I think we'd have to give very serious consideration to trading down with either Cleveland or Buffalo. We could end up with either the #7 or the #9 pick plus two high picks (I accidently typed "two high pricks" but I caught the error before I posted), including our own, in the 2nd round. Considering the holes we have to fill and the quality of this year's OT crop, we could do a lot of good with those three picks.

If the Browns want to move up let's do a deal. The fourth and seventh picks in round one have a 300 point difference. We could do this deal if they trade up:

To Cleveland
1st round pick--4th overall (1800 points)

To Washington
1st round pick--7th overall (1500 points)
3rd round pick--71st overall (235 points)
5th round pick--133rd overall (40 points)
6th round pick--167th overall (25 points)

The points in this trade would be identical and the Skins would then have eight picks in the draft:
1) 7th overall
2) 37th overall
3) 71st overall
4) 100rd overall
5) 131st overall
5) 133rd overall
6) 167th overall
7) 195th overall
