Perhaps all this stuff- Briggs rumors, meeting with Russell, ra ra ra... maybe it's just symptoms of a new mindset in our front office. Be more disciplined, be more thorough, don't smother every big name on the market with cash, bluff a little, don't mortgage off draft picks (we haven't given up any so far this offseason). I don't know. Wishful thinking I guess

Very wishful, we have no pick's because of thier lack of a belief in drafting players, and now this whole thread is about us getting rid of the 1 pick we do have.:frusty:

Now the funniest comment I have heard yet is Gibbs talking about how all the real talent is in the second round, as if he's going to find some gem after the first round. I would love to continue typing but I just hit the floor with laughter.

Yeah, that is funny. Is he pretty much just telling everyone we're screwed?? We don't have any 2nd, 3rd, or 4th round picks, but that's where the gems are?? WTF??

saw on espn john clayton reported that this trade most likely next week

So much for the Gibbs kind of guy's plan. Any player who would rather sit out than play for 7.2 million on a SB contender in my book is a loser, just the kind of guy we need. And rest assured this trade is going to happen.

The Three Stooges couldn't perform worse at GM if the team was owned by Abott and Costello.

Unessecarily cynical, yet accurate.

We don't have any to give away. But apparently the possibility of giving the Bears the 6th pick and allowing them to get someone like Landry and probably throwing in other stuff as well is not yet dead so just give it some time, the offseason is still young.
