Keyshawn

What's wrong with you people? Keyshawn Johnson was cut a day ago and there is not one good story or rumor that the Washington Redskins are going to sign him. Don't we have a reputation to live up to? Must I start all these rumors?

Profootballtalk.com carries stories that the Giants and Eagles are interested in Johnson. We have to keep up. Get on the stick people.

Even Johnson's agent, Jerome Stanley, failed to name drop "Daniel Snyder" to goose contract talks, although he did issue a statement that "several teams have expressed interest in Johnson and that he does have offers." He's blowing it for his client.

Personally, I hope 35 year old Johnson retires. His numbers are getting too close to Art Monk's career record. I would quit blogging if Me-Shawn gets voted into the Hall Of Fame as the epitome possession receiver before Art.

Asante Samuel - the other side of the trade debate

The Washington Redskins explored a trade for New England Patriots cornerback Asante Samuel. That's not news. The Redskins would trade a sixth round pick for a top ten water boy. Take a look at New England fan reaction to a potential Samuel trade for the other side of the debate.

Hog Heaven posted a story comparing Samuel with Champ Bailey, the gold standard of cornerbacks in an article Does Samuel Pass the Bailey Test? The story was picked up by Patriots Planet, a fan message board similar to The Warpath and ExtremeSkins. Patriots' fan reaction is very revealing. Undertaker #59 wrote " I just hope they DO trade Samuel come Saturday. Champ Bailey he is not." For more, go to the Patriots Planet thread here.
