Willis picks Seahawks over SKINS

[SFREDSKIN]

Everybody seems to think that Detroit will be stupid to trade their 20th pick and their 2nd round pick for our 13th. I think a more realist trade would be their 20th and a 3rd round pick, I guess it comes down to how desperate they are at the time.

Well this was the team stupid enough to keep Matt Millen as their GM.

I don't think Jim Schwartz and Martin Mayhew are stupid. If people think Detroit would give up their 2nd rounder to move 7 seven spots, then you are dreaming. The 3rd round pick is the first pick of the 3rd round which is more realistic. Good luck finding a taker in that kind of deal. You could also trade the 13th pick for their 2nd, 3rd and possibly a 5th rounder. Actually, the Redskins would do the kind of deal you describe. Giving a 2nd rounder and a 6th for a on old DE.

Doesn't it all depend on who is available at 13? I don't even know if the Lions have a legit QB and dirty Sanchez may fall to that spot... but he probably won't fall all the way to 20. But i agree we're not gonna just swap our 1st for the 20th and 33rd. To get those picks we probably need to sweeten the deal packaging our 1st and last or 1st and 5th rd pick.

Well Jim Schwartz and Martin Mayhew are not the owners of the team. Who knows what they would do, but given their track records the Lions haven't made the best offseason choices in the past.

You know there are worst front offices/owners than our own. The funny thing is that my post was more of a joke on the Lions rather than an opinion on the matter discussed.
