Redskins Looking to Move Up

The Washington Redskins are enamored with QB Haskins and are considering a move up to pick #2 or #3.

The Redskins are going to need to give up insane draft capital to get that high. And for Haskins? That would surely be a Dan Snyder move.

Yes beautiful! If it was me, besides swapping their initially 1st round pick I would want their 2nd and both their 3rd round picks this year. Plus their 1st rounder for next year. I would probably ask for one of their young (under 25) and up and coming players too.

I don't see the Skins giving up that much. However, I would take this and next years first, this year's second and a third somewhere. We could rebuild the Oline with those picks.

We could rebuild if we could trust this idiot GM.

Looks like the Skins have picks 1-3, but no 4th because of Clinton-Dix deal. If they want to jump from 15 to 3, I’d ask for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and next year’s 1st.

If anyone’s crazy enough to do it, it’s Snyder and Co. If they really love a QB and have to have him, they just might pull the trigger.

For that much of a drop, I would want this year's second, a high pick next year, and I would want Chase Roullier, their young center.

Lol, I know but I figured they want to trade with us. So let’s go high, knowing they most likely won’t go for it and let them sell us down abit.

Does it matter who the Jets have at GM? No matter who it is, Jets fans will call him an idiot.

Well when you fail as much as our GM's have then its justified.

Even when they don't fail, they get bashed. It's the armchair mentality at its worst. A bunch of guys who play either fantasy football or Madden, or both, thinking they know everything about the game.

The worst is how good moves are written off, while bad moves are highlighted. A GM makes good draft picks and they're lucky guys fell to them. A GM makes good trades, and it's deemed irrelevant. On the other hand, other teams that have about the same track record on both draft picks and trades are heralded as being geniuses, as their good moves are highlighted and their failures swept under the rug.

Great post.

Yep. And...........because we're not just giving up a spot, we are passing on a game changing player as well, I wouldn't settle for less than their 1st & 2nd this year and next year as well. The price is always high when you move up to get a QB and at #3 it should be very high.

It should be a high price. Word is building of the Skins' interest, and there is precedent for the cost of moving from top 3 to around the 15, 16 range - and it is a big haul.

It better be a really big haul. The Skins want Haskins and our #3 spot is the only way they can be sure to get him, unless, they can get into the #2 spot which is highly unlikely.

Soo, cbssports is reporting that Snyder is taking control if the draft, the 1st round anyway.
Snyder’s son apparently went to school with Haskins, in the DC area.
Snyder has an affinity for the kid, supposedly.
He’s trying to get into the top 5, the cards, 9ers and Bucs are in NFC so I can’t see him giving those teams a haul of picks.
Jets at 3 are the play.

Word is also spreading the Raiders like Haskins and would consider him at #4. Perfect. So you have the Giants loving Daniel Jones, and the Skins, Raiders, and Dolphins are intrigued by Haskins.

The QB interest in this draft is emerging, and it seems as though it’s bigger than what we guessed. This is a perfect situation for the Jets. Get some team to sell the farm for that pick. We can rake in a lot of return for that pick, and still get impact players this year in the 1st and 2nd round.
