if Teddy is not drafted number one, i'd be willing to trade the number 7 pick next years 1st and 3rd. But only IF Lovie and Tedford believe Bridgewater is going to be a franchise guy.
Draft picks are always overvalued by fans. If you feel like player A is worth the picks, go for it. Especially if player A is going to be the face of the franchise and dictate the W/L every Sunday. You gotta take risks at some point. Your not just going to get a QB by just one falling into your lap, it doesn't work like that and you buffoons wonder why we haven't had a QB stability since Doug Williams. Its only a problem when you trade away future picks, consistently. This team has plenty of young talent at key positions so I'm with the idea of trading up for a QB, mainly Bridgewater.
tell washington that. they got fleeced and then compounded the error by giving the Rams the #2 overall pickthat situation alone is why im absolutely not in favor of making trades like this.

even though they did give up way too much, they are poised for a quicker revovery because they have a tremendoulsy talented QB. for the right QB I'd be willing to move up 5 spots (Bridgewater) at the end of the day its a QB driven league and its very hard to find one outside of a high first round pick.
You are guaranteed to land Teddy or Manzeil at #2. How much would you give up to get one of them?Anything more than this years #1, next years #1 and a late rounder is too rich for my blood.
Trade Value Chart 
maybe your 1st and 2nd round picks this year + possible 2nd or 3rd round pick in 2015
that chart is old and never had any validity. plus the rookie salary cap has changed things. but going by it the difference between #7 and #2 is 1100 points or the equivalent of a mid first rounder. so this years first and next years.

How old? Because 2012 to move from 6 to 2 it cost 3 1st round picks & a 2nd.....this years first and next years won't cut it to move from 7 to 2....

The chart is good for 2014...It hardly ever changes...The rookie salary doesn't figure into the equation...you are drafting talent not salary....the value of the talent remains the same...If you want the talent, a smart GM holding that draft position will make you pay for it...

I see no reason for St. Louis to take anything less than what they received from Washington.
The problem with this theory (and everyone else saying it'll take a lot)Washington has this guy, he's the owner, named Dan Snyder. He does a lot of stupid things. Like paying more than he should for football stuff.Also, the Bucs traded from 5 down to 7. What did they get for 2 spots? A 4th round pick. The OP asked what would be fair for moving up 5 spots (by my calculations, that is 3 more spots than 2) What would be fair to do that? The 4th round pick and a future 3rd.

That is insane.According to that chart, 1 overall is better than having 7 AND 8 overall
Washington paid a big price, but if RG3 had matched his rookie year, it would be a non-issue. Had they made the same deal for Andrew Luck, no one would be criticizing the price.I'm not sure what price I'd pay for Bridgewater. I think he's the best QB in the draft. I wouldn't take Manziel with the 7th pick, so I wouldn't give up anything to move up to get him.

Who would they pick with that #2 pick anyway? They have a good offensive line, a running back, and most importantly a good QB. I guess they could go with Watkins but good WR's can be found just about anywhere early though. They don't need Matthews or even Clowney b/c they have Orakpo and Kerrigan. Redskins aren't really missing much anyway. The reason why they are picking so high is because their coaches are awful not b/c of the talent.
nothing wrong with a calculated risk, that's how wall street works ( or used to ). however , the move your talking about would cost us too much. now , if you can look into your crystal ball and assure all of us that qb WILL BE that franchise qb we all want I'm all for it. also , I hear a lot of talk about staying there and taking manziel or whatever qb is still there. this doesn't make sense either. why take the 3rd or 4th best qb at #7 when we can get the #1 or #2 DE,OL,WR or LB. just sayin'.
