Apathy Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Rumored offer (per Drew Rosenhaus): 1.06 for Briggs and 1.31 Fox Sports Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pope Flick Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 What's difficult to believe about this deal is that the Bears have traditionally not allowed players to force their hands, instead they have in the past let the player sit out. Also, Angelo is more the trade down to stash picks type of GM, like in 2003. I'm not sure if he traded up with the Bucs, but I'm pretty sure he hasn't done so with the Bears. Also, having just signed Archuleta would they trade up for Landry? If not, then who - a sliding Brady Quinn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Chicago doesnt want to pay him, so why not get a player that can potentially get them over the hump for him. Though I still think Detroit takes Quinn. Why let a franchise QB pass for a LT, who could be a bust like the other white guy from the Big 10 playing outside. Im not sure that Ol has the speed to stop a speed rusher anyway, so why invest that much when better talent and options are available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Does this trade make much sense? McIntosh did play a couple of games and his athletecism showed when he did. They rarely play rookies over there. I'm surprised they are going after a LB. He would be fine for a kid and they have other needs especially on the line. And safety. They could pick up a good D-lineman at the #6 spot. I tend to doubt this trade, but the Skins have done the unexpected before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Ryan Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Makes no sense for the Skins. McIntosh has got to be the man here. He is cheaper, and they get another stud at #6. Wash needs a pass rush more than another LB. And @6, they have their choice after ARZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 At least the Skins let Holdman go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
