Is Washington Realm your twitter SN? Cuz that's who I was talking to. But as you posted it, it was addressed to you......Got me there
Maybe it was a win-win for Cooper and Dallas? The fact that Smith and RR didn't see thru Cooper's games and wanted to pay him 20 million plus a year is disturbing.dallas can get out of that contract next season so who played whom ?
i watched allen and cerrato do the same thing if what you are saying is true . here in dallas they say cooper simply wanted to play with dallas and he took far less to do so kind of blowing up your theoryMaybe it was a win-win for Cooper and Dallas?

I understand what you are saying about climbing the ladder with becoming a GM and I get that.
To rebuild a roster that was arguably the worst in the NFL, wouldn't it make sense to bring in someone with some GM experience who knows what they are doing like an Assistant GM? Instead, we went with a rookie pseudo GM (Smith) and gave personnel decisions to a coach who had never been over personnel during his tenure in the NFL. I repeat, RR had no personnel authority in Carolina I think we can both agree that this was probably not smart at all. RR should have done with Andy Reid did when he came to KC and brought somebody with him who knew the ropes in Dorsey. I believe its worked pretty well for them right?
Like I said, with the dumpster fire the roster was in, I can see no logic in giving the reins to a first time duo. While Smith has solid college and draft experience, he had no experience with courting free agents, selling the organization and locking down a contract. Neither did RR and it showed with the egg they laid in offseason #1. Someone with experience in those 3 areas and was an understudy to a successful GM should have been given that assignment. As I have said a million times, when Snyder said that RR was the final voice and final authority, I saw a red flag. The kyrptonite for several NFL coaches has been jurisdiction over personnel.
This was a good article on the plan that he and RR had going into the offseason.

Hopefully RR and Smith learn from this.
In a recent episode of the Redskins Talk podcast, Cowboys beat reporter Newy Scruggs explained why he believes Cooper turned down more money from the Redskins to stay with Dallas.
"I just think he used Washington for the leverage to get [the money] he wanted," Scruggs said. "He said all the time he wanted to play for the Cowboys."
