[Redskins] Redskins Interested In Trading For WR Chad Johnson?

"Numerous league sources" tell the Washington Post that the Redskins are interested in trading for Chad Johnson. Two sources say Johnson is "eager" to get a new contract from the Redskins, confirming that Chad's main beef with the Bengals is about money. With a coaching staff almost fully in place, owner Dan Snyder's top priority is known to be acquiring a No. 1 receiver. While the Bengals aren't interested in moving Johnson currently, sources tell the Post that agent Drew Rosenhaus is actively working to broker a deal. It's believed the Bengals would ask for two second-round picks, or a late first and a third.

He's on about not having enough money from the Bengals, but, if I'm not mistaken, the 'Skins are 20 mil over the cap. I don't think they're in any sort of shape to give him a big deal.

It would be awesome if this could happen but I highly doubt it will due to the salary cap. O well, another year with short receivers
