What If?

[Dirtbag59]

Apparently we would have drafted the LB from Penn State,

From JLC

- Had the Bears and Skins actually pulled that Briggs thing off, I think it may have come down to the LB from Penn State, Sears, the offensive lineman from Tennessee, Blalock, the Texas OL, or one of a few corners they liked a lot, including Charles Houston from Arkansas, for what it's worth Within Redskins Park, some people in the building really liked the Turk McBride D-Llineman who went in the second round, and they loved Eric Weddle, the do-everything, play-every-position-possible safety from Utah. I think the Chargers made a real stretch giving up as much as they did to get him, but he had a high-second round grade from some other teams too and one coach I spoke to last week compared him to a Matt Jones/Wes Welker type, only on defense. "There is no doubt you can get that kid on the football field for you right away. He's great on teams, he's coachable, he's a really good kid."

-- Have to wonder if there would have been have some push for Jarrett, the USC WR, at 31 had the Briggs trade gone down, as well?
