Agreed. Anyone who thinks we should draft Chase no matter what is an idiot. We are two months away from the draft. The skins should not be "locked in" on any one player or any one approach (trade up/down or stay put).

In a vacuum, the team could have Tua graded higher. We don't know their board. Even THEY don't know their board yet. And even if Chase Young ends up as their #1 rated player, there is a clear scenario (with Detroit) where they trade down to #3 and still get him. The team reportedly loves Okudah. If they could trade back a few spots, get Okudah and a haul of picks to address other needs with elite talent, they'd have to consider it. And there is a possibility Miami or someone else makes them an offer they simply cannot refuse.

Bottom line is that, unlike a lot of narrow-minded fans, the skins are being incredibly smart. They are doing everything they can to drive up the value of the #2 overall pick. Rivera is going to ensure that, by the time the team is on the clock, they will be able to compare the best player on their board (whoever that is) with the best trade offer possible. And then act accordingly. Bravo to Rivera and Kyle Smith. It is so refreshing to have competent decision makers running the show.

Re: Chase Young or Three First Round Picks?

Wouldn't you love to draft for Miami this year? They have fourteen draft picks, three firsts, two seconds, and three fifths among them.

Here they are listed: 1-5, 1-18, 1-26, 2-39, 2-56, 3-70, 4-142, 5-153, 5-162,
5-173, 6-185, 6-197, 7-246, 7-250.

They can do just about anything they want to do.

Re: Chase Young or Three First Round Picks?

A stunning statistic regarding first-team All-Pro players and the Washington Redskins came out today. It's one that could explain why the struggles have been very real over the two decades.

In a list compiled by Jared Tokarz, it was revealed at the 31 of 32 teams have featured at least one first-team All-Pro performer over the last ten years. The only team that hasn't?

You guessed it, your very own Redskins.
https://247sports.com/nfl/washington...7/#118281757_1

The last Skins all pro? P Matt Turk in the 90s.

2019 - Tress Way is the only player on our team who we can say is the best at his position.

We need elite talent. We need elite players to make elite plays and elite impact on the game. We have a bunch of young players, we have a handful of really good players ... we have zero game changers.

Get me the game changer edge rusher please. (Sure wait the 10 minutes to see if a team gives you a ridiculous haul and dont pull an Orakpo ... but I dont see a team offering enough me enough to back off Chase Young).

Re: Chase Young or Three First Round Picks?

Say Miami offers you #5 and #18 for the 2nd pick.

Lions take Chase but you can get Simmons and Jeudy in the first rd. 2 day 1 starters right away. Would u do it?

You cray to even ask it. Pass rush is everything. And with this draft strong WRs can be had in the 3rd round.

Jeudy looks like he'll be a player, but this still isn't nearly enough.

Agreed, if Miami is offering all of their 1st round picks this year or two 1st rounders and their #1 next year, then we should def talk.

Re: Chase Young or Three First Round Picks?

I want a fast, talented, nasty defense. Chase Young pushes you there.

Chase Young and Montez Sweat growing together wrecking shop gets you there. A great pass rush is the best passing defense.

Re: Chase Young or Three First Round Picks?

I just don’t buy the Detroit trade idea. They know we are taking Chase Young, no matter how much smoke has been generated. If the Lions want Tua, they just wait until after we draft Young.

I know many want us to be offered a monster, RG3-type deal. But everyone knows we want Chase Young. The real trades may start with Detroit, not with us.
Sorry to be a buzz-kill.

You're probably right. But ...

What if the Raiders make a huge trade with Detroit to move into the 3rd spot, positioning themselves for a Tua grab?

Would that make Miami say "Fuck it. Pull the trigger with Washington"? Maybe ...

I think that's the only way we have a SHOT at a mega-deal with someone.

I'm pretty excited about having Chase Young though. The idea of him on that DLine for years to come is intoxicating.
