After all, trading for that draft position is likely to get the other team either a generational talent at a key Edge position or a potential franchise QB. So, if I were doing the deal, the other team would have to throw out the draft value chart and PAY ME!

That would be the only way for the other team to get the #2 pick because I know what it's worth and I'd be perfectly happy to use that pick on Chase Young. They'd have to make me question my sanity for turning down the deal in this first year of building a new team.

I haven't seen anyone here - and we're supposed to be crazy Redskins fans - come up with a trade scenario that would make me do that deal. As a group, I think we've accepted the probability that we'll have to accept less than we'd like in a trade for Trent Williams but, conversely, we're underestimating the value of the #2 pick in this particular draft. It could be a gold mine.

I like the way you think.
