Chris Cooley signs contract extension!!

[Lady Brave]

Hallelujah and thank you Snyder for getting this done!

6 Years, $14 million to sign, worth up to $30 million in total money (including the $14 million bonus).

That's a friggin bargain for a player of his caliber. Way to go Skins. See what happens when we're proactive with resigning our core guys? First Betts, now Cooley. Two key offensive cogs, both at a bargain price.

Two good moves by the FO ... my first thought was that the Skins got a deal (of course Cooley has a calculation to make too, sign now and get the $14 million guarenteed or risk injury for the possibility of a few million more later). My second thought was that I hope Chris signed a prenup with the future Christy Cooley ...

He's a very nice player. You know Gibbs will always have himself a good tight end to block and catch. It's a good sign when your own draft picks warrant long term contracts.

Thank God. Next on that list: Sean Taylor

Although I don't think Taylor will happen until next year at this time. And if he has the breakout season G.Williams is predicting, waiting until next year may be worth his while.

Welcome Hell for You. Glad to see that Cooley signed, can't wait to see what kind of season he has now. 10+ tds?

This is just awesome. Cooley is a REDSKIN!!! He is a throwback Redskin. He would've fit in with Riggo, Theismann, and the Hogs!! Great to have him in in the fold for the long haul.

Great news good to see Cooley will be in the burgundy and gold for the foreseeable future. I'm really happy that the Skins got this one done and at a reasonable price. Great deal for both sides. Hopefully he continues to improve.

Sweet. It's nice to get some good news. Now let's trade Brunell and roll into the regular season.

So even after you got to see Palmer ripping it up the other night you still think its a good idea to cut Brunell?

[skinsnut]

This is perfect!!!

On another note, this should put to rest any additional signing or talk of moving brunell since it would cost us cap space we probably dont have anymore

[Longtimefan]

That's one deal I'm glad they got done before the end of the season. Way to go FO.......There's no way I wanted to see Cooley hit the FA market, or having to use the tag, this is one of our best FO moves in a while, at least from a long range standpoint.....Hail!!!
