Cooley for Marshall?????

I know I know, I already brought it up in another thread. But how great would this trade be? Their TE Scheff is in the dog house as well as Marshall with MC Douche. I think they would jump at the chanced to grab Cooley for Marshall, allowing them to either trade their TE or cut him. Marshall would behave under shanny, we finnally get our Pro Bowl WR, while we Develop our 3rd yr guys who are showing alot of potential, Davis fills right in where cooley left. And we focus completly on our needs in the draft (OL!!!) Your thoughts?

Gotta love Skins fans, some are sick of the splashy moves, some can't wait for the next one.

Re: Cooley for Marshall?????

I'd really like to see what Shanahan would do with 2 pass catching TE's. Imagine Moss in the slot. Thomas and Kelly at #1 and #2, and Davis and Cooley going out for routes. Not to mention the availability for a RB to go out.

Plus we need OL, OL, OL. What I have read though is that (Rumor mill) Shanahan likes 1 pass catching TE and 1 blocking TE. Cooley and Davis are not blocking TE's so one might end up gone. Yoder is not that great as a blocking TE in my oppinion. I guess I could stomach losing Cooley if Shanahan felt he needed the WR. So long as they get their blocking TE.

Again why not T.O. if you so hung up on a big WR? He's a FA. No trades. No draft picks. Plus Shanahan tried to get him while in Denver.

That trade makes no sense for the Broncos. If they trade Marshall it will be for picks.

I prefer to imagine all of that minus Cooley and with a pro-bowl Left Tackle or RB drafted using the pick we got in return for trading Cooley No one has won the Super Bowl because they had 2 elite TEs.

Hell no!!! Having 2 tight ends like Cooley and Davis on the field at the same time will be great. We have young receivers that are just starting to contribute and with a lot less attitude than Marshall

I agree that Cooley and Davis on the field together will be a dynamic combo. With Devin Thomas and Malcolm Kelly starting to show promise, the last thing that I would want for Cooley is a diva WR setting a poor example for Kelly, Thomas, and Marko Mitchell.

Re: Cooley for Marshall?????

Any talk of new WR's/TEs is just crazy. We need an oline, after that is addressed we need quality backups for the oline. After that is addressed, we need defensive back 7, and a qb for the future. Giving up depth at a critical position such as TE, just cuz we have 2 very good ones is crazy. Bringing in new WR's when ours have potentially untapped potential under a new coaching staff is just crazy.
Ah skins fans, craziness abounds!

apparently this "oline" thing helps keep your qb upright and gives your running back holes to run through. Sort of like an engine in a car, it makes things work, but who needs that.....

Long ago, in days forgotten, a tale was told, one of qb's standing upright, and rb's passing the scrimmage line before the evil hordes could beset them. These tales told of mythical beasts, called Hogs, that kept the beasts of lb's and dt's from thrusting beyond that point of scrimmage. Victory's were many and knightly tales are told to this day of the mythical oline beasts named Hogs.

Rumors abound, but one has heard of a place called "the draft". Many winds swirl in and around this mystical place, where warriors are found and picked. From these warriors, it is said, one may find a true Hog, if you are wise in your selection. Careful though for there are many seers that say to seek the qb, or relinquish your rights to search in this "draft" for the fast and sleek of the WR animals. These Hogs are difficult beasts to train, but once found the legend assures that they will bring victory and peace to the land for many many years

We've already started the process. In an abbreviated summary, you trade a "Vinny" for an "oline".
