Another Pick In The 3rd Round?

I wonder if the Redskins have the same sense (or maybe they already know) as this guy of what they're getting and with an extra 3rd round maybe that's another reason why they've been patient in free agency. Or if they get that extra 3rd round pick they can use their own as part of a trade...Chad Johnson?

If we get an extra 3rd rounder, we should be able to muster 3 immediate or future starters out of the draft. Also, our approach to free agency would certainly make more sense if we do get the pick.

I guess my question is, really the main guy we lost last year was Derrick Dockery....but we also signed Fletcher/Smoot.....so wouldnt we have signed just as highly stouted FA's as the one loss of Dockery?

I mean, I'm not complianing, cause that would be awsome, but does anyone know how exactly this is figured out before I get too excited?

I believe the fact that Smoot was cut made him ineligible in the calculation. I KNOW he isn't included in Minnesota's calculations because he was cut and did not become a true UFA due to an expiring contract.

Yeah I think this guy's blog is being reposted around the Internet

I had no idea this was a mathematical equation. I thought it was subjective.

Well, good for us!

Little known fact. Tom Brady was not only a 6th round pick, but he was a 6th round compensatory pick. So these picks can definitely go a long way

That is just sweet...this makes up for us not having a 4th!!!

i'll update the complete draft order with these and newly traded picks this weekend.

After reading this through, it appears that he's saying the acquisition of Fletcher = the loss of Duckett. I question whether we could actually get 2 7th rnd. picks for Wright & Holdman given their playing time. Holdman was on IR all year.

the 3rd round pick would be sweet! If we got even 1 7th rounder that would just be gravy. If we got 2 I'd be really surprised, but very happy. Given our recent success w/undrafted free agents, I like the chances of a 7th rounder making the team.
