What about Peppers to DC for Colt Brennan and a 1st (or more)?


top dawg

Recommended Posts

What do you guys think about Colt Brennan? Would he and the Skins' first round pick be enough for Pep? I was just playing around with different scenarios. Someone had posted early on in the season that Pep might want to go to Washington.

I know that Brennan broke all kinds of records at Hawaii, but some questiones his effectiveness as an NFL QB. Here are some interesting links regarding Brennan and Pep to DC:

Pep probably won't end up in DC

While we're at it, let's sign Timmy Chang :rolleyes:

Julius Peppers for Colt Brennan? Even with the first thrown in, that's one of the most one-sided trades in history, and we would be on the wrong end. That'd make it twice the Redskins screwed us in a franchise player trade.

(geez, and I thought the "Peppers for Anderson" threads were bad)

Hmm...another possibility. I don't hate the guy but you are reaching here. For Peppers, I think we need to get a player that is already quality.

Brennan would just be a little more sugar to sweeten the deal. According to the football pundits, we may find it difficult to get equal value for Pep.

Come on, Scottie. You're supposed to be the "voice of reason."

Sorry man, but that's an awful trade. You don't trade a franchise level player for a backup QB that "might" be a good pro.

If you want a player, it's got to be one that's at least close to equal value. Brennan is all potential at this point, and he played in a system that made Timmy Chang look like a world beater too.

I understand that people want something in trade, but that's not gonna do it.

Um thats why he said Brennan and a 1st rd pick

See above. I said even with the pick thrown in there's no way I'd take that trade.

Personally, I think Brennan is a bust waiting to happen. Regardless of opinion though, trading a player like Peppers for a guy like Brennan (even with the 1st rounder) is an awful idea.

But Scottie, some say that we'd be lucky to get a first round pick at all, much less one with a player with some potential (however limited).

I don't agree with the notion that we can't get at least a 1st and 3rd for him.

There's just no way I could be convinced that swapping Peppers for a pick and a guy whose only claim to fame is as a "preseason star" and college record setter. You might as well trade for Tim Couch.

    • Holy poo... we have allowed the fewest goals in the playoffs, total. Including the teams that lost in the first round... lmao
    • It was nothing. It was a nice run in an easy schedule that did nothing but lose us DJ Moore and a lot more. We were 2-15 in 2023. Based on your logic, that winning finish should have been a launching point. For as much as you want to say we shouldn’t have taken a risk, you still can’t admit that the plans we tankers laid out were proven correct. There’s no revisionist history. We said we should have traded Burns to the Rams. We said we should have sold off anything not bolted down like Brown and Horn and even Icky because they were in the 5 year plan. There is no disconnect, we tried to keep winning and draft a rookie QB and we lost about 4 1st round picks of value that could have been given to the guys you think might be the right crew.
    • You’re assuming Fitt still gets fired at the same time. That’s the problem with all these hypothetical hindsight thoughts. If we had a fire sale so to speak I’m not sure the GM gets fired a year or two later due to a bad roster and bad record. Fitt went into win now mode, made it seem like we were only a QB away “we won’t drafting this high again” trading picks for vets etc and when he couldn’t show results he was fired. I’m sure this was all mentioned in his GM interviews. What’s his plan to turn us around and how quickly can he do it. Also you want last year’s CMC and Burns on our roster? At their price? Moving on from both was the right call, with Burns being the wrong time. If a team does a full roster strip down rebuild it can buy the GM more time as long as everyone is on the same page.
