Anyway, like I mentioned in another thread there is some speculation that the Redskins feel they can trade into the top of the 2nd round and get someone like Balmer or especially Campbell

I don't think the Colt's have enough to trade up unless they offer a 1st rounder next year, and thats very risky considering that we're planning on filling roster holes through the draft.
New Orleans would be good, but who would they target at 21. I doubt they're looking for another reciever and if Merling is the guy I would consider Jacksonville a more likely suitor.
Now that I think about it, the bait for New Orleans to move up would be a corner like Jenkins or Talib especially if they take Keith Rivers with the 10th overall pick. They also might want to make a move for
Gosder Cherilus or Kenny Phillips if they feel that they won't be able to get him at their spot in the second round. Apparently Balmer is also a slight possiblity but as I said before, I doubt that anyone trades back into the 1st round for Balmer. He's more the type of guy that falls to you.
Theres also the possiblity that if Albert falls to us then we could get a team that wants to trade up. The Steelers are possible here since they recently broke their draft day tradition of not trading up last year. In other words it's possible that the Steelers might trade with the Redskins to persuade them not to take Albert or trade with the Buc's. The price would be a 1st and a 3rd.
