I can live with drafting RG3 2nd overall, and not drafting again until the third round. Besides, trading up to only the 3rd overall pick is risky. Although I believe Cleveland won't make a play to move up to #2 in the draft, it still gives them a position to pick in front of us and moving up to 3rd overall would be for nothing. It's better to move up to #2 to ensure we get the player we so desperately need.

Minimum deal would be 1,2,3 this year, and 1st next year. Maybe even a player or more picks.

I would not do that. Thats the rams dictating their initial offer, starting point. The rams have to move alil to the middle imo.

Id offer this years 1st, 3rd and 4th plus next years 2nd with the goal of eventually agreeing to this years 1st, 2nd and 3rd or this years 1st, 2nd, 5th and next years 2nd.

Supposedly, that is already the offer we made. If that does not work for you, start looking at Matt Flynn, Kyle Orton, and Payton Manning. If thats your best offer, the question becomes how much would you pay for these guys and in what order. I've got a feeling, the guy that would play for Washington out of this bunch, is Kyle Orton. You decide. The way I see it, we canfill all our big holes in free agency, with our cap room. Hopefully, we dont give a player that we need, like Orakpo. If its a player, I hope its Cooley and or Santana Moss, but that wishfull thinking.

I guess what im saying is i wouldnt make our first offer our best offer. Id stretch this out and make the rams give some kind of concession.

I think us being the front runner earlier is good b/c we get a better look into how the rams are approaching this thing and gauge their true settling point.

Offering what the rams want out of the gate and not giving negotiations a chance to come ot some middle ground is not ideal to me.

If he turns out to be the next Tom Brady, Payton Manning, or even Micheal Vick, does it matter. Like I said if there were ever a year to go all in this would be the one.

No... that's what Eskin reported we are willing to give up, meaning maximum. The same Eskin that said Manning would be a Redskin by this time now.
