STRAHAN TO THE 'SKINS?

There's talk at the scouting combine in Indy that Giants defensive end Michael Strahan wants to become a member of the Washington Redskins.

On the surface, the chances of the Giants trading Strahan within the division seem to be remote at best. But, as the rumor goes, Strahan is prepared to be difficult in the locker room if the team won't let him leave.

The presumed motivation? Money. Strahan had a lot of it. Last month, he was ordered to give a lot of it to his ex-wife.

And the Redskins are always willing to overpay. Especially at a time when the free-agent market doesn't contain many high-end performers at the position.

For the Giants, moving Strahan could be a short-term curse but a long-term blessing. The team has been dysfunctional for several years, and the continued presence of guys like Strahan has not helped the situation. At all.

With TiVi Barber and LaVar Arrington and Luke Pet-a-goat already gone, it makes sense (in our view) to continue to clear out the chronic malcontents. Like Strahan. And Plaxico Burress. And Jeremy Shockey.

Strahan, 35, is under contract with the Giants for the next two seasons, at salaries of $4 million per year. He missed seven games due to injury in 2006.

Before anyone says that they want to sign him all I have to say is NO!

If he does go to the Redskins, good luck is all I can say. Washington has not been a very kind place to free agents the last several years. On the other hand, if it is all about the money, probably not a better place to go. Just ask Adam Archuletta, the highest paid special teams player in NFL history.

I hate Strahan and I lost a ton of respect for Favre when he lais down twice so Strahan could get the sack record. What a joke.
