Root [Verizon] Uh oh, think I bricked

Last night as I was going to bed, I went to turn off my phone but accidentally booted it into download mode. I figured no big deal so I just went to sleep. This morning, when I press the power button, the screen doesn't turn on at all, but the phone does vibrate once. I've pulled the battery and it didn't fix the problem. I tried booting into recovery and into download and still the screen didn't show anything. Should I try seeing if I can get it connected to Odin and rebooting?

I'm a little concerned that the screen may be damaged because I dropped the phone maybe 5 or 6 days ago and cracked the outer screen. The touch screen was working without a problem, and I had ordered replacement glass for the cracked exterior glass.

Any ideas on what I should try? Is this consistent with the whole screen unit being damaged? If so, isn't that a pretty pricy fix?
 
Were you charging it last night? I think in download mode, it doesn't charge at all but not sure.
It may simply be a dead, really dead, battery:)

Edit: somehow I hit submit before I was done typing :p
Anyways, try leaving it on the charger for a few hours :)
