my purposed trade: Brunell traded to seatle for a 5th round. The 5th round sent to tampa bay for Mark Clayton. Clayton to the skins

How can this be a done deal and no one has officially agreed to come out and say so?
We should probably stop talking about this (10 pages already) until something concrete is said.

Oh my goodness, why do you want Tampa's junk? The man couldn't overtake a crew of poor WR's, what makes you think he'll do well here.
How about this, get the draft pick and freakin draft a WR next year.

I think having him as a #4 receiver would be a huge pickup. He's better than Gabriele, and any other player you would get with a 5th rounder next year.

People are acting like it is.
I just find it amusing that we can talk for 10 pages about a rumor.

Well, I think we should give our guys a shot and not undercut them by bringing in another WR.
We are wreckless with our draft picks, and we should keep it.

I'm actually disappointed to hear it will likely be a 5th rounder we get for Brunell, so unless Seattle absorbs the majority of his salary and cap figures, then this is a dumb deal.

Brunell is a 3rd QB on our roster, other teams no that so don't expect a high pick, go to example Green, Trent.

I know we have said that here a bunch of times, but when was this officially said by a Redskins official?

Washington post:
Sources close to Brunell said the veteran had been told nothing about a trade being completed, or even close, after the game.

This smells like the Atlanta rumor to me.

That's what we do here...speculate on rumors (this from someone residing at "Camp Scrub," what the hell does he know anyway?). Seriously though, don't some of us truthfully find it at least a little entertaining to follow some of these rumors?

[SKINSnCANES]

listen guys, and this is as credible of a source that I could find. I simulated a year of Madden 08, and Brunell retires after this season. Therefore why wouldnt you want a draft pick for your number 3 QB, and a guy who is 37!!!

If we get to our number 3 QB we have more to worry about then who it is. How many #3 QBs get a draft for their trade value?

Amen. I agree very much. Not impressed with him last night.
