And with the 6th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, the redskins select...........

Hot off the presses. I know it's Bleacher Report, but I can't get enough of the speculation on what the Skins will do in the off-season:

2012 NFL Mock Draft: Washington Redskins 7-Round Predictions | Bleacher Report

Anyone know anything about WR Damarlo Belcher from Indiana? Pre-season Biletnikoff watch list, but then got dismissed from the team? Dude is 6'5 213 LBS. Could be available in the late rounds or in free agency?

Never heard of him, but if the 'skins could land him as an undrafted free agent, I would definitely be on board.

The author says that the Skins will trade their 2nd and 4th round picks this year to move up and then he makes picks for those rounds. How is that possible?

Not sure about the 2nd but we do have two 4th round picks this year.

This is actually one of the better (one of the good?) BR columnists in my opinion.

I think he ment this years 1st and 4th round & next years 2nd round.

Just using ye olde NFL Draft Pick Value Chart tells me that to move from #6 to #2 would cost 1,000 points. That would require the Skins to pay their 2nd round and one of their 4th round picks this year plus a 2nd round pick next year. That would be the best case scenario for the Skins.

But I think the Skins would be in a bidding war to select RGIII with the #2 pick and so it would cost more than that to move up.

Bottom line: I don't think the author's draft scenario is realistic regarding the number of picks we would have after moving up. I also think that he assumed too much about good players falling to us in later rounds. He should try again.

[NYCskinfan82]

You are right, if you go by the point scale then we would have to give up more picks.

What he suggested:

That's why I believe that a potential draft day trade could result in the Redskins sending their first-rounder and one of their fourths, in addition to their first-rounder in 2013, to the Minnesota Vikings in exchange for the third-overall pick this April.

Me: I think it will take more...and I think it's the Dolphins who will trade up for RGIII

So "IF" this happens what do we do/pick .

I think it's Jones or Tannehill, possibly in a trade down. Maybe with Arizona who may be eyeing Trent Richardson

Though I spoke with someone (with knowledge) today who thinks we're going Foles in round 2 and WR in round 1 (possibly through a trade down). But he's just guessing as much as I am

Here's another one: 2012 NFL Draft Team Needs for Every Team | Bleacher Report

Offseason Needs

Quarterback: The Rex Grossman/John Beck experiment didn't work. With a better quarterback in place, this is a playoff contender. Expect Washington to draft a quarterback very early in the 2012 draft.

Tight End: Mike Shanahan's offense in Washington hasn't featured the tight end as much, but they still don't want to lose Fred Davis. If Davis leaves, drafting an athletic tight end becomes even more of a priority.

Right Guard: Will Montgomery has a strong chance to leave town, but Washington could stand to upgrade over him either way.

Wide Receiver: The play of the wide receivers in Washington has been lackluster, but some of that blame falls on the quarterbacks. If Washington is in place to grab a top-tier wide receiver through free agency or the draft, they could use the talent.

Safety: If LaRon Landry chooses to leave town, the Redskins will need to make major upgrades through the draft and free agency. Landry is one of the better young players on the defense and will be tough to replace.
