Stew Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Maybe we should do a 3 way deal that involves Detroit...Brunell to Atlanta, Ducket back to Washington, Detroit gets a Falcon draft pick...lol why would we want Duckett? Didnt you see him fumble on the 1 yard line going in for a td last week? Say no to TJ Duckettstain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan T. Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I used to support Brunell, including last year, but he's just done. His career is over. As a starter? I agree. The pounding of a long season takes its toll on him physically and his play deteriorates as a result. Also, I think the loss of the great mobility he had earlier in his career has hurt his overall play. As a backup? I disagree. I think he's well suited to be a backup at this point in his career, with spot starts should Campbell be unable to go due to injury. He plays not to make mistakes, which is pretty much all you want a backup to do. He's got years and years of pressure game experience, so his sphincter won't pucker up if he gets that sudden call from the sidelines. He's got a level-headed disposition, which Jason Campbell would do well to learn from. And by all accounts, he's forged a great relationship with Campbell, which shouldn't be underestimated at this early stage of Campbell's career.

Cooley4President Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 It's about time we trade worthless players for draft picks as opposed to trading draft picks for worthless players...good move! I agree, I like the change in the FO philosophy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murdering Purple Turds Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Just because Brunell has the letters QB doesn't mean he is one anymore. You could put, "My Left Shoe - QB". It doesn't mean my left shoe can pass. Trade him for ANYthing and give me a 3rd string CFL'er for all I care to replace Brunell on the roster.

TheLongshot Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Try again, man. It just worked for me. I don't know what the deal was, but WinAmp didn't like it. WMP seems to like it better. Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin11 Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 The only way the trade makes sense is if the falcons send us a GOOD guard. The way I see it, Campbell won't make it to the bye week with the current rubbish we have on our roster. Without a good LG, we are going to go through backup QBs like a hot lightsaber through melted butter on the surface of the sun. If we can get a starting-caliber guard, then this deal is a no-brainer. However, If ATL is only offering low-round draft picks, then we need to stay away from them... we would just be trading a solid Backup QB in a make-or-break year for Joe Gibbs for some player who probably wont even make our 2008 practice squad. It would just be stoopid. Our o-line is that bad. We only had 1 sack on the 1st string. QB gets hit in almost every play, get over it. The pats line was totally dominated by the titans. Brady fumbled 1, threw 2 picks, and got sacked 3 times. So that shows that the titans line is actually very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDSKINZ-RIDEORDIE Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I'd trade Brunell for that damn bird that the Falcons let loose before every home game. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dockeryfan Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I thought Brunell looked really good in the last game. If we could trade him to Atlanta, I think everyone would be happy. Brunell included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan T. Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 In terms of trade value, Brunell is like that second car with 185,000 miles on it. It's beat up, lots of stuff on it doesn't work, but it still gets you from point A to point B. It won't bring you jacksheet in trade, but it still has value to you because it runs, warts and all.

TLusby Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Trent Green was dealt to Miami for a 5th; correct? Atlanta is in real need so let's get the TJ Duckett 3rd rounder back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinsfanno9 Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I think Brunell is a good guy to have on the bench and to mentor JC when times are rough. That said, if we could get a decent guard for him, or even a 5th round pick, I'd do it. 6th or 7th, given our draft history probably would be a waste of time. It would be better to keep Brunell in that case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngloSackSon Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I think this deal could happen. Gibbs has a ton of respect for MB, thus would be doing him a favor by giving him a legitimate opportunity to start in an offense he knows. I also think the 3rd round guess is legitimate. The Falcons are desperate and poised to overpay for something they want. However, there is always posturing in these scenarios, and the 'Skins position may be weakened if Atlanta is privy to how willing Gibbs may be to do favor for MB...:2cents: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinzFoLife Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Looks like Vick finally put in his plea and they his side is asking for 10-12 months. So this deal may go down pretty soon, knowing that Vick will be gone at the very least 1 year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Sassy Molassy Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 If this deal were to happen, I would look for the Skins to make a move for one of Atlanta's WRs. While their WRs are below average as starters, they have some young guys who have good size(6'1" - 6'3") and speed, that could prove to be very helpful in the passing game as #3 or 4 WRs ... especially now with Espy out. Someone said something about us trading for one of their guards, but I don't think that's a good idea, they wouldn't have time to gain chemistry with the team. It's too late to add a new starting G to the line, would be a step backward imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
