We could even then turn around and send Springs to the Lions. Or send him to the Broncos and have them throw in a 2nd rounder.
I don't care if we miss out on a tip top talent at 6. I'm not going to kid myself and pretend that we don't have depth problems at TE, OL, S, and D Line. We need multiple players, not one stud.
If we are forced to pick at 6, then Alan Branch is my guy. But I'd much, MUCH prefer this deal with Denver, which seems like a very plausible deal according to LaCanfora:

Schneed - if the Skins got that in a trade I would be quite happy. One more thing to add to you pluses - in addition to having much more depth in the trade analysis you provided by trading down from #6 to all the things you said it would probably help tremendously with the salary cap because I would think that the #6 pick is going to demand a ton of money with a huge signing bonus. Last year Vernon Davis was the 6th pick by SF and his contract was a five-year contract worth roughly $23 million.
To me the gems of the draft are rounds 2-4 - relatively cheap as far as contract demands but a lot of them are talented enough to start in the nfl if you got a good scouting department.
