I would've liked this trade a lot more if Jenkins hadn't still been on the board.

Cerrato better be at least as good as advertised at finding talent in the later rounds or this will turn out to be another front office faux pas.

We have a lot of needs and this is one way to get those needs filled. Younger cheaper talent.

We got two second rounders from Hotlanta so we have 3 second rounders now.

There are arguments to be made both ways. Three potential starters is better than 12 poor draft selections. Twelve good draft selections is obviously far better than three. This is where Cerrato is supposed to earn his money, and a fairly large number of other GM's say he's among the best at finding late round talent. The Redskins need him to live up to that billing.

Jordy Nelson is a name to watch for as well as Sweed, Merling, Calais Campbell, and any of the remaining top CB's.

I'm pleased with the move, since one of the 2nds we got was 34...really not a huge move down from 21.

Has anyone looked at the points chart breakdown of this trade? Doesn't seem like we got full value in this trade

I agree. We can get a steal or two from guys who will slip out of the first. We will have a solid, even draft all around with these picks.

Eh, this is a fair trade, but I'm not excited about giving up a third....even though we get a fourth back. Still, I like it much better than chosing at 21 so, Yah! Skins!

We still have our compensatory pick because that can't be traded.

After seeing how badly the Eagles ripped off the Panthers, I was hoping that the Skins could've pulled something similar over on the Falcons.

This seems like a fair trade to me. Nothing to get too excited about. We need to hit on these 2nd round picks.

They only added 1 more pick, but they only had 1 pick in the top 50 - now they have two. They now have 5 in the top 100 and a 4th round pick
