Brandon Marshall would be a good fit for this team
Brandon Marshall the wide receiver out of Denver has had some notable disputes with their coach Josh McDaniels over his contract. Over the last year we have seen him complain after Cutler was traded to the Bears and a few weeks after that it was widely reported that he asked to be traded or given a larger sum of money. During the season their was a incident where during practice he was kicking balls and making the ball boys run after so the Broncos suspeneded him for that week's game. It has been reported that Marshall wants a bigger contract or wants to be traded, here my question do the redskins go out and trade for Marshall? I believe they should do whatever they can to bring him in to d.c. he can give you good production as your top receiver and will open up options for Campbell or whoever is the quarterback to throw to the other side f the field or the slot guy.
Look i understand we would have to give up our first round pick and maybe a player but if Denver want to deal him if they can not come to a agreement on a contract id say lets do the deal. now that means Santana moves to the slot and either we move Thomas or Kelly or even Mitchell to the other receiver position and that leaves Randle El out of the rotation nut like i said earlier if Marshall cant sign a extension with them and wants out i would think Marshall in a skins uniform would be a good thing/

I say "no"....
only bc he has shown a propensity to being a cancer. I haven’t heard any players come to bat for the guy…..which leads me to believe he isn’t looked at in a positive light. We don’t need any cancer in the locker room….there is enough from us and the media to hold them down! Maybe we get a couple good, quiet years out of him…..but at some point….all signs point to it going bad. He is a younger TO at this point!
That being said....
I am not questioning what he does on the field…..amazing athlete and if he was mentored by an older guy he respected…..could go a long way for him!
Absolutely.......
Portis more so at this point. I think if the team is rolling….Haynesworth is a company man. I think when times are tough…..he folds. Portis on the other hand…..he needs the spotlight either way….and the latest of calling out Arrington has completely put me over the top. I just don’t think we need anymore of these guys here now! The Skins have never been about that….and shouldn’t be (Riggins may be the exception)!
No again but different reason....
he will still demand a big contract….and he hasn’t proven he can come back from the knee injury yet. He was a less than average LB this year…..and it usually takes more than one to come back from the surgery he had. But….would you be willing to devote 5-8 million a year to him right now?
Marshall is not worth our #4 pick
with our team in the situation it is, we can’t trade our #4 pick for a wide receiver—even one as good as Brandon Marshall. Noone would consider drafting a WR with our 1st round pick, why would we trade it for one? Doesn’t make sense for us.
I think we have 3 pretty good young WR's in Thomas, Kelly and Mitchell
Throw in Fred Davis and thats a pretty good young corps to build for the future. Now all we need is someone to get them the football.
i like marshal but not for the 4th pick no way .
just think of marshal cooley moss thomas kelly what a great group of wr, but think of the poor qb who has to throw to them when he is getting planted on the turf . plus this guy is a asshole and needs a attitude adjustment we dont need another cancer we already have portis for that .
I am not into trading draft picks.
Marshall is a top flight receiver no doubt, but the skins have too many holes to fill to give up draft picks. Let a team like the Jets get him.
Its widely known that Mike Shanahan, if he wasn't fired, was going to CUT Marshall.
Mike said Marshall cost the team more wins than he was good for. Why would he want to bring him back?
Orakpo!!! Russel Okung next year!
100+ Receptions a year
I heard about that, and yes, I’d still take him. He’s got to mature off the field. But on the field, hello!!!
Brandon,
It seems kinda conterproductive to me to even think that we couldn’t use someone like that on our team. Coach him up, load his contract with clauses out the wazoo, and get the W’s.
Or see him in New York or Dallas and watch how “valuable” he becomes. Wouldn’t that be a grey haired b*tch…
I'm not saying we couldn't use him here, he would be a great addition as long as there was no drama
I’m just saying that Shanahan was already planning to cut him once because he was tired of him so what are the odds of him bringing Marshall in for a second chance. If you were the boss of a company and you were going to fire an employee, would you consider rehiring that employee knowing how they are if you were to work somewhere else?
As much as that would suck things happen.
I think your somewhat under the impression that I wouldn’t welcome him here. He would be a great addition because we need another WR threat and a guy to get the YAC but with all of the issues he has had and so many reports that were floating around about Shanahan planning to cut him I think it is unlikely. But who knows, maybe Shanahan will give him another shot.
it has been widely posted here
I’d love to see a link to something about this…or was this another Yahoo “rumor” that has become the bottom line months later?
what player would you trade for him?
i hate to say it but most likely has to be cooley, he has the most vaule on the team plus with davis emerging last season we really dont need t pass catching tight ends
yeah
i love u lancers i want cooley on denver for his hot wife

One big HELLL YEEEAAAAAHHHHH!!!
The guy is young, a serious weapon, knows the offense, big, great hands, averaged over 100 catches in the last two seasons….
Brandon Marshall is last thing we need
Sure he’s good, as a matter a fact he’s a beast but I don’t think this team needs an ego that big everyone would have to cater to him just so he shows up to play. We need hungry players

