Commanders Post at The Warpath - View Single Post - Heath Miller-Trade up question

Monksdown, I don't think anyone here is advocating the idea of trading up to get Miller. The question is what are the Redskins' needs? I personally don't see any major holes, so I think it makes sense to trade down. If they get Miller in that scenario I'd be happy. I'd also be happy with a guy like Marlon Jackson at CB or a guy like Clayton at WR, because we'd be drafting to fill out depth. My point was just that I don't see a need to get stuck into one positional need on draft day because we don't have major holes. And hey, Gibbs was looking hard at Winslow last year, so you know he at least entertained the idea of having a TE like that. I don't think Gibbs is one of those coaches that refuses to change his system. I think if he felt Miller would be a good addition, he would add him and find ways to use him.

All that said, I don't think Heath Miller is on the Redskins' radar. I think they're looking more at CB and WR. But I wouldn't mind if we got Miller.
