How the draft looks if we trade down

Nevertheless, if Gregory isn't there but Williams is, I suppose the Skins might feel like they have to take Williams.

I wouldn't have a problem with trading down into the the middle of the first round to pick up another second round selection. One or more of Ronnie Staley, Andrus Peat, Brandon Scherff, and La'el Collins should be available in the middle of the first round. Scherff and Collins could probably play RG as well as RT.

Of course, I'm also hoping that the Skins can pick up some OL and DL talent in FA.

I would be surprised if they went for Gregory after spending a decent pick on Trent Murphy last season. I suppose a lot will depend on the new DC in terms of what he feels is the key defensive jigsaw piece come draft time. We certainly need to produce a more effective pass rush and get some pieces through FA too for the multiple needs we undoubtedly have.