Load his contract with a ton of clauses
It can be done.
You guys have the right idea
he’s more of a headache and Shanny was interested in getting rid of him after 2008. He’s also just about one arrest away from a major suspension from Commissioner Goodell. Wanna see his history of off-field problems?
June 17, 2006: Conflicting police reports from Marshall and Rasheedah Watley were filed with the Orange County, Fla., Sheriff’s Department. Marshall told police that Watley became violent after seeing him earlier that evening as the object of another woman’s affection. Marshall described Watley to police as an old family friend and told police that Watley punched him and scratched his chest after an argument inside the couple’s Orlando apartment spiraled out of control. Watley, who filed a police report by phone from Atlanta three days after the incident, told Florida police that Marshall was the aggressor, and that he slapped her in the face, grabbed her by the arms and pushed her to the ground, and that Marshall’s sister, London, who was also present during the fight, cut Watley above her eye by throwing a cell phone or remote control at her face. No charges were ever filed.
Dec. 31, 2006: Marshall and several Broncos teammates were present at "The Shelter," a nightclub in Denver’s LoDo section, as part of a birthday celebration for Denver Nuggets forward Kenyon Martin. Former Broncos wide receiver Javon Walker later told HBO’s "Real Sports" that an argument broke out at the club when Marshall and his cousin sprayed champagne on another club patron and his friend. The men, who argued with Marshall and his cousin, were then asked to leave the club, Walker told HBO. Walker admitted he didn’t see the encounter. According to media reports, around closing time, Marshall and his cousin were seen on the sidewalk outside the club arguing with the patrons who had been ejected from the club earlier that night. Walker told HBO that he believes the argument contributed to a drive-by shooting a short time later that killed Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams.
Jan. 24, 2007: Police responded to a parking lot outside an Orlando bowling alley where Marshall and his father had a heated argument. According to a police report of the incident, Frederick Marshall said his son took out a handgun and fired one shot at him after the two men argued. Frederick Marshall, who refused to sign a sworn statement or press charges, said his son left the area after firing the handgun. Several witnesses said they never heard gunshots, according to the police report. Frederick Marshall also threatened to "ruin [Brandon’s] professional football career," according to the police report. Brandon Marshall also declined to press charges.
March 18, 2007: Atlanta police responded to a domestic dispute call at the Westin Peachtree hotel. Watley told officers that after meeting Marshall at the hotel that night, he became enraged after he went through her cell phone call list and noticed she’d been speaking with an ex-boyfriend. Watley told police Marshall hit her repeatedly with a closed fist. While she refused medical attention, police noticed a large, dark-colored bruise on Watley’s chin. Police reported seeing Marshall in the lobby of a neighboring hotel but, according to the report, Marshall left and was not arrested. Police advised Watley to take out a warrant for Marshall’s arrest, but Watley never did. No charges were ever filed.

March 26, 2007: Police in Douglas County, Colo., arrested Marshall for false imprisonment and domestic violence. Watley told "Outside the Lines" she was assaulted by Marshall a day earlier at Marshall’s suburban Denver home — she never reported that incident to police — and that she was attempting to fly back to Atlanta to get away from Marshall. Watley told police she and Marshall argued at the Denver airport and that she later agreed to return to Marshall’s home. Watley told police when she attempted to leave Marshall’s home a second time, Marshall followed her taxi and, at one point, blocked its path with his Dodge Charger, leapt from his car and punched the taxi cab’s windows. When contacted by "Outside the Lines," the cab driver confirmed Watley’s version of events. Marshall denied punching the taxi cab’s windows and later told police he was only trying to retrieve his cell phone, which he said Watley had taken from him.

Watley initially told officers that she accidentally cut herself with a kitchen knife.

Roughly an hour later, at 6:07 a.m., police were dispatched to the condo a second time. On this second visit Watley told police that Marshall did indeed cut her thigh with a kitchen knife during a fight earlier that evening and that he later returned to the condo and continued to assault Watley by punching her in the forehead. Watley’s friend, Kristeena Spivey, told police that while she was attempting to drive Watley from the condo complex, she noticed Marshall attempting to leave the scene. Spivey, who called 911 to make officers aware of Marshall’s whereabouts, said when she attempted to block Marshall’s exit from the parking lot with her vehicle, Marshall rammed her car with his Cadillac Escalade and then left his SUV and threw a large rock at the passenger side of Spivey’s car. Marshall fled the scene before police arrived, according to Spivey and Watley. Watley was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital for treatment. No charges were ever filed.

While on that trip, Watley said, Marshall argued with her about an ex-boyfriend. Watley said Marshall assaulted her at San Juan’s Condado Plaza Hotel, hitting her in the mouth, which caused her to bleed, and choking her on the bed. A report was filed by police saying officers were called to the hotel to help hotel security escort guests from the property. The report does not mention Watley, Marshall or any details of the incident.
March 4, 2008: Police responded around 9 p.m. to a fight call at Marshall and Watley’s Atlanta condo and found Marshall bleeding from his hand.

When asked by police who had the knife, Marshall then told officers there was no knife, and that he’d been cut on glass during a fight with Watley. Watley told police that Marshall became upset after finding text messages from an ex-boyfriend on Watley’s phone.

While police were interviewing Watley, Marshall fled, according to a report of the incident.
March 5, 2008: Police returned to Marshall and Watley’s condo around 1 a.m. Watley and her sister both told police that after the fight earlier that same evening, Marshall returned to the condo, took Watley’s purse and threw her personal belongings, including clothing, off of the 20th floor balcony.

Aug. 28, 2008: Less than a month after the NFL released a statement announcing Marshall’s suspension, the league released another statement saying Marshall’s suspension had been reduced upon appeal to one game without pay plus an additional fine of one game check.

Holy Crap!
And we want him in the DC area?
HO-LY SHIT
Who still wants him in DC?
SpottieOttieDopaliscious
just what we need
This is definitly what we need. Cut Randel El move Santana to slot and get Marshall. This would give us Marshall,Moss and either Thomas or Kelly on the feild
Or if you read above....
Kelly, Thomas, and Moss……with B.Marsh in jail for domestic violence or worse….a la Rae Carruth! His personal life is a disaster……..don’t need it here….no matter what the talent level is. One player is not worth sacrificing a locker room over!
YES !
Definitley a huge weapon and could get a lot of pressure of that jason campbell guy, i would rather have him then him burn us (laron landry) for 2 more touchdowns.
