He just picked off Sanchez at the 1 yard line and went the other way for some yards.

Skins shoulda, coulda, woulda, kept if that staff knew what they were doing....

Show me a Head Coach who has never blown a player call... and I'll show you a man who's never coached in the NFL.

No one bats 1000.

Instead of racing to be the first to say "shoulda woulda," why not congratulate a man on a job well done? As I said in the other thread, I wish Tryon the best, especially since he's playing against a team (or more accurately a head coach) that I do not care for.

That pick might end up being the difference in the game. Go Tryon, go!

I, along with a lot of others, did not get that move to begin with. What did they have to gain by moving him? I mean honestly.

The roster spot that allowed us to sign Ryan Torain is what we gained by trading Tryon. I don't recall any resistance movements at the time.

It wasn't exactly a movement but a lot of us were confused. I don't think its necessary to ship out our 3rd corner to get a roster spot. What about the 4th corner? 5th corner? 6th?

remember this is the kid that DGreen was tutoring... Green had high praise for Tryon.

Tryon had asked to be traded, IIRC. I agree that we should have kept him, but that's the reason why we let our #3 and not our #6 go.

We definitely could have kept him. It was in that article where Tryon was talking about the differences between the Colts and Skins. He said Allen called him in to chat and asked him what he really wanted at this point in his career. Tryon said something like "to play on a team that has a real shot," and five minutes later he was traded.
