Re: Cowboys cut T.O.

Snyder has to be salivating and that is scary.

I am not sure that Campbell is a strong enough of a personality to deal with this guy. I also do not think they should risk alienating Hall. Even if Hall and Campbell publicly said that they wanted him I would be leary.

This really scares me because Owens still has enough talent for any team to justify signing him.

The only guarantee with Owens is that at some point he will wear out his welcome and your team will suffer greatly.

Why would Snyder be salivating? Snyder wanted nothing to do with T.O. the last time he was on the market and we needed a WR more then than we do now. What makes you think Snyder would change his mind on T.O. and go after him now?

The last time he was on the market, JOe Gibbs was running the show & he definitely did not want any part of To. I hope that Snyder isn't even thinking about it, but maybe he'll call Rosenhaus just to jack the price up for whoever signs him!

Something to add to this speculation that Florio didn't mention:
VINNY DRAFTED TO!

In fact Vinny mentioned it first in an interview once as his greatest find.

Did Snyder want nothing to do with Owens or was that Gibbs?

Last year they wanted to give 2 #1 picks for Chad Johnson. Luckily, that didn't go down.

T.O. is better than Johnson and does not cost any picks.

Had to have been Gibbs. He had no patience for foolishness back in the 80s-90s (just ask Theismann), so he sure as h*ll didn't have it a few years ago.

Does T.O. Make Sense for Skins? - Redskins Insider

"Whenever Rosenhaus has a disgruntled client, Redskins Park phone numbers are among the first he dials, league sources said. When Owens became available in 2006, former coach Joe Gibbs kept him out of the building because of his concerns about stirring strife in the locker room, team sources said. But Gibbs is back in NASCAR and Snyder and Cerrato still like those big receivers. Their attempts to provide big targets for quarterback Jason Campbell - and more options for Coach Jim Zorn as he installed his version of a spread offense - did not turn out well in 2008. Washington used its first three draft picks on wideouts Devin Thomas and Malcolm Kelly, and pass-catching tight end Fred Davis".

The paragraph above scares the crap out of me and I think it is 100% true.
