No way, because we would most likely get a slew of trade partners at that point.
It would also convolute our RB depth chart.
We need defense defense defense.....

Despite the valuable BPA education you've received free of charge from 30gut, you and others continue to talk about drafting or not drafting certain positions in Round 1 based on need. Shame on you!

Also, "convolute our RB depth chart"? We have no RB depth chart. You mean to tell me that we couldn't use a do-it-all stud at RB? I fear that one of our division rivals will pick him and he'll be kicking our ass for 8-10 years.

And, yes, we do need defense, defense, defense - with as many as 8 of our eventual 12 picks.

But I do (sort of) agree with BPA in Round 1. You just can't let a potential game-changer slip by you because of the position he plays.

I definitely agree we need defense, but he's just such a complete back, I would have a hard time passing on him unless someone offers us a metric shit ton to trade up for him.

People forget that if Scherff was gone or if we traded down last year Todd Gurley would be our RB right now, so if Elliot is staring us in the face at 21 and no one is giving the far for him, I expect him to be a Redskin

Shameless self-promotion. It is what it is.
