Draft the best available player, we have so many holes to fill because of our stupidity, it would be just like us to trade down get 2 players who are average at best, and the Pats walk away with a perenial pro-bowler. The question must be asked, if the Pats are indeed willing to make this trade, why? Why not keep the picks and draft these players themselves? The one team that has proven to may be the best team in the NFL at spotting talent, is willing to give up 2 #1 picks to draft Landry, why?

So with a defensive line that needs a run stuffer and a pass rusher, why would it be stupid to take two first round talents to fill them as opposed to betting the ranch that one guy is going to make a difference?
How do you know that the Pats are going to pick Landry?
Since offensive and defensive success is predicated on line play, you can't honestly think the Redskins defense would be better off taking a rookie safety over two defensive linemen. If you do, you need one of Al Koken's virtual physicals.
Why do the Eagles only draft linemen with their first round picks year in and year out? Because it makes sense.
