I think that you got a lil confused there bud.

I was not confused, I responded to an ambiguous sentence. Thanks for noticing, pal.

Did anyone see the cooley interview? he basically said I don't like it here.

Cooley is a tradeable commodity at this time next year. He's absolutely going to be here in 2009 though, that's not up for debate.

He was talking about JT not liking it here. Not Cooley.

Phew, good to get that cleared up.

I figured as much, but I do think my boy needs to really have a nice year in receiving this year. This is probably the wrong thread for this though.

I am glad Cooley has kept a low profile this offseason thus far. As one of the team leaders, what the Redskins are doing this offseason seems pretty objectionable, but good for the long term health of the franchise.

Yeah, he actually came off as somewhat of a jerk in that interview. And he said that he didn't "fit in at all" in Washington. With an attitude like that, perhaps we are not missing much having him gone. Except for missing 2 draft picks, that is.

I like Boss but I would take Cooley in a NY min!

You're talking about JT saying he did'nt like it here, not Cooley, right?

Let's get it straight...Jason Taylor said he did not like the Redskins in Cooley's blog.

JT needed to go especially for 3.5 sacks with an 8.5 mil salary. It gives us 8.5 mil in cap to sign Evans, and Crowell (LB from Buffalo) to fill in as a 1-2 year starter. Then draft a OT at 13, but if Oher or Smith are gone we trade down and draft Alex Mack.

I agree. I was excited to see what Taylor could do along side of Haynesworth, but it is not meant to be. Also, it sounds like we are already going to have a guy we will need to let freelance in Haynesworth. Allowing Taylor to freelance too would spell trouble.

So, with the cap room get:
Evans - 1.5 mil
Daniels - 1.2 mil
Kendall - 1.5 mil
Crowell - ? (address LB)
Willis - ? (address OT)
Vet Receiver
Draft OT or LB 1st

By the way, the Sports Reporters are turning into the radio version of JLC. All they could do when the news of JT's release came about was to remind everyone repeatedly how stupid the team was for getting him in the first place. Granted, the team now looks stupid for having traded for JT, but they failed to mention how the team has the cap room to plug some holes (something that they were screaming about when AH was signed). Not to mention how they proceeded to talk about the pathetic Nats. Once again, I miss Riggo and his crew, they would've slammed the team (well at least Sheehan) but also would've talk about who the team can go after or how this changes the team's offseason plans.
