And with the 6th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, the redskins select...........

Hot off the presses. I know it's Bleacher Report, but I can't get enough of the speculation on what the Skins will do in the off-season:

Anyone know anything about WR Damarlo Belcher from Indiana? Pre-season Biletnikoff watch list, but then got dismissed from the team? Dude is 6'5 213 LBS. Could be available in the late rounds or in free agency?

Never heard of him, but if the 'skins could land him as an undrafted free agent, I would definitely be on board.

The author says that the Skins will trade their 2nd and 4th round picks this year to move up and then he makes picks for those rounds. How is that possible?

Not sure about the 2nd but we do have two 4th round picks this year.

For any team that is need of a qb, the qb is always the number 1 need.

That is the most awesome thing I have ever read. Im actually crying right now.........

This is actually one of the better (one of the good?) BR columnists in my opinion.

I think he ment this years 1st and 4th round & next years 2nd round.

Just using ye olde NFL Draft Pick Value Chart tells me that to move from #6 to #2 would cost 1,000 points. That would require the Skins to pay their 2nd round and one of their 4th round picks this year plus a 2nd round pick next year. That would be the best case scenario for the Skins.

But I think the Skins would be in a bidding war to select RGIII with the #2 pick and so it would cost more than that to move up.

Bottom line: I don't think the author's draft scenario is realistic regarding the number of picks we would have after moving up. I also think that he assumed too much about good players falling to us in later rounds. He should try again.

You are right, if you go by the point scale then we would have to give up more picks.
