Report: Cooley to IR today

[Lotus]

I mostly agree with both Ruhskins and BigHaired.

I think we look to see what we can get for folks like Moss, Rogers, Portis, or Campbell. We try to do this first.

Failing this, precisely because Cooley is our best player he might make the best trade to stockpile some picks. His injury status could hurt his trade value, though. We can't trade him cheaply, we should look to get a first and another later pick. With those picks we theoretically could upgrade the entire right side of the o-line, for example. This may be of greater value to us than two fine tight ends.

Even with two tight end sets, how are we going to get full value out of both Cooley and Davis? If they both have 65 catches, our wide receivers will see few balls.

As for Haynesworth, I don't see that trade happening. If someone else wanted to pay him as much as he is getting, they would have done so when we signed him.
