(updated title): Make Your Day One Redskins Draft Selections (Rounds 1-2)

[Dirtbag59]

1st - Traded for Chad Johnson or Anquan Boldin

2nd - Charles Godfrey - CB/S - Iowa - Great combination of physical tools and versitility

3rd - Kendall Langford - DT/DE - Hampton - Aggresive inside pass rusher that can also play end. They could also draft a guy like Marcus Harrison from Arkansas if he falls this far with Langford off the board

3rd Comp - Tony Hills - T/G - Texas - The Redskins get a talented O-line prospect that unfortunatley comes with injury concerns

5th - Chad Rhinehart - G/T - Northern Iowa - Redskins try to make sure they come away from this draft with at least one good lineman by drafting two guys from the same position like they have in years past, but then again 5th round picks have had trouble making the team in recent years.

6th - Kevin O' Donnell - QB - San Diego State - The Redskins get a raw and talented QB prospect that has the type of mobility and arm you look for in a West Coast QB

7th - Alvin Bowen - OLB - Iowa State - Redskins get a productive OLB that will be sure to be a hit on special teams

7th - Joey Haynos - TE - Maryland - Big local product that can contribute as a 2nd TE in passing plays

7th - Andrew Crummy - C/G - Redskins get another local product that can play Center.

Woah, wait a minute! How is that possible???!!!! Don't you know that trading for Chad Johnson means we're not allowed to make any other moves. There's no way, NO WAY, we can make a trade for Chad Johnson (getting a big-time WR to help the offense and Campbell) and still get a potential a CB, DE, OL (two in fact!), not to mention depth at other positions to! How is that even possible!!!!

Your logic has no place here

The problem with that is just because you draft a CB and so on doesn't mean he can play, there is a reason they are not projected in the early part of the draft. We should be looking to replace starters with youth not find backups for them.

You've completely lost me. I have no idea at all what you're trying to say.

He's saying (not very coherently) that earlier picks are the most valuable because they are more likely to produce young starters than later picks, which are more likely to produce backups or players who don't make the team.

Basically, that if you are going to trade picks, it makes sense to trade the later ones and use the earlier ones.

It's overly simplistic, but generally I agree.

I see. Where's the delineation between early and late? We have at this moment a 2nd and two 3rds. Is that not worth anything?

It's relative, I guess. For us, since we have a huge gap between the 96th pick and the 5th rounder, I guess it would be there.

The 2nd and 3rds are going to be important, but without the first to land the premier talent we are looking for, the overall product would be pretty lackluster.

This team's only weakness is a lack of youth, and giving up the best shot at bringing in quality youth isn't going to fill that hole.
