Watson wouldnt be a bad pick up. And you may not think Dawkins made much of a difference in the NFC Championship games but he helped get them there. WHen you have a guy like that in yoru secondary you think twice about all your throws. Personally if I were the Eagles id move him to strong side, I think he woudl be more prodcutive over there.

Id like to see the skins pick up some extra picks, but keep the 5th pick and our first rounder next year. If they want to trade some players and later pick then ok, but atleast try to give us the chance to get another first round talent next year

Watson sounds like a great alternative to KW2 and he won't come with the headache of dealing with the Postons.

Agreed, I just can't help but feel that he may be the right guy for us in every aspect of what Gibb's want's from a TE/h-back, on and off the field, taking taylor with the #5, then dealing some pick's/ player's to jump back into the middle of the first and early to mid 2nd seem's much more economical as well as realistic, I think if we came away with taylor, 1 of the d-linemen, [take your pick we should get a good one in the middle of the first] as well as watson should really fill the need's we have right now, I would be estatic if we came away this year's draft with that combo of player's.

Im so glad Smoot isnt with the Postons anymore, that will make him a lot easier to keep.

One apprehension about attempting to draft with #5 pick Taylor, and then trading down to pick up Ben Watson which will be in my estimation another first round draft pick is the potential cap ramifications both this season and in years to come.

The Canuck would be able to elaborate with his insight on the past years numbers but in my estimation it will cost a 10-12m signing bonus for Taylor and a 1-2m bonus for Watson. Where is the money going to come from this season fellas let alone down the road. We all ready have a credit card mentality to spending and cap budget without the 13-15m dollars in bonus money these players bring us. Mean while in the scenario that we trade for 21, 32 and 56 picks the bonus money would be substantially less (approx 8m cumulatively I am guessing)

Who knows what the Skins will do in two of three years when we have to cut players with huge salaries then take huge hits for their signing bonuses

i seen a rumor going around that we may trade our draft pick to the patriots if Sean Taylor is still available when our pick comes. It would be for their 1st, 2nd, and ty law. how true do you guys think this is.

Diehard, the Patriots have two picks in each of the first two rounds. So have you heard specifically which picks they'll be giving up? Problem I would have with the trade is with Smoot and Springs where does Law fit in (would he play safety?) and financially can we afford Law, plus the draft picks

From what I have been able to come up with on various draft board's it look's like watson will go in the top 1/3 of the second rd., If he does jump up the board that far [1st rd.] we may look at peter's as an alternative, he look's like more of what we want out of a TE, he probabaly would need some work if we wanted to use him in the passing game, although he is said to have good hand's, If we did take watson late 1st we would have to find a lineman in the 2nd rd., I as a lot of us really am not that up to date with how we can fit these player's in money wise? But I think we will find a way.

law's contract is way too pricey for us in our cap situation, but on the off chance (probably less than 1% chance) he would rework his contract, does he have the size and durability to possibly play free safety? I'm more interested in getting the 1st rounders and one of the 2nd rounders and then trading pick 21 down and picking up a 3rd and/or 4th plus a late first rounder and then drafting the best safety available, if worth the pick, or best d-lineman. draft jake grove with the #32 pick and then use the 2nd rounder on either boulware(possibly convert him to safety) or draft sean jones if he's still available. Our new 3rd or 4th rounder could then be used to still draft a young player who would be a good if not perfect fit for the h-back spot.
