CC's knee is the real problem as it just wouldnt get better, the finger was just the icing on the cake for putting him on IR. I'm not certain that CC is done as a Redskin but I do think his spot on the team is no longer certain as it has been in the past.

We all love Cooley. He's been a great Redskin. But to be honest he isn't a great red zone target, a guy that can score double digit TD's and that's been the problem around here...not being able to score points. We need playmakers on offense and he doesn't fit the bill there. If he comes back then great. I kinda hope he does, perhaps he can play fullback, but I don't want him at TE anymore.

If healthy I think he will be back.

Cooley's days are numbered. If we can get rid of him next year that would be a good move. I will take a 3rd rounder for him.

Good luck with that happening.

If we can't get a 3rd rounder for him then I would opt to keep him. No sense in letting him walk without a decent compensation similar to what the Bears got for Greg Olsen. Cooley can still be productive for 3 to 4 more years.

Well, then how do we explain the last three years?

I guess you are forgetting that he had 77 receptions for almost 900 yards last year, and that was the year he really picked up on his blocking.

All that while giving Fred Davis some playing time, cause you all know we didnt run any two TE sets last year, lol.

In short, he is a valuable commodity, definitely worth a 3rd rounder to some team, possibly a 3rd and 4th. I still think we should keep him though.

Bruce needs to get that extension done for Davis.

Cooley is due $3.8 million next season, turns 30 in July and will have missed 20 games due to injury in the last three years. With emerging stud Fred Davis set to hit free agency after the 2012 season, the Redskins need to be saving money at the tight end position. Cooley's knee woes also appear chronic, making it doubtful he ever returns to the form he showed while becoming the Redskins' all-time leader in catches by a tight end.

He could still kick Romos ass

Sometimes injuries can be a blessing in disguise for a team... Alot of player step in and step up......look at the Chiefs.... Had bad injuries to their first team now rattled off 3 straight wins.

Your 100% right. Paulson stepped in on Sun. and played pretty awesome. He stepped up and made some good catches.

Mechanix544 · 10-26-2011, 12:23 PM

cooley will be back. mark it down. too many peoples favorite redskin, and the revenue he brings in is probably the highest on the team when it comes down to individual players. He will take a slight pay cut, but we will keep him.
