Whos available at 21 and 42?

[SmootSmack]

I have a question about this thread title actually. I thought the Broncos had the #21 and #56 picks (not #42).

Did I miss something?

We could even then turn around and send Springs to the Lions. Or send him to the Broncos and have them throw in a 2nd rounder.

I don't care if we miss out on a tip top talent at 6. I'm not going to kid myself and pretend that we don't have depth problems at TE, OL, S, and D Line. We need multiple players, not one stud.

If we are forced to pick at 6, then Alan Branch is my guy. But I'd much, MUCH prefer this deal with Denver, which seems like a very plausible deal according to LaCanfora:

I agree with everything you said except no one is going to give a 2nd for Shawn Springs. Probably more like a 4th or 5th. The trade with Denver would be GREAT, though the Skins would probably have to move one of those other picks if they wanted to move up and get Okoye, I don't think he'll be around at 21.

Here are some numbers from the Draft Value Chart that every NFL team uses.

- The Redskins 1st Rd pick (#6 overall) is worth 1600 pts

- The Broncos 1st Rd Pick (#21 overall) is worth 800 pts
- The Broncos 2nd Rd Pick (#56 overall) is worth 340 pts
- The Broncos 3rd Rd Pick (Traded from Washington) (#70 overall) is worth 240 pts

The total of the first three Bronco picks is 1380, which leaves 220 points (the value of the 74th - i.e. high 3rd round pick) left to make up. I think you could definitely say Dre Bly is worth a third round pick (but no more than a third round pick) so that would be a very fair trade to all parties involved. If the Broncos covet the 6th overall pick than I think the Skins should make the deal, but the should take NO LESS than the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and Bly in the deal. They always give up too much in these draft day deals (Bailey AND a 2nd for Portis? A 3rd for Brunell? A 3rd and a 4th for Llyod), this would finally be a fair trade, I hope they pull the trigger.

P.S.

Don't get me wrong, I like having Portis (would love to have Bailey back though) but I still cannot understand why they also had to include a 2nd in that trade.
