Oh, I understand that part perfectly. It is a mindset created by the inconsistent approach taken by the FO.
Still, that's no reason to pass up the opportunity to draft a potential starter in the 1st round.
As long as it's not Cushing ill be fine with whomever

Emmitt? Low blow guys, low blow. No I was referring to Alex Mack. I don't think he's going to fall to the second round. Someone is going to snag him up. This guy is going to be sought after by a lot of teams.

Once I traded it, I'd probably try to use it.

I don't get it? It doesn't end with a question mark?

I must be. I usually don't miss things like that.

My biggest concern w/ trading out of the 13th overall is missing out on true 1st round talent. My biggest fear going into the draft is Vinny trading out of the 1st round completely... if this is the only trade scenario available we ought to stay at 13 IMO.

I think I'd like to see us trade down to later in the first if possible. Of course it takes two to dance and we'd need to get another pick that could give us starter level talent. To me a later 1 and 3 could offer us two picks to get starters and if we evaluate talent well then there's a good chance that an OLinemen we take with one of them would be better than one of the "top" ones we are looking at now. If we could trade down to the low 20's maybe Mack is there and then we can take a more project like RT in the 3rd?

It's probably too risky if the Skins expect to get a starter in a position of need in the 1st Round. We're lucky to be at #13 because there won't be many "sure things" beyond that point.
You are talking about dropping 7 or 8 slots. That's a lot when you consider that some of the intervening teams have similar needs to our own.
