Redskins, Daniel Snyder Offer Two 1st Round Picks for Chad Johnson, Bengals One Up Insanity by Saying No
by CriticalFanatic
4/22/08

It's always good fun to see two of the most poorly run franchises attempt to make deals with one another. Even when Dumb offers the best possible deal, Dumber isn't smart enough to take it.

"According to sources" the genius that is Daniel Snyder has offered the Cincinnati Bengals their 21st overall, 1st round pick, in addition to a '09 draft pick that could become another first rounder with performance incentives, in exchange for Chad Johnson and all his baggage.

That's insane. We don't need to go into great detail about Ocho Cinco's talents, but as he's proven, he's a bigger distraction than he is a playmaker. That's not what you want to dump on the young and promising Jason Campbell.

Typical Daniel Snyder, who finally recognizes a marquee player that would be great for his movies, and offers up everything.

Fortunately, for Snyder AND Redskins fans, the Bengals have said no. Typical Bungals, can't even recognize a steal when it's presented to them.

This is even more insane.

Not only does Cincinnati and Marvin Lewis - who I still believe is a good coach - get rid of the negative influence of Johnson, they get to immediately draft one of the best receivers in the draft at No. 21, after taking their linebacker or defensive tackle at No. 9. There couldn't be a better scenario.

Wait, yes there can. They also would likely get another first round pick in 2009. Worst case scenario, it's a 3rd rounder. Even if the Bengals would have to accept an $8-million salary cap hit over the next two years, they're silly for not jumping at the chance to get Chad Johnson off their hands.

Dumb and Dumber IV: Daniel Snyder and the Bengals attempt to trade.

If it's true that they still have to pay Chad even if they trade him, I dunno why they'd want to add another two first round salaries to that tab.  If Chad truly wants out, he'll give up his signing bonus.

I've been against the Bengals trading away Johnson, but thats a pretty tempting offer.  Two 1st round picks would probably worth it.  Anything less and I'd keep Ocho Cinco.

Ocho Cinco is a top flight WR, but he is not worth two 1st round picks.

Nobody is.  Except Brady Quinn apparently.  Dan Snyder is just an attention whore.  The Redskins will never be contenders, regardless of who's on board.

Hmm, probably one that nets them a proven receiver in return, as opposed to two draft picks that can't help them at all now.
