Briggs deal on life support
<Apr. 27> Drew Rosenhaus will make one more frantic push to get Briggs traded, and the Redskins will be the key target, ESPN.com's John Clayton reports.
The Redskins' chances of trading out of the sixth pick appear dead, particularly if Brady Quinn is gone. The Dolphins have apparently decided not to trade up to No. 6, even if Quinn is there.
JLC says 50/50, and Clayton describes the deal as "on life support".
We will all just have to wait and see! Bahhhh!
I for one am excited about picking at 6. We don't need Briggs. I would literally cry if we do this deal. We wonder why our players don't give it their all...what must Rocky and Lemar be thinking?? What were Rock Cartwright and Nemo thinking when we brought in Duckett and didn't play him??
I'll tell you what...no one can stay motivated every day if it becomes apparent that no matter what you do, you will not get an opportunity.
Rocky was a leader in special teams tackles. Holdman was a matador and he still can't get on the field.
Rock Cartwright rushed for over 100 yards in the only game where he touched the ball 10 times....yet we trade away our 3rd round pick this year just to rent Duckett for 20 carries in a year??? That makes NO sense, I don't care how you spin it.
How does ST fell when we wouldn't renegotiate his contract, but offer Arch a big deal.
What in the world is wrong with Cerrato...just look at him. He even looks retarded.
Duckett is in Chicago and our 2nd and 3rd round picks are in someone elses pocket?? and what do we have to show for it? Nothing....now they are trying to trade their way out of a potential pro bowl player just to recover the picks we threw away.
Here is just the only problem with your quote: Duckett now plays for Detroit and if we trade this pick down we can still ge a pro bowl caliber player.
