He's so awesome...

Signing Bonus: $1.37 Million, and one case of Miller Lite.
 
ROFLMBO! Only Chris Cooley. I really hope he can have a great second half of the season and give us two or three addtional years of great play at TE.

Welcome back CC47!
 
I dont know if you guys read more of the text correspondence but it's clear he really doesn't want to play for anyone else. Love that guy, he's one of very few 'new era' players that are core Redskins
 
Love the man's spirit....always have. I have no doubt he'll be great in the locker room, will block well enough, and even get open underneath for possession type catches.

Going to wait until I see him try to run after his first catch before deciding if he's going to be any real help to the team this year, though. Preseason wasn't that long ago--man kinda looked to me like he was running in oobleck. :)

Oh, got you. I followed that link, but only skimmed it, thinking that was interviews he had done. Thanks!
 
I'm convinced he's the long lost son of Riggo.

Great stuff! lol
 
Just one case? And they wouldn't go for that?

He should've asked for a six pack for every reception and a case for every TD. :pint:
