Re: Report: Jason Smith is in Negotiations to be No. 1 pick
Good news for the Redskins in this sense: If the Lions decide to go OT at #1 they will probably have to move up in round 1 if they want to land one of the three QBs at the top of the draft. Leaving out Jay Cutler (since I don't think he gets traded) the Lions probably couldn't even count on having Josh Freeman fall to them at #20 since Tampa Bay picks before them at #19. If Sanchez or Stafford falls (or if the two QBs go early and Detroit starts to panic about landing Freeman before the bottom falls out of the QB crop) the Lions might be in the market to move up to #13 (which is the Skins ideal scenario).
Picks #20, #65, and a 5th gets the Lions up to #13 by the chart. That would be a nice trade for Cerrato and Company. There really is not a way for the Skins to get picks #20 and #33 unless they start dealing players or future picks, and I suspect Detroit values that pick at the top of the 2nd too highly to deal it anyway.
