Re: Three-team trade
Jenkins will be better than Lelie IMO. Lelie's a one-dimensional stick with bad hands.Originally posted by Kerr"It is better to be divided by truth than to be united by error." -- Martin Luther

I forgot about Jenkins. At least he has two deep threats and a possession receiver.Originally posted by PhilagapeComment

Re: Three-team trade
Here is the official link:
Duckett, Lelie involved in three-team trade 
ATLANTA (Aug. 22, 2006) -- The Atlanta Falcons traded running back T.J. Duckett to the Washington Redskins as part of a three-team deal and acquired holdout receiver Ashley Lelie from the Denver Broncos.NFL.com wire reports
The Broncos received Washington's third-round pick in the 2007 draft as part of the deal, according to two officials within the league who spoke on condition of anonymity because the trade had not been officially announced.
Washington had been shopping for a running back since star Clinton Portis partially dislocated his shoulder in the preseason opener against Cincinnati.
The Redskins are unsure if he'll be ready for the start of the regular season.
The Falcons, meanwhile, were eager to land another receiver after losing Brian Finneran to a season-ending knee injury in the early days of training camp. Lelie was the NFL's leader in yards per catch the last two seasons, but he held out of training camp in hopes of forcing a trade.

Re: Three-team trade
Ashley Lelie = Peerless Price, 2006.
because
Atlanta = the graveyard of WR's
and
Michael Vick = terrible QB
As you can see, it's simple mathComment
