Redskins trading out of the 4 spot?

-Feel like I've said this a million times, but drafting a QB in the first round does not equal disregarding the offensive line. The Skins aren't planning on waiting until draft day, taking a QB at 4, and then going home

-Sure Bradford's shoulder is a concern, but all indications are that he's fine and if teams never drafted guys because they had injuries...there'd be no draft to begin with

-There's more buzz though that we're not taking either Bradford or Clausen in the first round (who knows for sure though)

-I think Moss should have been traded last year (if not the year before). His value is slipping but we need to see what we can get out of him. We also need to move forward with DT and Kelly and whoever else as our starting receivers

-Unfortunately we made moves in the past (Duckett, Lloyd, Taylor) that have no hurt us as we try to move forward. We can either sit and moan about it or make do with we have. What we have is guys like Laron Landry playing for a last place team so it makes sense to see what a guy like Landry can bring back. That doesn't mean you just trade him, it means you explore the options

-There will most likely be a draft in 2011 so the conditional status of any pick that year shouldn't be a concern

-Mentioned it in another thread (and many times before) but I'm keeping an eye on Jevan Snead. Reading between the lines of what people are telling me he sounds like a prime mid-round candidate

1) If we trade JC to Buffalo, I'd almost bet my monthly paycheck that we will pick Bradford or Clausen at #4, not an OT, and likely also sign a vet who can start until the young buck is ready for prime time.

2) I'm not doubting you but I don't understand such Snead love. I saw a lot of him and was unimpressed. In the most charitable scenario, it seems like he would not be ready to start any time soon, but the guy I saw did not look like even starter material. My two cents in my role of "NOT a quarterback guru."
