Walking Deadman Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I call BS....Mort has been very unreliable with his inside info. as of late Remember, Eli Manning being out for the whole season per Mort and then play the next week :doh: I really hope this isn't true.....Johnson isn't worth 2 first rounders at his age and a new mega-contract IMO......just seems a bit much. I wonder if the source was Drew Rosenhaus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jthor99 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Don't be shocked/suprised when this deal goes down after June 1st. I honestly believe at this point there is NO WAY Chad Johnson can go back to the Bengals. Too much fire on that bridge at this point. I honestly believe after June 1st Chad Johnson will be coming to D.C. Its obvious Dan Snyder and Vinny want him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pollaxt Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Not buying it. If true, no way Cincy would turn the deal down. NO WAY. And you have to think of it as 2 1st rounders. Because if the Skins aren't expecting Chad Johnson to perform well enough to escalate the conditional 3rd rounder to a 1st, then WHY THE HELL ARE THEY TRADING FOR HIM???

Ern814 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 no way, id give up this years 1st maybe next years 2nd but not 2 firsts. its all speculation believe it when i see it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyDave Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 That is crazy. They are idiots for turning it down....man u guys don't waste time putting up a thread.HTTR! The front office were bigger idiots if they actually offered this deal. And why would they overspend for mini T.O.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeMarco Murray 29 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Why Cincy passed is beyond me. That is taking the Skins to the tool shed and beating them twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Lloyd Christmas Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 if this is true, vinny is right back on the stupid wagon. im reeeeally hoping this is just speculation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyDave Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Well its time to flood the phonelines with dont eff up and make a stupid trade for this guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovetoaster Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I want Chad, but that is simply too much in my opinion. When you take into consideration the picks and the contract that it is going to take...it's just too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phishisthegreatstuff Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 when you think about how the Patriots got Randy Moss for a 4th rounder you realize that is why they are the best team in football year after year. Chad Johnson is a great player, but NOT WORTH 2 FIRST ROUND PICKS. I would trade Chad for our 21st this year though. That is fair.

Going Commando Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 The conditional 1st rounder says that not only must Johnson hit certain performance goals, but also the team must as well. I bet this means that the Redskins would keep the pick if they missed the playoffs or something, so there would be no way that Cincy would be getting a top 10 pick from the Redskins. I'm totally ok with this trade. I would much rather have Chad Johnson with the 21st pick than kentwan balmer or calais campbell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't want to see us give any more than this year's 1st, but I think it's more likely nothing happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheismannQuote Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Knucklehead decisions. Remember when we got lucky and the Bears stopped us from trading for Lance Briggs? Let's hope the Bengals feel that same kind of care in our well being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDSKNfaithfull Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 If they didn't take that they are idiots. Odds are much more in favor of us picking in the top 16 next year :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooper Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I believe it. Especially when you read the quote in the article about dead money -- which sounds like it came right out of Snyder or Cerrato's mouth. Crazy, just crazy. Two high picks for a 30 year old receiver with a horrible attitude? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightningBuggs Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Two years in a row, our FO is saved from themselves. Last year, it was the Bears who rebuffed the Skins ridiculous advances for Briggs. This year, it's Cincy. Absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Johnson is a great player, but NOT WORTH 2 FIRST ROUND PICKS. I would trade Chad for our 21st this year though. That is fair. NOTHING MORE Randy Moss 2 years ago had given up on his team and many felt that his career was over. Had the Raiders known that he had that much left they would have obviously demanded more.

Heck Marvin Lewis just saved us from ourselves by saying no. Hopefully the front office will stop drinking the Stupid juice and behaving like Maddenites.
