I wonder if they will try to do a 2nd and 3rd or 2nd and 2010 1st for Boldin. They could probably call Cleveland and do a 2nd and 5th for Edwards instead. That would really suck for us if they could upgrade all of their holes like that.

So a smart front office (Philadelphia) trades draft picks for players who are disgruntled and want out of their current situation and a stupid front office (Washington) trades draft picks for players to fill holes? I guess you could say that the Eagles were smart in acquiring an extra 1st last year by trading back with Carolina, but I think they gave up too much to get Peters and will now have to give him a massive contract. Doesn't look all that brilliant from where I sit. I would be pissed if the Skins made a move like that.
Now, on the "how does this impact the Redskins" side, it does increase greatly the chances that Buffalo goes OT at #11 and increases the likelihood that none of the top four guys falls to #13.
