Seems like an easy argument, but Peters has shown how much of a headache he can be when he does not get his way. If I were the Eagles, I would have held on to that pick. What sucks for us is now we pretty much know that the Bills are going after an OT and they pick before us. Looks like we will be after a DE or OLB unless we either trade up, or get lucky.

Well the Redskins did have to pounder going after Jason Peters cause we in the pass gave picks away for older vets to fill a need. Thats why we only have 5 picks now. How or why would we try to trade up knowing we would need to give up more picks this year or next. This thinking has put us chasing picks every year. Lets just suck it up and keep our 13th pick or if we get a chance to aquire 2 lower 1st round picks then pull the trigger. More picks doesn't necessary mean better players if you can't evaluate talent. I do believe it does have some luck envolved with drafting the right guys especially in the 5th,6th, and 7th rounds.
