SkippyX Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 The Redskins should get a treasure of picks for that #2 selection. I don't want them to do that though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Buck Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 The Redskins could take Tua but I'm guessing it's probably just a smokescreen they are throwing out there to see if they can drum up any interest from another team to trade up to their spot. I'd say the chances are that they stay put and go with Chase Young. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lions will either get Young at 3 or a boatload of picks from a team that wants Tua. We are in the best spot in the draft. Meanwhile, Skins take Young, have no LT, pretty much 1 WR, an average a best QB, and no 2nd rd pick. But you guys will have a nasty redundant DL.

Explain to me how you're in the best spot in the draft when the Redskins can either get Young or a boatload of picks from a team that wants Tua... and will get more of a boatload than the Lions would at #3. Also, you're big on believing draft rumors, right? Well, don't be surprised if you don't get the boatload you're hoping for... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you trade back it will be to a team that wants a QB. WE GET YOUNG. If you take Young WE GET MORE PICKS. Its pretty simple! Really it would be kinda dumb for the Redskins to stay at #2 and take Young by looking at their roster. Their DL is the strength of their team with Sweat, Payne, Allen, Kerrigan and Anderson. They need an OT, CB, WR, RB. They have no 2nd rd pick. They NEED to trade down honestly. Edited April 3, 2020 by BZski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys dont even have that many picks so teams know you most likely will take less. Especially considering all your needs. Teams know you guys pretty much NEED to trade back.

Depends on Trent Williams trade, imo. You're actually 100% correct in your assessment that we should trade back, if we don't trade Trent. We don't pick again till the 3rd round after the #2 overall pick. It would be smart to trade back & take a bounty for that #2 overall pick. Even with passing on a player like Chase Young. We could net 3 picks in the top 50 potentially by trading back. However, if we somehow do get a 2nd or a 3rd & a player hypothetically for Trent? Then we can afford to stay put & take Chase Young #2 overall. Then wait to see who's there in the 2nd Rd, or trade up in the 2nd Rd with the addition of extra picks from the Trent Williams trade. That's why it's imperative, that we trade Trent by draft day, or preferably before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats a great point but IMO teams will wait until after the draft and give upa 2021 draft pick for Williams or you guys will not get the full value of Williams if you want 2020 picks (3rd rd).

You guys dont even have that many picks so teams know you most likely will take less. Especially considering all your needs. Teams know you guys pretty much NEED to trade back. The draft isn't about filling holes. At least not for teams that are looking to build long term. You take the best talent available unless you are blown away by an offer. And lol at acting like the Lions have so many less holes than the Redskins. You're one of the 3 teams we beat last year. I know it was without Stafford, but your roster just isn't that impressive, and it just got worse with the loss of Slay. At least we have hope with a new regime coming in. You're still stuck with a coach most players seem to hate. And for the record, I don't think we're in the best spot. I think the Bengals are. But I know we're in a better spot than the Lions in this draft. The logic is pretty simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTTRDynasty Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 The scouts The Athletic recently spoke with two long-time scouts willing to make picks for Washington. They were free to select any prospect or make a first-round trade. However, since they aren’t focused on the Redskins’ depth chart nor willing to spill their team’s state secrets unprompted, I helped narrow the scope by specifying position needs and providing names of players to consider. Some of those needs and prospect examples are listed below. The transcript was edited slightly for clarity. Round 1 (2) — Chase Young, DE, Ohio State Forget 15 minutes. Neither scout needed more than 15 seconds with this selection. Scout 1: “Take Chase. Good pick. Rivera likes DL, so any other argument doesn’t matter.” Scout 2: “Chase at two. No trade out. Next question.” https://theathletic.com/1716377/2020/04/02/two-nfl-scouts-one-agent-and-seven-rounds-of-redskins-only-mock-draft-picks/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhorse Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Hey, there are a lot of Colt fans who think the team is going to still trade up for Love after just signing Rivers. I believed that kind of thinking was just Colt fans.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
