Listening to rumors this week really means nothing, I'm sure Gibbs has told his team not to listen to anything, any player is always mentioned with the redskins. They say we like a player and all of sudden every news source says we are going to trade the farm for that player. I can't wait till this is over and everyone is just like wow the Skins actually traded down or drafted 6th and Springs is still here. Gibbs is not dumb he is not going to give away everything for one player, the Duckett deal was bad but they were very worried about the backfield at that point.

My point is that JLC would not report a "rumor" that we offered Springs. Here's the quote:
"the team has shopped cornerback Shawn Springs to Detroit, which has the second overall pick, again in recent weeks"

JLC would only print that if he had a confirmed source from the skins or detroit. so if its a rumor, its being started by one of the teams. We went through this before w/the briggs deal. Gibbs said it was a rumor but then both teams confirmed a deal had been offered.

Yes, Gibbs & co. want to keep everybody guessing but if the Lions were willing to take Springs (& some cap relief as we wanted Denver to) & swap #1 picks, I don't think that was just smoke & mirrors.

This is the 2nd time springs has come up in trade talks.
