So now we use the #4 pick on a DT that we'd be sliding out to DE in a 3-4? So ill repeat, take a DLineman high in a defense based on DE's eating up blocks so the LBs can make plays? Berry would be the more "game changing" player for the redskins and their new scheme. Id like to reiterate tho, that Okung should be the pick if hes not swept up by the lions.

And how Bruce Allen keeps saying "we're gonna take the best player for the REDSKINS" makes it sound like hes bracing the Redskins nation for him to not grab an OT with that #4 pick

Suh or McCoy can play nose tackle, just like Jay Ratliff can.

Fair points, I just don't know about how Landry and Berry together would work. Of the three options given I'd be fine with any of them

Incidentally, I think Nate Allen could be a solid 2nd-3rd round option at safety

The Chiefs would stay at #5 and possibly take Bulaga (maybe McLain)

Crap thats even worse. Not only does Dorsey go to the NFC on a promising young team but Detroit gets our tackle. Oh well, I'll believe when I see it. Sure it's ignorant but I've already seen a Dorsey trade fall through with the Falcons last year. Though I do think the Falcons should have pulled the trigger considering that they just ended up drafting Jerry the DT from Ole Miss.

Crap now I'm starting to like Jevan Sneed.

Didn't realize that so much of that offense was getting the ball downfield instead of padding stats with dump offs.

Well Laron Landry belongs near the line of scrimmage in he box, timing blitzes and supporting the run. Eric Berry is a poor man's ed reed. But has potential to be a rich mans ed reed as well. Eric Berry pointed out that he has been an impact player since he stepped on Tennessee's campus and the same cant be said about McCoy or Suh. I saw nate allen during senior bowl practices and liked what i saw. But i dont think we should take a safety anywhere in this draft unless its @ 4 n Berry is there. I think we have much bigger needs for 2, 4, 5, n 7th picks. Im just saying @ 4 with Okung off the board he's easily a consideration.

Actually Smoot if you like Snead so much then make it official and send him a Facebook friend request. I already got Charles Brown, alright not really but a few years ago I became friends with Lance Ball and DeAngelo Williams. Now I don't really use Facebook anymore.

Thanks, it's always been my dream to be compared to a 15 year old girl. The thing is that online networking has really changed how much access we have to players. It's like instead of waiting for an autograph now you collect friend request, something which I haven't done since whenever DeAngelo Willimas was drafted (2006).

Interesting I don't see the Rams making this trade and taking Bradford it will be one or the other.

Depends on the draft pick compensation. If they end up giving up this year's second rounder in the deal, I doubt they'll be spending both of their top 60 picks on QBs. Some guys might, Devaney will not.

You know what trade would be really interesting for both teams? No. 1 pick to Philly for the No. 24 pick, McNabb, and DE Victor Abiamiri. Rams would still be in position to pick a quarterback early in the draft and add another impact player, would get a mediocre defensive end to play opposite Long, and McNabb to be the starter there in 2010.

Would be interesting no doubt but Philly doesn't really roll that way historically...can't remember the last time they traded into the top 5. For one thing that's a franchise that almost always stays $30+ million under the cap. They win cheap!!!

So who do you project that Philly would take with the #1 pick?

McCoy or Suh.
