Can anyone think of some notable trades in the top layer of the draft for a QB?

Phillip Rivers and Eli Manning come to mind, of course.

Michael Vick and LaDainian Tomlinson... I know a lot of people don't like Michael Vick, but he DID help the Falcons win a lot of games.

Mark Sanchez? Jury's out on that one.

Unless their running game falls apart, Mark Sanchez has the chance of being successful with the Jets for years to come.

It sounds more like a swap, they draft Bradford, we draft Berry and then we exchange them?

Ok maybe not, this is what happened in the Rivers/Manning swap:

"The top pick of the draft hasn't been traded since 2004, when San Diego shipped Eli Manning to the New York Giants. The cost was high then -- first-round pick Phillip Rivers, plus a third-rounder in 2004 and first- and fifth-round picks in 2005. You can bet that if the Rams are listening to offers for the No. 1 pick in this year's draft, the asking price will be similarly high. (The Redskins hold the No. 4 overall pick, the same one the Giants held in '04 when they traded for Manning.)"

That's a lot of f'ing picks.

Yes. Hence my attempt to inject players such as JC or Carter into the deal, to lessen the draft pick blow.

Hey, I'm not saying that we should do it. I'm just trying to explore someone else's scenario. Since the Lambs need a QB, it seems reasonable to include JC in a projected deal. And if Shanny is madly in love with Bradford, I'd rather him give up Carter than a draft choice.

If the Rams are smart, they would ask for picks. No one is going to give up a number one for a two picks and players.

I think that more likely would be that we draft Clausen, and trade Clausen, Andre Carter, LaRon, and our 6th rounder next year for Sam Bradford

Yeah I never really considered the Rams doing something like that but you really never know. Let's just hope they draft Bradford and keep the lions taking their DT of choice and the Bucs not taking Berry. I think we'll have lots of say with our draft pick and get a lot of phone calls on April 22nd.

That may be true.

I am a fan of Bradford but I'm not sure that I am a fan of giving away the farm to draft him, especially since it is easy to just take Okung and feel satisfied with the pick.

While Bradford might be worthy of being picked first, he's definitely not a let's give up the farm, can't miss prospect.

I don't see the Skins parting with any future picks to move up and draft Bradford. If he doesn't fall to us, I just don't see him becoming a Redskin. But...as someone else said, you never know.

I've read about, heard about, and thought about so many scenarios for the Redskins' draft that my head is spinning. I think I'll just forget about it for now and see what happens as the offseason unfolds.

Well a lot of impatient fans would give up the farm for Bradford. I hope that our FO shows some discipline on this matter.

I'll concede that point. Michael Vick really did a lot for the Falcons early in his career. However he was a little faster and D-Coordinators outside of Tampa didn't know how to gameplan for him. Once they learned how to force him to stay back and pass he became average. If Vick ever wants to be a great NFL QB he's going to have to evolve and learn to read NFL defenses, at least at a level much more advanced then he is now.
