.... Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=1785718 For a friggin 2nd rounder. Bungles blow it again, and give the defending SB champs a player to fill their biggest hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steffan Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 I wonder if he's going to whine to the world that he didnt get traded to the team he wanted to go to, like Owens did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 I wonder if he's going to whine to the world that he didnt get traded to the team he wanted to go to, like Owens did Owens had a case though. As big of a Niners fan that I am, they tried to screw him BIG time. They went behind his back on the trade. Dillon, like many others, just said "it would be nice to play for [insert team here]". But the Eagles had a deal done with the niners. They then went behind the Eagles backs and got a deal with the Browns because they got a better draft pick. anyway...back to the topic. Yeah, the Pats got a GREAT deal.....the deal of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 ' date='Apr 19 2004, 18:13'] the deal of the year was made by the redskins the day they adquired Portis I actually think they got screwed on that deal. It's much harder to find a good cornerback than a good runningback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You assume they got a good cornerback? When Quincy Carter can smoke you...you aren't a good CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicoCahill Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 the pats didn't even have to give up either of their first round picks, great deal for them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denver got what most in the nfl believes to be best CB in the game. ANYONE in ANY sport can have a bad day. That doesn't define the level of your play.

Chad Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 Apparently, Washington...the team that traded him, disagrees.....and also added a 2nd rounder to the deal to prove it. Let's get the story straight here. He wanted out of Washington, and let everyone know about it. The only team that could afford him AND had a huge need, was Denver. Therefore Washington really had no choice when it came to the deal. Denver made their demand, and Washington had to take it. This deal will hurt Washington more than help. Denver will be MUCH better because of the deal. Great cornerbacks are RARE. They are THE highest commodity in the NFL. There are less than 10 great CBs in the league, while RBs number in the high 20s...at least one per team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+StevoFC MVC Posted April 20, 2004 MVC Share Posted April 20, 2004 :(Patriots could make it to the SB again! /me hopes Pittsburgh does some great drafting lol i bet they get a qb...release maddox, and start batch this season and then start the new qb after that.

-=SD=- Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 why. maddox is better than batch imo. I agree with that but with the line they have it may be better to have a mobile QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+StevoFC MVC Posted April 20, 2004 MVC Share Posted April 20, 2004 no way. batch can do the same as stewart...except play wr. but we have one of the best receiving squads in the nfl so there's no reason for it. maddox's good season was a fluke. ever since he got that injury he hasn't been anything special. he wouldn't even be a starter on any other team. i'm not saying batch should either though, but we need a mobile qb.

-=SD=- Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 lol anyone but him, * > kordell I do hope they draft a QB, upgrade their line and improve their defense but I think that's asking a little too much in one draft hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
