Wouldn't surprise me either - maybe this is the beginning of the youth movement in DC? The only thing that doesn't fit is that he signed a 3-year contract. Although it could have been configured as a 1-year deal...Also yesterday Moss was projected to be out 5 to 7 weeks. You have to wonder if he will be far behind Cooley in going to IR.![]()
I think he was out 4 - 6 weeks because of his finger. He saw Dr. James Andrews yesterday who checked out his knee. That's probably what sent him to IR.So yesterday he was projected to be out 4 to 6 weeks and today he is going to IR.

I can't imagine this would be the end of Cooley in DC. Yes, he will be 30 before next season, but he's got a couple good years left in him yet. The prevalence of the two-TE set in today's NFL should ensure he sticks around at least another year or two. Paulsen looks set to fill his role eventually, but I don't think he's quite there yet. Not to mention, Cooley didn't look halfway terrible at fullback - so he's versatile. His blocking has improved every year he's been here, and he's a great locker room guy.As I posted in the other thread, is this the last we see of Colley in a Skins uni?
This would blow and be a mistake, IMHO. Just look at how dangerous the Pats are with two serious pass catching threats at TE. You can make the argument that the pair in NE is only better pair of pass catching TEs in this league than we currently have in Washington.Yes, it was the knee that sent him to IR. #47 has played his last down with the Redskins according to insiders. He will be released during the offseason.
The same insiders who swore up and down we were drafting Gabbert at 10th overall, no doubt.Yes, it was the knee that sent him to IR. #47 has played his last down with the Redskins according to insiders. He will be released during the offseason.
Uh, no. Not even close.The same insiders who swore up and down we were drafting Gabbert at 10th overall, no doubt.
I understand what you are saying, but there are two factors to consider. From what I understand, Cooley will never be the same with this bum knee. Also, Davis will be a FA this coming offseason and he is a priority.This would blow and be a mistake, IMHO. Just look at how dangerous the Pats are with two serious pass catching threats at TE.

Frankly, if Kyle can't figure out how to use them, I would rather get a new OC.
This is where my thinking is heading, cause God knows he hasn't figured it out yet. So far he hasn't even figured out to run, run, run on teams that give up 4-5 YPCFrankly, if Kyle can't figure out how to use them, I would rather get a new OC.
Actually, the offense is stuck in the same place it has been for the past 20 or so years - averaging a whopping 17 to 19 points per game.This offense is where the defense was a year ago.
