Re: Redskins Trade Jeremy Jarmon

Bad trade. Why trade for a WR on the downside of his career? Clear salary cap space?

I don't think it is a bad trade. They simply traded two "meh" players amongst themselves.

Now what is interesting is that the Skins made a trade like this during one of the busiest weeks in NFL history. Why do this trade now? Shouldn't we being using our resources on bigger fish this week? Or this all to step up something bigger?

Not sure we needed yet another WR but if Jarmon did not fit into our plans why not get someone who was productive last year and someone we can also cut at no expense?

Larger roster for TC.

Weak position.

Need for competition.

"Dual mandate"

I'm not as surprised as some others.

Re: Redskins Trade Jeremy Jarmon

Traded for a guy who probably wasn't going to make the final cut here anyway.

Win.

The problem people have with this is that Jarmon was selected in the supplemental draft equating to more wasted draft picks.

Can we all look at it this way.....

Your refering to a different regime, a regime that was allowed to 10yrs to pull those types of crappy moves.

I just wish we all could find a way to seperate the two. Allen has been doing a fine job so far. As a matter of fact I was actually happy to hear that the Skins were well below the CAP and was supprised at how far since usually we are worried about how they will finagle the contracts they already have in order to make room. Then the new CBA comes along and they have to spend a certain % of each dollar on players I figured this will be fun to see how they find a way to spend all the dollars.

Re: Redskins Trade Jeremy Jarmon

Whose to say Gaffney will make the final cut either? I'd rather we traded Jarmon for some line help. Good teams build from the lines out, and so far all of our offensive moves have involved skill players, while we still have effectively the same offensive line from last year.

Re: Redskins Trade Jeremy Jarmon

Gaffney could start tomorrow if there was a game. I think he's got a solid shot to make the roster, much more so than JJ.

The OL moves will come. I don't see hardly any OL moves going on around the league. They'll start to happen later on in the week.

Re: Redskins Trade Jeremy Jarmon

I understand that Jarmon wasn't an ideal fit in the 3-4 but I'd hoped he could stay as a nickel DE. He has a lot of upside & like Smoot said he did whatever was asked. If he stays healthy he can start for a no. of years.

Gaffney is a solid vet WR, I just would hate to see him take a spot from one of the rookies before they've had enough of a chance. Training camp will be intense at that position.

We're being introduced to the new and improved method of rebuilding. Our young receivers psyche is already spinning.
