Top Corner or Star Back: Bailey Makes It Clear

[MTK]

Bottom line is Snyder did what he had to do to get the deal done. I highly doubt he tossed Bailey and the 2nd rounder on the bargaining table right off the bat.

On paper maybe we gave up a little too much. But does anyone seriously regret the deal? Would anyone have not made the deal if you were in Snyder's shoes?

You have a disgruntled star CB who wants out and he already turned down a fair offer and future negotiations do not look promising. You have a new head coach who loves to run the football and one of the top young RB's in the league is being dangled in front of you. What would you have done differently?

It was a ballsy deal that alot of owners/GM's would not have made.

I agree it was ballsy, but I would not have made the deal on those terms. I would have been patient, we had Champ franchised and didn't have to move him so soon. I think if we had a real GM then we could have gotten Portis without throwing in the pick. I agree that it looks like the pick is no big deal right now, but what about 2 yrs from now when this team has to be dismantled and we don't have any young talent because we kept trading away our picks for players that we can no longer afford?

I love the Skins as much as anyone, and I don't doubt that Danny's heart is in the right place but he's about as fickle as a fourteen yr old girl. He loves Norv, no he doesn't, he loves Schottenheimer, no he doesn't cuz he really loves Spurrier, but actually he really loves Gibbs. I love the Gibbs move but Danny's "plan" is to just throw money around and hope something sticks. I think Danny would be the best owner in all of sports if he just admitted what he doesn't know, which is football. So please put me in the Danny basher pile and let's get it on!
