Did a new Redskins mock draft tonight. This one assumes a trade with the Dolphins for their three first-rounders. Would you rather see this kind of draft or one where the Skins take Chase Young?

I want Chase Young. I think Okudah would be great. But, if the other two picks are not stellar (not the players in your mock, but the players we actually pick) we are likely blowing a rare opportunity for a great player. I think the top tackles would all be gone at 18, too.
If we can get a player at 66 that can come in and contribute, I would be even more fine with staying put. We have some available spots.
In 1981 the Skins had a similar draft set up except we didn't have the number 2 pick. We took Mark May at 20, Russ Grimm at 69 and Dexter Manley at 119. I'm not suggesting that will happen, but Young at 2 and a good pick in the 3rd would work for me.

I TOTALLY agree, but I wanted to mock it the other way and see how it would go. Any other year I would be ecstatic with this draft, but if we pass on Chase I think we will regret it for a decade.

"Meanwhile, separately, I'm told that an NFL GM from a team within the top 7 has been calling multiple times trying to get Chase Young on the phone for a 1-on-1 entering this week, per source. Source did not want to indicate whether the call took place since."

Also
Source: The Washington #Redskins are still fielding inquiries of potential interest as of this morning, but one team in particular has already laid out a 'complete deal' for their #No. 2 pick.

I forbid any trade with the Giants for the #2 pick. Going through the misery of Lawrence Taylor's career against us was bad enough for one lifetime.
I also insist that Detroit select CY at #3 if this trade must happen.

So it seems like Ron is serious when he talks about having more picks, a trade may not even happen but if it does I will be fine with it

Of course more picks would be nice but unless it's an insane deal we can't refuse it's not going to happen

I'll hate it if we don't take Chase Young. Nevertheless, I'm always going to be a Redskins fan and I believe that RR needs to be able to do what he thinks is best for the team, so I think I'll be able to support him if he trades the #2 pick. That is, as long as he doesn't get fleeced in the trade or trade the pick to a team in our division.

If a team really wants #2 they will throw in the ammo. If it's Miami then Simmons at 5 would be nice or LT. Then the other picks can be CB/WR. It'll be fun to see what happens

We better not over think this. I want at least 4 1st round picks over the next 3 years and at least 2 2nd round picks and 3 3rd picks.
