How would we exactly move up?

Yes, but you're suggesting it, so how would you trade up?

Package Betts, trade next years picks.

Well but this year we're building through the draft.

Not at this point. No way. There's nothing standing out right now that would be worth giving away next year's draft already.

Giants just got Beatty, the tackle from UCONN. Great draft for them so far with Nicks, Sintim and Beatty. Damn.

I think that we'd collectively mess our pants if we had 10 picks.

Please no. I'm not sure who we would get this year who would be so much better than what we could get next year. And who would spell Portis?

Anyone can do what Betts does.

I wholeheartedly agree. I'm holding out hope we can somehow address OLB and tackle and still get a change of pace back for Portis like a Javon Ringer or Kory Sheets. Betts is uber-expendable IMO. He's not that fast, doesn't have great hands, fumbles too much, and doesn't block that well. Problem is he has very little trade value (5th round pick at best) and I doubt we'd cut him.

Then he doesn't make for good trade bait, does he?

Yeah, talk about a falling star. If Betts was ever worth anything, it would have been just after the 2006 season when he took over for Portis. He rushed for more yards over a five game stretch than any running back in Redskins history.

But now, I don't know if we could give him away.

Some surprise picks this round.

2 players have already been picked who weren't even invited to the combine.

A bunch of these guys were not projected to go until the middle of day 2.

And twice #1 picks for next year were traded to get into the 2nd round this year.
