If I am in charge of the Redskins FO, then .... ....
1.} I will install these working principles for every1 to follow:
------------------------------------------------------------
a.} I will always try to upgrade & recruit top_notch_scouts.
b.} I will always be on the lookout to draft high_character_playmaker, 1st is on defense, and then 2nd is on offense.
c.} If the playmaker that we are after is gone before our turn to grab him, then I will trade_down a few spot, and draft the player who is the most coveted by most teams, usually they are QB & RB.
d.} I will tend to stockpile as many draft_picks as I can, if I anticipate an upcoming bumper_draft.
------------------------------------------------------------
e.} I will tend to trade_away my 1st & 2nd_rounds draft_picks, if I anticipate an upcoming lean_draft.
f.} I will tend to swap cash for draft_picks, since Redskins cash_flow is strong.
g.} I will try to develop low_round or free_agent QB & RB, and trade them away for 1st_round draft_picks.
h.} I will never draft a kicker or a punter in the first 4 rounds.
------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------
2.} Case_study_2004_draft:
When it is our turn to pick @ #5, then ... ...
2.a.} If Sean Taylor is available, then I will grab him.
2.b.} If Sean Taylor is gone, then I will grab Ben Roethlisberger. ....I will trade Ben Roethlisberger to QB needy teams, and get as many 2004_draft_picks as I can. -- or --
2.c.} If Sean Taylor is gone, then I will trade our 5th_pick & cash to get him back. .... I will never trade up before knowing which team ahead of us that grab Sean Taylor.
------------------------------------------------------------
On ChampBailey / ClintonPortis trade:
I will negotiate hard by expanding the variables and swap our 2004_2nd_round draft_pick with Denver_2005_2nd_round draft_pick or Denver_2006_1st_rounder. ... I will not simply give them away just like that.
Please feel free to criticize my method and suggest the improvement.
What are your drafting principles?
