Can We Draft as High as 3rd Overall?

[redsk1]

Yea, there's solid talent in the late first, early second round too. I'll back whatever MS/BA do here. We do have a ton of holes on our team. It's going to take a few years of good drafts.

I don't view anything we do with that pick as being a bad move. If we draft really high profile player like Clausen, Bradford, or Okung. I wouldn't be upset. I do believe that we should trade down because it's so many super players in this draft more picks will be better for the team. One thing about this organization that needs to change is choosing big names over quality depth. That's why we are in the position we're in today.

I agree, which is why i'll be pissed if we "reach" for any specific position. I'm not expecting this team to be successful in 2010. we have a number of needs and we need to pick whatever players fill a need that are valueable at the position we take them. that said, we need to take an OT with a 1st or 2nd round pick and right now, i'm warming up to the idea of taking bradford with our first. If an OT is worthy of being picked with our 2nd rounder, then so be it. If not, we should try to trade down in the 2nd round.

If we drafted around 5 I wouldn't mind trading down to someone who wants a specific player that was currently around 8-12 and would trade that and a 2nd. Then we trade that 8-12 for a 17-24 and another 2nd or 3rd. We'll be towards the middle to end of the 1st and have 2 extra 2nds (or 1 extra and a 3rd) as well as our own.

I just don't know that there will be two "have to get him" players after 5 or so.

so we'd have the 3rd overall pick.

Redskins Opp Win% - 44%
Chiefs Opp Win% - 51%
Tampa Opp Win% - 54%

Like I said... this COULD be pretty significant regarding trading down or getting Okung....

I didn't realize that our SoS was so weak. That makes this season's performance even more abominable.

Maybe I should have put it here.....

Cleveland won to day. something we needed.
Tampa lost today. We needed them to win.

If KC wins does that still move us up atleast one spot? or are we stuck at 5th?

If KC wins and we lose, we get the fourth pick.

Thank god. Come on KC.

Kelly is looking good. How old is yoder? He seems to find the endzone. .....

Come on Chargers.

I can for-see us trading down our pick, and we'll end up picking Bradford, and draft an O-lineman in he second and 3 rounds.

I really don't mind if they do this but I just hope that the QB Shanahan wants is available when they are ready to pick them.

According to Adam Schefter (via Twitter):

Looks like Washington has the tiebreaker over Kansas City for the fourth pick in the draft, but NFL won't have official order till Monday.

So it looks like...

1. St. Louis (will they take a QB or a Defensive Player?)
2. Detroit (they need to take a defensive player...Suh or (Gerald) McCoy
3. Tampa Bay (the only team that may realistically take Okung...but maybe not)
4. Washington (I think...[I hope/pray] that this pick gives us a good chance of picking up Okung)

[Redskin Warrior]

I can see Bradford dropping like Quinn & Rodgers because of his injury

I think this correct what is CLE record & SOS

[Hail to the Redskins]

I'm thinking the Rams select a QB... now whether they trade down, or take Clausen or Bradford #1 (which would be high) ... but they NEED a franchise QB... period.

The Lions can't pass on Suh... he is the next Haynesworth... IMO

The Bucs are the ones tough to figure. Depends on who their coach is really. Morris MAY be gone... but they definitely could go for Okung.

If Bradford and Okung are gone by the 4th pick? The best thing we could do is try and trade back to the T. Williams, B. Campbell, A. Davis range (they are all rated together after Okung).... but who'd want to trade up to 4? Not likely... so then what?

[Big C]

yeah looks like we have the #4 pick. you really have to take okung there, or trade down.
