I've heard about contact between the Skins and Pats but not in relation to a deal to send Portis to NE.
What I heard was that IF the Bailey/Portis deal is finalized, the Skins are looking to acquire more draft picks and would trade down from the #5 slot. Supposedly, they contacted the Pats to see if they could have the two low first rounders from the Pats for the #5 pick. The answer to that was "NO". The way it stands now - I hear - is that if the Skins get the early first round pick from the Pats they will also get a 3rd round pick with it. If they take the lower first round pick they then get a second with it. Obviously, I don't have the phones bugged in the Redskins' office - or in the Pats' office - so this is third hand info at best. Of those two choices, I would prefer they take the lower first round pick and a second roung pick. But that's just me...
