If the season ended today Washington would pick 5th, and Cleveland would pick 6th!! (2004 Sean Taylor).

I think they have 4 like us, but I still think they pick ahead of us

If you really think about it, we should root for KC to win this weekend. I'm not gonna root against the skins, but if they lose and KC wins, We would pick at #4.

NFL.com has us picking at #5 if you look at the overall league standings.

if clausen or bradford is there when we pick, we will have trade partners. if they are both gone, then there will be some issues, imo.

In the 2009 Draft Cleveland traded its first-round selection (5th overall, used to select Mark Sanchez) to the Jets for the Jets' first- and second-round selections (17th overall, traded to Tampa Bay, who selected Josh Freeman; and 52nd overall, used to select David Veikune), Kenyon Coleman, Brett Ratliff, and Abram Elam.[source 1].

A trade is possible.

i would think that with the salary cap going away, the rookie craziness, as far as the money, would come to an end? is this correct to think this way?

Unless a miracle happens, there won't be a change in the way rookies are paid in 2010 because there won't be a new CBA in place. However, it would seem that a rookie pay scale is part of the current bargaining and such a scale might make it into any CBA which will go into effect in 2011 or 2012.

According to this unofficial site, the Redskins currently have a weaker strength of schedule and thus would pick ahead of the Browns:

Find out how Vinny would have used the pick and do the opposite. The two most tempting players available at the top are Suh and Berry obviously. The smart pick Okung. Unfortunately I think the best way to go about safety is the same way we did with the offensive line all these years. Ignore it and hope for the best.

If we still suck at safety next year then we would should consider a change but for now the best hope might be that a new coordinator can use Landry properly. I'm not willing to give up on him just yet, as horrible as he has been this year. It might be a reach but it might be a combination of Blache's mismanagement of the pass defense and a lack of confidence on Landry's part stemming from the problems with the scheme. Of course maybe Landry has truly regressed in all aspects of the word and he's truly become a lost cause, but we have been drafting DB's throughout the Vinny era so I think it's time to neglect that part of our team.

no one. there is no way in hell we trade a top 10 pick down in the first round unless we get the real short end of the stick i have been sayin it for a while but most people on here seem to think all we have to do is say we want to trade picks and someone will come running

[CultBrennan59]

Who says we win this weekend since San Diego will probably be playing second stringers? I could see this happening, not that I want us to win, cause we're only hurting ourselves now at this point if we win games cause our draft pick will be worse

How does everyone feel about this Eric Berry kid ? I know we don't "need" a FS or SS but it sure would be nice to have that kid in the back with Landry ...

Actually we do need a FS so LL can go back to SS. Berry would fit that bill perfectly.
