#98QBKiller Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Did Synderatto really offer that up or is that what the Bengals demanded? It really seems like no one, not even Vinny would be that dumb. I don't know if I believe that either. I've only heard about it on ES but I can't recall seeing any links or anything. The Vinny/Danny combo was dumb but I don't think they were that dumb.

TheismannQuote Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Think about what we anted up for Lance Briggs and then were shot down by the bears. That would have been crazy, too. Or, what we traded for McNabb versus sending the next few drafts for jay cutler and his magnificent quarterbacking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKOALSKIN Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Relax, it's the off-season bro. Maybe you should start a thread....oh wait that priviledge has been yanked.I digress....For all the folks incapable of reading the 2 sentences in the first post. The Redskins offered the 2009 and 2010 first round pick for Chad Ochocinco, Bengals owner Mike Brown declined the trade saving the Raiders from being "The Redskins of the West". Thanks for the history lesson and the Zing. Any chance you can bring up a thread on almost trading for Lance Briggs or Mark Sanchez? I mean there's plenty of cerato sucks threads. Way to be creative with yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peregrine Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Its simple. If 32 teams in the NFL were offered the opportunity to trade Orakpo and Williams for Eighty-five(rough translation of his name from Spanish), they would all laugh at the idea. Thank GOD the bengals turned us down... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewCliche21 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Dan just needs to go away. Sign checks and move out of the country. He is still our biggest challenge with this franchise going forward. Snyder's actually done everything right this offseason. Have you heard a peep out of him? Neither have I. And to those bashing the thread: This trade proposal did happen after the 2008 season. Ochocinco for two first-round picks, and the feeling is that we actually pursued it. Great hindsight thread! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not two first-round picks. It's a first and: a conditional third-rounder in 2009 that could escalate to a first-rounder if Johnson and the Redskins hit certain performance levelsThe article fails to mention what the conditions were. For all we know they could have stipulated that the Redskins have to make the NFC Championship game or the Super Bowl to be a 1st rounder. Still dumb? Absolutely. But not as dumb as offering two first-round picks straight up for Ocho****ingCinco. He's not worth one first-round pick IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honejc Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 i think the bengals thought it was a joke so they turned it down. Little did they know... cerrato was serious. now they are kicking themselves haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HBnotBlades Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 This happened two years ago and was confirmed by multiple sources, including the in the link that MCD5 provided. (Great find.) It's good to keep everything in perspective, no matter how bad the Haynesworth situation seems, at least Vinny isn't in charge anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HBnotBlades Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Also, that was our 2008 and 2009 1st rounder(or 3rd) rounders, not 2009 and 2010. We wouldn't have lost Trent Williams. It would have essentially been: Chad Johnson FOR Devin Thomas, Fred Davis and Brian Orakpo (or Kevin Barnes based on the conditional) Although the 2008 first rounder was involved in a multiple pick swap, so it's hard to pin down which players it was directly responsible for.

McD5 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Snyder's actually done everything right this offseason. Have you heard a peep out of him? Neither have I. What happens when Shanahan leaves? Hopefully his son takes over, and Dan disappears. What we do know, is that Dan will still be here. And his stench is strong. It continues to linger over the team(Fat Al.) He is our biggest problem, and barring divine intervention, will probably remain our biggest problem for the next 10 or 20 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
