Smoke screen or not? Help me out smoot smack

[SmootSmack]

They're going to draft Eric Berry at #4, trade a 3rd in 2011 and Landry to New Orleans for Jammal Brown and a 5th in 2010, send Rocky McIntosh to Seattle for a 4th, trade Carter to St. Louis for Adam Carriker and a 6th, and Haynesworth to Detroit for their 2nd which which they'll use to take Colt McCoy...

And I just made all that up. I would think it's a smokescreen, would hope so as well.

I think they want to trade back the realise they need more picks, i read a rumor on one of these post cleveland wants to trade up their 1st (7) & 2 3rd round picks if we do that now we have more picks, phily wants Berry i read another rumor their 1st (24) & 2 2nd round picks imagine pulling of both of those trade downs we would go from having 4 picks to 8 picks.

Wow...that was painful to read, or attempt to read. Wish we had spell check and a grammer check on this site. How about we just proof read what the hell we are typing!

What Tampa does at 3 is going to be critical. If they take Berry we're kind of screwed, but if they take McCoy and Berry is there for us at 4 there are at least a couple of teams who may be willing to talk with us to jump KC to get Berry

Does this assume 1) Okung is falling to 4 and 2) nobody will be willing to trade up to get him?

I take it youre presuming that Detroit would take Suh at #2. The way I see it, their top 2 needs are OT and DT. Even if we don't intend to trade Haynesworth to Detroit, we should atleast make them think that we will, so that they take Okung at 2. In turn, that would force Tampa Bay to take Suh. ensuring that Clausen, Berry, and McCoy were all available at 4. Since we've been putting out the word that we may take a QB, teams who had singled out any of those players would be interested in trading up to get th em. It would essentially be "the perfect storm" for the Redskins to trade down, since we'd have A LOT of teams calling us to trade.

I still think if Clausen is there at 4, and we don't get a good offer to trade down, we should take him. We'd have cornered the market on QBs with Clausen, McNabb and Campbell and could then trade Clausen or McNabb to the highest bidder (probably Oakland or Buffalo) with the loser getting Campbell at a premium price.

This week is going to be crazy, it reminds me of Christmas i don't think i've ever been this excited about a draft & we don't have that many picks.

It's not an effective strategy. Not that the organization is actually saying this. Anyways only SmootSmack really knows what we are up to.

Where is this Berry stuff coming from? Is that a possibilty? Getting rid of Laron? That would make my day!

I think Berry would be a FS, I heard he's a ball hawk. LL is huge have you seen the pics, he's definitely playing SS. If they both stay/drafted on the Skins.
