1) Don't want to, but if the offer is made on draft day, and the right player is there, it can't be off the table. Smoot has shown a lot of toughness, but there will likely be a contract situation next year, and that won't be the case with a mid-first round pick. My vote is no, until I know exactly what's available with the pick.
2) Owning the number one pick doesn't make sense for the Skins. If a deal is in place to then trade #1 to, say, the Giants for the #4 and their 3rd & 4th round picks, then bye-bye Trotter (or Trottier - if he's leaving, it's fun to pretend he's French).
