyday.

the problem with your comparison is that we don't have Brady, and that is not a knock on campbell.

In this day and age who don't you have to overpay?

To even further the discussion, which head coach prospect could best deal with the high maintenance Ocho Cinco? (If I remember correctly, Mooch clashed with T.O. and I don't think Fassel is a players coach). Gibbs wouldn't even wanted to deal with Ocho's baggage...

Delicious.

Bring him in. But how long before he yells at JC on the sidelines if he misses a deep ball or something like that.

The one thing I always loved Gibbs for was the moral behavior of his teams on and off the field. He was a real winner in that area above all.

I don't think that CJ has to worry about Campbells deep passes, I think that JC proved this year that he has a very good deep ball. It would be the slants and out patterns that I think are the problem.

That is a concern I have against Chad Johnson coming here as well. Jason Campbell is not at the level of Carson Palmer or Jon Kitna when CJ is not getting enough throws his way or the Skins start on a losing skid Johnson might become a disruption.

If Gibbs was still here I do not think that would be the case but no one knows how Jim Zorn will handle problem players.

If we're going to overpay for someone I would rather see CJ here over Moss.

Word. I have a ton of respect and admiration for Gibbs, but his teams are boring. I wanna have some fun man. He's one of the most popular players in the league, and he's got personality. The more I think about it, the more for it I think I would be.

I would prefer Moss but the problem with getting Moss is that the Skins are not enough of a consistent winner to keep him from starting to complain. CJ would also be good but like a previous post mentioned, he will not be happy when JC keeps missing him when he's open.

What I really wish is that the Skins could develop their own talent at cheaper prices rather than always overpaying for someone else's talent that just had a huge year.
