Bill from NYC Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Thanks, good find. Does anybody here think that GW would prefer Buchannon to Clements? If a deal is consumated, only time will tell if it was a good or bad idea, but count me as one who thinks that Nate to the Skins is a distinct possibility.

Brandon Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 It looks like we can put the Nate trade talk to bed...sort of 308642[/snapback] I certainly wouldn't go that far. It appears that the Redskins are definitely interested in acquiring a top veteran CB in some sort of deal with their 9th overall pick. Given that the last four paragraphs of the article discuss the possibility of the Redskins being interested in trading for Clements, and is coming from a Washington newspaper, I'd say that the rumor has more life than ever.

scribo Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Important to note: this article says the rumored deal with the Raider involves the Skins getting a second rounder from Oakland as well. That may be why the Skins are looking at the Raiders now instad of focusing on the Bills. There is no way I'd trade Nate and our second round pick for #9. I would seriously consider trading Nate for the #9 pick straight up, providing we had a solid plan in place to turn that #9 pick into a later first rounder and a second, or even two decent second rounders. I don't see TD trading Nate just to move up in this draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had enough clout to be involved in a news story. It has enough validity to be commented on by Redskins officials.

RVJ Posted April 19, 2005 Author Share Posted April 19, 2005 I think if Greg wants him that Gibbs will pull the trigger. I assume Snyder will do what Gibbs suggests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume Snyder will dowhat Gibbs suggests. 308740[/snapback] Hey, GW begged Gibbs to pick Sean Taylor last year, and look what a mess that's turning into! http://www.profootballtalk.com/rumormill.htm If the Skins are targeting Buchanan from Oakland, whose salary is only $1.5 million, it's unlikey they want to pay top dollar for a new long-term contract fro NC. How much cap room does Washington have, anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
