I don't know if you guys have ever used the Draft Value chart, but it is this chart that assigns points to each draft pick so GM's don't make another Mike Ditka mistake or Hershel Walker trade.

According to the Chart, this deal means you are giving away your 6th and the equivalent of a 16th pick for Briggs and the 31st pick.

A first rounder at 16 is usually a starter and pretty cheap relatively speaking in terms of the salary cap.

I don't think this deal makes sense for the Redskins.

Not sure how we are lossing two picks with this deal. We are just trading our #1 for theirs.

Sorry, I wasn't clear enough.

Your 6th pick is worth - according to the chart - a 16th and a 31st.

So Briggs, in effect, is assigned the value of a first round #16 pick.

I think what he means is that we are getting two first round picks for this trade. Heres the math

The Redskins pick is worth 1600 points
The Bears pick is worth 600 points
The 16th pick is worth 1000 points. This means that we're assuming that Briggs is worth the right to pick 16th overall in the draft.

Well if we find a strong D linemen at 31 and get Briggs we will all say wow who wrong we were. I hope so! Note: Danny and Gibbs get another pick in the deal!

I hope the deal goes through solely for the fact that this thread is sure to challenge the dominant SHFT thread for post count.
