Well, as I said earlier in this thread Broncos rumors are tied as much to them looking to save some money as anything else. End of the day I think they stay at #2. And yes, MS does like Gabbert (or Kyle really does, I forget which one), but they're not trading up for anyone. I mean never say never, but I'd be totally stunned. If anything they'll trade up from the top of round 2

No way this trade happens. We don't have enough picks to move up 8 spots, and we can t afford losing a 2nd rd pick for Gabbert

Lets swap picks, send them Fat Albert, take Gabby done and done.

I don't think I'd go get Fairley to play DE in a 3-4. If we were in a 4-3 then yes, I'd get him as a 3-tech, but in a 3-4 I think he'll be less effective.
SS33, who do you think is a pick at ten best fit to play DE in our scheme?

I honestly don't see the Skins throwing their only top two picks just to move up for one spot. They really need to, if anything at all, trade out of the #10 spot to pick up more draft picks themselves.

This seems like a difficult year to trade back, especially in the top 5. The uncertianty w/the cba/lack thereof makes it hard to determine just how much teams will have to pay these picks. I think we're in a much better spot to trade back than Denver.

This Rumor apparently has roots:
Redskins’ NFL draft rumor du jour features Broncos - The Early Lead - The Washington Post (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/early-lead/post/redskins-nfl-draft-rumor-du-jour-features-broncos/2011/04/13/AFSArtVD_blog.html)
It would cost them 1300 points in addition to their 10th pick this year to move up to #2 for Gabbert. It's a steep price to pay but as i have said time and again on here if it solves the 20 year QB problem it's a price worth paying. Franchise QB trumps all other needs. If Shanny views Gabbert as the QB that he wants to build around then GO GET HIM.
Look at it this way...would you trade Orakpo & T Williams for Sam Bradford? I love those 2 players but I would do that in a second. QB is the hardest hole to fill and you are not even in the game until you have one...

I think it would be more plausible to trade up with denver in the 2nd round giving them Haynesworth and our second round pick for their second round pick. Puts AH back in a 4-3 in the AFC West, far away from Washington.

We can't trade fatty or anyone else without a new CBA.
