Our FO should be in serious shop mode, but we all know that's just too intelligent.

and if they were in serious "shop mode", half the fans would be criticizing Snyder for buying when we don't know who the coach will be.

I may sound like a Snyder apologist, I am probably closer than most on this board, but what fries me, is no matter what move is made easily a third of this board and 90% of the mediots are going to be criticizing him for the action or inaction.

Considering that the trade deadline has past all there is to do right now is wait and see what happens this offseason. I just hope that there will be something to cheer about between now and then.

Trade deadline is 4:00 ET and is not complete as of now.

After spending the better part of 24 hours texting, e-mailing and calling people around the league, my enthusiasm for an unusually active trade deadline is waning.
It just doesn’t seem like there is a whole lot cooking. A lot of talk but not much action, which is the norm. There will be a few deals for sure, and there’s always a surprise out there, but I’m not sure it’s going to be blockbuster city. (Not that I ever was, but you’re always hoping for interesting stories and developments, and who doesn’t like trade talk?)
Anyway, the Eagles, Patriots and Ravens are among the teams looking to be buyers, while the Chiefs, Bucs and Raiders are among those most interested in selling. After the [URL="http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d8138ba07&template=with-video-with-comments&confirm=true"]season-ending injury[/URL] to NT [B]Kris Jenkins[/B], the high-spending Jets are looking at options, and I’d rate Chiefs DT [B]Glenn Dorsey[/B] as someone who they have at least a slim chance of acquiring. While Cleveland DE [B]Corey Williams[/B] is generating some interest, the Browns continue to rebuff all overtures for [B]Josh Cribbs[/B] (and the calls have continued to come).
The Rams have received calls on RB [B]Steven Jackson[/B] but are adamant about not trading him, according to a league source. But franchise-tender safety [B]O.J. Atogwe[/B] might be worth an interested team making a call on.
As I reported Sunday morning on “NFL GameDay Morning,” the Bills are steadfast that they have no interest in trading WR [B]Terrell Owens[/B]. As of Monday, only one team had called, with only cursory interest (the club called Buffalo about another player and then inquired briefly about Owens’ availability at the end of the call, according to a source).
But, we’ll see.



Still a few hours to go, and maybe we get something meaty before the 4 p.m. ET deadline.

I stand corrected let me rephrase. uhum (clearing my throat)

[Rephrase]The trade deadline is just about up and I doubt that we will be active. All there is to do right now is wait and see what happens this offseason. I just hope that there will be something to cheer about between now and then.[/Rephrase]

Re: Trade Deadline Approaching; Any Moves?
 

If the Jets miss on Rodgers and Dorsey, any chance they would be interested in Anthony Montgomery as a nose? Would seem like a good match all around. Apologies if that was mentioned earlier in the thread.

I was thinking the same thing. We need some picks.

Probably not as an NT

but it's already passed so not sure why I replied

Re: Trade Deadline Approaching; Any Moves?
 

I for one am glad that the trade deadline has passed without our mortgaging more of our future. Perhaps Vinny has spent his last Redskins draft pick.

Re: Trade Deadline Approaching; Any Moves?
 

Only deadline trades:

Eagles gave WR Brandon Gibson and a 2010 5th-round pick to the Rams for the near-bust LB Will Witherspoon since Gaither is hurt and Trotter can't cover anyone. Witherspoon is currently suffering with a bruised tailbone but will start against us. :D

Panthers gave a 2010 5th-round pick to the Chiefs for DT Tank Tyler. Who? :sleep:

Re: Trade Deadline Approaching; Any Moves?
 

Trade Snyder and Cerrato for a case of Fritos.

Re: Trade Deadline Approaching; Any Moves?
 

Anymore moves after the Redskins picked up Levi Jones and a running back? I’m not familiar with the history of the running back. Levi was a first round draft choice and he at least strengthens the offensive line.

Just those two moves and we cut our fill-in punter to re-sign Wynn.
