There is so much smoke screening going on right now that you can't believe anything you hear.

That's not exactly what Snyder said. He said that we are not going to spend next year's #1 to move up. There's a difference.

Oh, come on. Our first this year, our third this year, and Laron Landry would get something done.

I'm not saying that we should do this - in fact I might kill myself if we did. I'm even on record saying that the move-up talk is just crap.

But the fact is that teams trade more than just draft picks. If we really wanted to move up, we could.

If this is what you were reading..? You might want to reread!

On to thread. I'm not expecting much from Williams. Hopefully I will be wrong.

Redskins won't trade first-round pick


Associated Press


ASHBURN, Va. -- Washington Redskins owner Dan Snyder says his team will not trade its first-round pick in 2010 in an attempt to move up Saturday in the NFL draft.
"We're not going to be trading next year's 1," Snyder told radio station ESPN980 in an interview Friday. "We've already said that several times."
The Redskins have the No. 13 choice in the first round this year, and there has been speculation the team might want to try to move up in order to select Southern Cal quarterback Mark Sanchez.
"We're really not as a franchise comfortable trading first-round draft picks," Snyder said. "I don't think it's a wise move to keep trading that pick. It's always a little bit risky."
He noted that the only time his club recently did swap the following year's No. 1 pick, it was to acquire quarterback Jason Campbell in 2005 -- "and it worked out quite well," Snyder said.

He'll be lucky to make it through training camp. But it's not a bad signing. No risk, possibly a decent reward. I highly doubt this changes our draft strategy regarding the O-line.
