Cooley???????? Is that the best you can do? You homers act like he dominated. He was just another sad, putrid, overhyped part of our crappy offense.

Cooley didn't dominate, nor was he "sad" or "putrid". He may have been overhyped by Redskins fans desperately searching for a "Redskins guy"-throwback kind of player, but he was very solid for a rookie, regardless of whether he played in crappy offense-- which he did.

It's certainly debatable whether he was worth trading away this year's 2nd round pick, but he was definitely one of the few bright spots in an otherwise dismal year offensively.

I think a lot of people got excited by Cooley's potential, and whenever he was able to make a good play-- and he did make a few this past season-- it just elevated the enthusiasm some of us have for him, particularly since there was little else to be excited about.

He has a long way to go before he becomes a "dominate" player-- and maybe he never will-- but I think a big part of the reason that people are so excited about him is the fact that he is a genuine, humble, likeable guy-- much like Skins fan favorites of the past.

I don't think Cooley is an all pro or anything, but there were only 4 TEs that had more TDs than him, Bubba Franks, Tony Gonzales, Daniel Graham and Antonio Gates (he was tied with Marcus Pollard, Alge Crumpler, Jason Witten and Jeremy Shockey), personally I think that pretty good company as far as TEs go
