Trade for Gardner

Hey Skins' fans, is the organization really planning on trading Rod Gardner? As a Bears fan we could really use him. How about R.W. Mcquarters (who could fill the spot Smoot left open) and our fifth rounder for Gardner? Or you guys and/or gals could propose something else?

Yeah, your 2nd or 3rd rounder if you have one. Not really interested in R.W..

No interest in R.W. McQuarters? Hmm... I think he's decent. I'd prefer to start him over Walt Harris and if I'm not mistaken, he can return punts as well. I still hope they can get atleast a third round pick for Gardner though. A second is preferred, but I doubt anyone would give up a second rounder for him. Otherwise... keep him. No one really acts as if that's an option, but he did make some big catches last year. He's not THAT bad. Maybe... move him to tight end?

Hehe... Good question. I remember when the Redskins played the Bears and I can remember McQuarters being solid. Of course, that's just one game. I can honestly say that I don't keep up with any Bears players throughout the season. All I know is... I'm still bitter about Urlacher's cheap face-mask penalty on Portis.

McQuarter's is still a good player, we just have better corners in Azumah and Tillman. R-Dub is easily starting quality in the NFL, and he is one of the most dynamite punt returners in the league. Just thought the trade would benefit us both.

Personally, I rather force Gardner to play WR for the Skins if we can't get a 2nd rounder for him. Goddamnit, we spend a 1st rounder for him, and I think he could still play. I don't give a [inappropriate/removed] if he wants to be out, but he'll play or Dan da man will send him a big flat screen.

McQuarters and a 4th for Gardener? Sounds pretty even and a trade worth making.

As much as I would love to force Gardner to play giving us some size and speed, he counts 2mill plus against the cap and we are completely out of room. He will be traded on draft day and then we will see another round of cap cuts on the team staerting with Chad Morton. The guy is only on the team as a returner and we are deep there now.

If we can't get better than a third for gardner which I dont think we will, I dont mind the McQ trade depending on what his price tag is. We could always use the depth to help develop G.Wilds

I think Gardner will be traded for merely a third round pick come draft day. I'm just trying to be realistic. I doubt that the Redskins are gonna do any player for player swaps.

If Edge and Alexander are only worth second rounders, then there is no way Gardner would command such a high price tag. RW and our fourth rounder (106) seems like an even trade to me. A starting corner, and a high fourth seems like third round value to me.
