elkabong82 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 http://www.bengals.com/news/news.asp?story_id=6737 Citing team and league sources, ESPN.com says that the Redskins offered their first-round pick, No. 21 overall this year, and a conditional third-rounder in 2009 that could escalate to a first rounder if Johnson and the Redskins hit certain performance levels, But speaking at a Tuesday news conference for this weekend's draft, Lewis said that Bengals president "Mike Brown has not received a phone call." The club has been adamant in not trading the disgruntled five-time Pro Bowl wide receiver and ESPN's Chris Mortensen said the Eagles and Cowboys have also been told Johnson is not on the market. With Johnson talking retirement if the Bengals don't trade him, Lewis said, "He's a man of his word. He says he's not going to play, so don't play." "It's time to do what you're going to say you do and we'll just move forward," Lewis said. Quarterback Carson Palmer, who unintentionally got in the middle of L'Affaire Chad last week when Johnson ripped Palmer for saying he would be here when he had to be, avoided saying much Tuesday. "I take it with a grain of salt," Palmer said. "I've always been a forgiving guy," and he still would like Johnson to come back because he's been such a good player. So we can chill out now with the over reaction threads? *Got this in breaking news, posted by Bubba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Full Monty Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Snyder: Since you don't wanna deal, Mike, and your cheapskate operation is kept alive by a revenue-sharing deal that is largely financed by me, Bob McNair, and Jerry Jones, let's just say this never happened, ok? Brown: Least I can do for ya. Man I love being cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushwack Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 4 days until we dont have to hear about our 08 draft picks getting traded. Other way to think: 4 days Snyder has left to give away all our important draft picks to somehow make Chad a Redskin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkabong82 Posted April 22, 2008 Author Share Posted April 22, 2008 there is a discussion going on about this in the other thread too I know, it's what prompted to me to create a thread for the news source. If you feel a merge is necessary, then by all means. I just figured this would show others it is just a rumor, and maybe curb all the Dear Snyder threads, or at least prevent certain "realists" from flying off the handle.

DexterSackMachine Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 This makes no difference to irrational-Redskins-fan, he will insist that the Mort rumor must be true because "Danny" is such a moron. Who needs facts..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTC228 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 This would be terrible and absolutely unbelievable if this trade offer is true. Why would you waste two first round picks on a guy thats 30 years old for one, and second once things start going bad for him in Washington, he's not going to want to play for us anymore! If we want to trade a first round pick for a reciever I'd much rather see us get Roy Williams, a guy who is 2 inches taller, more than 20 pounds heavier, and 4 years younger than Chad.....but even then he isn't worth 2 first round picks! If Danny does make this trade he is proving that he knows absolutely nothing about football. I plan on going to the draft day party this year, but if this goes down before the draft theres no chance I go, and I just hope after waiting there all day and giving Danny more of my money on food and beer, when that #21 pick comes, it better not say we made a trade for Oocho Sucko!

Jimbo Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 ....and the first time Ocho catches a TD at home and breaks into the Riverdance, he'll be "worth every penny", right? Man, this is crazy! We scream for an upgrade and when the FO tries to make the team better, we scream it's a bad idea. Do we REALLY know what the heck we want.......besides EVERY pick in the first round?

gorebd82 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I wouldn't be surprised if this "rumor" came from the Skins to throw off Philly and Dallas and scare them with the price tag or try to outbid us. Someone else posted a reply saying that the commentary about the cap hit sounds like it came straight from Snyder's mouth. But then again, I might have a little more faith in the ability of our FO than most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
