Dirk Diggler Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/09/01/AR2007090101314.html Cooley Signs 6-Year Deal; Wynn Is Among Final Cuts By Jason La Canfora Washington Post Staff Writer Sunday, September 2, 2007; Page D01 The Washington Redskins signed tight end Chris Cooley to a six-year contract extension yesterday -- a rapid conclusion to what had been a lengthy negotiation -- and set their 53-man roster. The contract came as a great relief to both Cooley and the organization on what was an otherwise dour afternoon as the Redskins let go of 23 players -- including veteran leader Renaldo Wynn -- to reach the roster limit.

Fred Jones Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 I would like the skins to pick up a 5th WR off the waiver wire like JLC thinks. The skins are always looking and I wonder who else they will go after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 So, I guess now La Canfora can quit cracking on the Skins for not resigning their players and not finding younger prospects to fill some of the backup jobs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooblakas Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Great move by the Redskins Front Office in resigning Cooley. I hate to see Renaldo Wynn go; he did a lot for this organization since he's been here. Everybody, including myself, will also miss Renaldo Wynn on the Monday Night Live Shows with Chick Hernandez and Jon Jansen on Comcast Sports Net.

jimster Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 'Look, I'd like this done,' and it was awesome," Cooley said. "I think Dan heard about it a day later and said, 'Look, we pay. We want to pay. All we want is you here.' And maybe three days later it was done." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mi6 Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Cooley congratulations on getting the deal signed and done! But, now its time to earn your keep. Beat the %%%% out off Jeremey Shockey ... I mean out play that ahole in every category possible. A number of Skin plays have let me down ... Hope you don't! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mania Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Great news on Cooley, but I'm sorry to see Renaldo Wynn go, not only was he a hard worker, but he was an awesome presence in the locker room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
