Redskins Looking QB?
Fuzzy math in Washington?
If I'm reading this right, Danny Boy and the Redskins traded their third round pick this year AND their No. 1 and No. 4 from the 2006 draft in exchange for Denver's first-round pick this year, the 25th overall pick.
That just doesn't add up, does it? Washington's No. 1 pick alone next year is likely more valuable than Denver's this year (the Redskins are far from a healthy playoff bet this fall, and the depth of the 2005 first round isn't considered anything great). Granted, if there's an organization that's working on a different mathematical plane than everyone else, it's the Redskins.
I could see *maybe* doing this sort of deal when it's the day of the draft, the first round is nearly over and you know specifically who it is you're moving up for. But to make this sort of move now, I don't understand it - other than the fact that this franchise always does dumb stuff.
If there's a Washington apologist, let's hear your side. (Mike here apologizing that Washington needs a QB because Patrick Ramsey stinks.)
In an unrelated Capitol Sports Blurb, Frank Robinson is complaining that his Nationals don't get adequate play on ESPN. That's pretty funny. I always felt the less Cristian Guzman and Vinny Castilla the better, but it's not my baby.
