Offer made on Chad (1st rd '08, conditional 3rd rd '09)

Chad Johnson won't be a locker room problem anywhere outside of Cincy. But trading two picks for one guy tells me 1) The Skins have an awful lot of confidence in Jim Zorn and 2) all the talk about learning was just that, talk.

This smells like a panic move, since the Giants won the SB and we beat the Giants then we can win the SB. But the transitive property works in math, not football.

Best move in the end, keep the picks and find a big body in the draft. Contrary to popular opinion, solid guys can be found in the later rounds too. Overpaying for Chad Johnson is so 2003 Dan Snyder.
