Pre Draft Thread 2.0

Yep, I'd be fine with taking a flier on either Mond, Mills, Trask, or Newman. Sit tight at 19 or trade back for more picks.

One of my favorite Washington draft moves was when we traded back into the 1st Round to get Montez Sweat. I think we're going to be able to get a quality starter at #19 and then, if we move up to get another first round talent, we may be able to get a second quality starter.

The name to watch for the Skins now is LB Jamin Davis

As a Louisville Cardinal football season ticket holder, this hurts a bit.



Given my collegiate allegiance, I have two rules ...

#1 (and waaaaaay more important than 2) Please Lord, keep my Cards from falling in the clutches of Jerry and the Dallas Cowaboyz.

#2 Please Lord, let us avoid drafting Kensucky players.

Terrace Marshall is my new favorite WR. He's fast (4.38) and bigger than Waddle, Smith, and Toney. (6'3"/201). Could be a steal.

Don't see them picking a WR in the 1st though.

3 more weeks until we complete our Super Bowl roster!! I'm fermenting my Kool-Aid now so it's Jungle Juice by the time week 1 rolls around.

Interesting speculation

Speaking on his podcast The GM Shuffle, NFL analyst Michael Lombardi said on Wednesday that he believes Washington "loves" North Dakota State quarterback Trey Lance and could see Ron Rivera making a major trade for the 21-year-old QB.

"I think Washington is going to be the next team to unload all their picks to try to get a QB," Lombardi said. "I think they love Lance. I don't think, I know Washington loves Lance. So, will they trade up to get Lance? That remains to be seen."

Trading up to number 4 is too risky unless you love all 4 of the top guys. I still think the 9ers take Lance.

We'd have to wait until after SF picks.

If they take Lance, we're at 4 with a choice between Fields and Jones, neither are worth a #4 pick.

Very interesting...he would fit what Ron/Hurney/Scott love.

But do we have the stomach for another rg3 like move up?

I trust Ron but would cringe

Wow if that happens.

I kinda like sitting at 19 and waiting for a WR, T or LB to drop to us ... but Riverboat Ron said there are no rebuilds in this league anymore, hes here to win. Not sure how trading 2-3 1st rounders for a QB to sit a year helps win now but In Ron I Trust.

Albert Breer is speculating that it will not happen, unless it is a short move up, if a QB falls past the #10 pick

The first three picks in the draft belong to the Jaguars, Jets and 49ers -- in that order. All three teams are expected to take quarterbacks with those picks, with Clemson's Trevor Lawrence expected to go first and BYU's Zach Wilson to follow. Who San Francisco takes at third remains uncertain, but signs are pointing towards Alabama's Mac Jones.

With this being the case, the draft truly begins at the fourth pick, one that currently belongs to the Falcons. However, reports surfaced yesterday that Atlanta is willing to move back from the pick, should a QB-needy team like Washington want to trade up for that selection.

Lombardi doesn't think Washington will strike a deal with Atlanta right away. He believes the asking price is too high for what Washington is willing to pay.

"They're going to wait for the draft. And, if Trey Lance starts to slide, they're going to go get his ass," Lombardi said. "They're gonna go get his ass. 'We're going to react to what happens in front of us.' He's not lying. Ron [Rivera] is just being totally honest."

But, if Lance makes it past the fourth pick in the draft - by Atlanta or whatever team trades up into that spot - the analyst thinks Washington could make a move.

"I think they want Trey Lance. I think they're willing to go get him. I think they want to do it in a way to where they can minimize their cost," Lombardi said. "And so the only way you can do that is get on the clock and wait for that draft to start and wait for who goes four, who goes five, who's at six. Maybe I can get to six and they'll be willing to move down [to 19] and I'll give them next year's [first-round pick] and yada yada yah. And move on that way."

If Washington were to select Lance, he would not be put into action right away, especially after adding Fitzpatrick in free agency.

The real question is, who is the traitor in the organization leaking this stuff. Remember year Chiefs took Mahomes, traded up, NO ONE knew they were interested. Unless this is disinfo, meant to make another team trade up for QB and help ensure all five QBs gone so we get better player when we pick, you would NOT want stuff like this leaked, as you up the price.

Probably Ryan Fitzpatrick.
