They're just saying that so that Cleveland will want to trade up from the 7th

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

This year's draft class is loaded with talent and the Redskins having the 4th overall pick , a 4th, 5th and 7th round pick have to make a move to get some of that talent. Trading down would be the smartest thing to do since they have needs in the OL and LB positions as the primary areas of need. You can still get a decent OL late in the 1st/2nd round, he might not start right away or he might after 8 games, you go out and sign someone like Flozell Adams as insurance with experience (who gives a shit that he played for the cowboys, McNabb played for the eagles) and fill the LB holes.

I'm glad I took my vacation this week (tomorrow's my birthday too). I'm getting stressed out.

If this is true, why trade for McNabb. Campbell could have had his body beat down behind the oline in transition for a year before the new guy is thrown to the wolves.

If this is not a smoke screen, it sure is a head scratcher.

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!

Why the hell are we even paying attention to f'ing PFT?

Prepare yourself for crazy stuff like this in the next couple of days.

I think they are dying to get more picks, and realize they are in a bad spot. No one wants to move up into the #4 spot, and give up picks. They don't have a valuable 2nd round pick anymore to trade, and no one will trade for their 4th round pick. They can't use any of their current picks to parley into additional picks.

And no one will give any decent value for their current players; Haynesworth, Campbell, McIntosh, Carter, and they are stuck in no man's land of a great draft class with no chance to take advantage.

In short, They are Screwed, and They Know it!

It was 2 weeks ago that they traded the 37th overall pick for Donovan McNabb. If they just now realized now that this is a historically strong draft class, they are unfit to run a team.

Next thing we know Shanny will be selling the Brooklyn Bridge.

Skinny Tee · 04-19-2010, 12:53 AM

So is Haynesworth's retention a smokescreen or are the trade bait rumors the smokescreen?

Nomad · 04-19-2010, 12:56 AM

Much to do about nothing..... if we get berry, landry moves to SS, I'm betting we trade back!

HAPPY BDAY DIEHARD! Basically everything coming out of DC is a smoke screen. Just watch the 18 minute interview with MS on redskins.com. He didn't really answer a single question posed to him and niether did Allen.

Man after everything I've seen on Berry he looks like the real deal. I've never been more impressed with a prospect that I knew we didn't stand a chance of drafting. He's gonna be starting from day 1 and I'd be very suprised if he didn't become a Pro Bowler within the next 2 seasons.
