I see the Washington Post has sportswriters as clueless as their editorial board.
The Rivers trade will NEVER happen because the Chargers can't afford the cap hit when all of Rivers' bonus money hits the Chargers salary cap at one time, not to mention what it will cost to sign three first-round draft choices on top of that. Morons!
And it seems obvious that they, and many other idiots, think the only position the Texans are looking at in the first round is offensive tackle because of the Pace thing. What good is it going to do for David Carr to break in his third rookie LT in four years? The Texans pursued Pace because he was Orlando Pace and they hoped they could use the signing deadline to pressure the Rams into trading a franchise player without paying the franchise rate (two #1s). It didn't work out. The Texans do have offensive line problems but a rookie LT is not going to solve them.
