Alright, how long before somebody starts a rumor that the Skins are going to trade for him?

This is old news. I have a funny story about this rumor from last week.

About four or five days ago while I was sitting at bar, I had of all people, a Cowboy fan, tell me they had just traded for Larry Johnson in exchange for a second round pick. He swore up and down he heard it on ESPN earlier that day. I responded, dude, no f*ckn way! Not for a second round pick, and not to the Cowboys! So I go, hey, if this is true I'll buy a round of shots for you and your boy "Lurch" (dude was ugly!) So everyone breaks out their BlackBerries (I'm a poor guy, so I don't own one!) and started looking on ESPN for the news.....nothing! I laughed his ass under the bar! I mean, I was loud! I think their thumbs were numb after all that damn scrolling they did. All he could do was start talking trash about how T.O. is better than Moss...blah, blah, blah....

I guess I would fall into the "poor guy" category as well since I don't own one.

GM to D and 12thperson and the rest of the class.

Re: Larry Johnson on the trading block?
 
Yeah, I'm sure they will trade him because the Michael Bennett, Kolby Smith duo can easily replace him. NOT!

However, If I were him I would want to be traded to a team that took care of their O-Line though. LJ is a great RB, but he won't be the same with the line they have going into this season, sorry.

Re: Larry Johnson on the trading block?
 
It would be something if we traded for him in exchange for cp and picks. Since al saunders it the offensive playcaller and he knows how good LJ is. I mean with Saunders calling the plays in kc LJ had a monster year.

Well, it only took a little over 2 hours. Thanks SBHT!

we should trade betts and cp for him

Yeah, there's an upgrade. Let's trade two starters for one.

Re: Larry Johnson on the trading block?
 
for once, a rumor hits the wire & we really don't have to worry about it as we're set at rb.

Only concern I have is if he's traded in the nfc. The g-men or the iggles could use him, but only the g-men would pony up the cash he wants. Detroit has just acquired a couple backs - T. Bell & Duckett- otherwise I'd see them as suitors. Green Bay?

RB is a position of need for only a few teams really. I don't know that LJ can get the contract he wants.

i heard the cowboys were one team that really wanted him. kind of scary

LJ is not going anywhere.

D'BOYZ 07-11-2007 12:34 PM

Re: Larry Johnson on the trading block?
 
First of all LJ isn't going anywhere KC official aren't that dumb.

Second for the guys that said trade CP and LB for him COME ON GET REALL do anyboy know something called a CAP you know bett's just got a new contract with a big Signing Bonus and CP still have a few years left of the lofty contract he signed so not only you'll be carring a lot of DEAD MONEY by trading this guys but if you add the type of contract and signing bonus LJ would ask no way he can come, beside with CP and Betts you don't need LJ.

now the Dallas rumor same thing there's no way he's comming to dallas 1st why trade what at least would be a high 1st round and other thigns and pay huge money to the guy when we probably have a high 1st round pick because of clevelands trade and we can go after McFadden next draft and get a fresh leg 21 year old back WAYYY CHEAPER.

We have contracts commign up of Newman,Ware, Spears, Colombo, Adams, Canty, Romo and others if we want to have them back specially Ware,newman and Romo they ain't gonna come cheap so you can't go out an pay a RB 8 mill per year.

If something were to happen, IMO Dallas would be the place for him to go. They already have 2 first round picks in '08. with one of them being from Cleveland it should be pretty high. Sounds like pretty good trade bait to me.

saden1 07-11-2007 04:43 PM

Re: Larry Johnson on the trading block?
 
It puzzles me why Cowboy fans think so highly on Newman. With they way they talk about him you would think he's a top 5 CB. He is no better than Carlos Rogers and that's not saying much.

D'BOYZ 07-11-2007 05:00 PM

Re: Larry Johnson on the trading block?
 
Saden Man you've have really gotten Loco watch him play before you come with a so bad remark Carlos r PLEASEEE.

You know in 2005 Newman was the only CB not to give a TD the hole year last year he gave 2 tell me who else does that.

He's a true Shotdown corner the reason his stats aren't high enough it's because they don't throw his way 2 much his only bad point it's that because he locks in the WR he doesn't see a lot of the short passes so he doesn't get as much int as you liked but that should change with the new defense.

but Newman is the most important player in Dallas defense, yes more important than Ware, and he's in the top 5 CB's in the league even if he hasn't gotten the recognitions he deserves it's like S.taylor didn't get recognition for many year even if he's more of a highlight player than newman.

Man Larry Johnson is full of himself. If he goes to another squad he will be a bum. I don't want Larry Johnson. I saw him college and now in the league. Hell Derrick Blaylock was a beast in KC. I want Larry Johnson to leave Kansas City, because after that he will be humbled!

I dont like Newman but to say that he is not better than Rogers is just plain stupid.
