[quote=Buster;668244][B]2. No Lion! Detroit wants to deal[/B]

The [URL="http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/team/detroit-lions/67045"]Lions[/URL], who pick second in the first round, have their fingers crossed that the Rams don’t pick a quarterback so they can[B] trade down with either [U]Cleveland or Buffalo[/U][/B], who apparently are in the quarterback market. The thought process is that new [URL="http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/team/cleveland-browns/67042"]Browns[/URL] czar Mike Holmgren won’t want to lose his favorite quarterback to Washington and new coach Mike Shanahan. The [URL="http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/team/washington-redskins/67062"]Redskins[/URL] are perched at No. 4, three spots ahead of the Browns. The Lions really don’t want to spend $33 million in bonus money on a defensive tackle.

How early can a team trade picks? Meaning, can it be done prior to the draft? Why wouldn't they trade the pick with us? I can't imagine that we wouldn't take additional picks and they would save some cash.

The Redskins traded their 12th and 24th picks to move up to 3rd in the 2000 draft. They did the trade in Feburary. I read some forum post in which he said other folks in the league said that the Redskins could've gotten a lot more if they waited until draft day.

Very interesting debate concerning weather the Rams should draft Bradford or Suh. The reasoning behind drafting Suh states that Spags had a great line in NY and the Rams will most likely be picking in the top 5 again next year in what is projected to be a "stronger" QB class.

Of course keep in mind things change. Last year at this time people were thinking that Bradford, McCoy, Snead, and Tebow could all be sure fire first rounders. If I remember right, it was possible that even Zac Robinson could become a first round pick. Now the only two guys that are going in the first are Bradford and Clausen.

Heck even Chris Simms and Andrew Walter were predicted to be high first round picks in their respective drafts. Ciron Black was suppose to be our first round pick this year according to Todd McShay.

Either way nice debate and reasoning for the Rams to take Suh which would give us a much better chance of getting Bradford :FIREdevil

We can trade picks starting Friday.

Re: Schefter: "There's no way" the Rams won't pick Sam Bradford at No. 1
 

Jason Campbell tendered at only a 1st round level. That proves that Shanahan wouldn't mind moving him. Bradford gone at one, Clausen isnt the answer. GO COLT BRENNAN! haha

I don't know how much you can read into that, but it definitely raises an eyebrow or two.

What makes this eye brow raising? (I really dont know the difference between a 1st round tender and what something else would have meant....)

Isn't the first round tender the highest tender? This means that if any team wants him, they're going to have to pay up, and that Redskins won't let him walk cheap.

1st and 3rd is the highest tender. Like I said before not earth shattering but definitely interesting.

another way to say the same thing:
[quote]RedskinsInsider

RT @Rich_Campbell [B]For only $124,750 more,[/B] the #Redskins could have tendered Campbell at 1st & 3rd-round level. That speaks volumes.[/quote]

Gotcha. I still don't think there's anything to get excited about. If Campbell is moved, you want to make sure you get the best compensation.

So has Campbell been tendered? I just checked RI & it still says he hasn't yet.

They are behind on the news.

I find it more interesting that that they didn't make him a first and third tender because it seems that they are actually trying to save a few bucks (good long term sign).

No one would give us a second for him last year, they probably figure that they aren't getting a first rounder for him this year. I don't think that anyone would be upset if we get a first for him and then Shanny can focus on getting "his guy", whoever that ends up being.
