**Last paragraph of the article**

Says Snyder has been impressed with Michael Strahan and should he become available, he could pursuit him.

This is by far the dumbest thing Snyder could ever. Our D-Line is already suffering from aged players. Why add another? He's 35 and could ask for a hell of a lot of money.

Very true....the 'Skins should start looking for a solid back up to Ladell Betts...looks like Portis and his gimpy ass knee will be an issue all season.

Maybe we can get TJ Duckett for 3rd and 4th round draft picks! :smashfrea

I don't care for Strahan either.. Old and has missed a lot of games the past 2 years..

All season?

Someone remind me, how long has training camp been going on? Oh yeah, three days.

I bet it is burning Portis up that his has missed the first few days of camp.

He's fine...he's likely not even injured.

This makes me curious as to what the Giants want as far as compensation would go. Strahan said he wanted to play for a contender. I doubt he'd want to come to DC.

That's BS. Strahan wants to be paid.

Redskins won't sign Strahan unless Strahan wants to stick it to Coughlin for a lesser than 4 million style 1 year contract. He's 35 recently divorced hoping for some help. Turns out he'll end up jobless til late preseason....

dmek25 · 08-02-2007, 06:01 AM

like i said in a previous thread, he wants 5-7 million per year. for three years. no way

much worse than that IMO. When Deion was here, he played well, but he was no longer prime time & teams threw his way rather than to champ's side. Strahan is old & coming off injuries, I'm not even sure he would be able to take Daniels' starting job.

I can't see Daniels even competing with Strahan. Strahan's not done. His production probems have been caused by injury, not his motor.

With all due respect...are kidding me? Neon Deion sucked. I can't recall anything he did that was worthy of the freakin' 8 million he stole from the Redskins. I cringe at the mere mention of him in burgandy & gold.

Deion did play well here. Was he worth the $$? Probably not, especially since Brian Mitchell was shown the door to clear up the cap room for him. But that's Snyder's fault. Deion took what was offered to him. You can't blame him for that.

Although I believe Strahan could go somewhere and make a bit of a difference. I dont think he is the player that he wants to get paid to be. He is asking for way to much for someone not just on the downside of his career but nearly at the bottom of the hill. he wants to much and is to much of a risk. But if there is a team that likes these old players who only stick around for a year or two and are a shell of the player they were it is Dan Snyder and the Redskins.

I agree NO to Strahan!
