Schefter: Adam Carriker traded to the Redskins (Skins swap 5th and 7th round picks with STL)

[BigMike21]

We also swapped 7th round picks I am reading, so we move up a couple spots there.

[#1njskinsfan]

So maybe we'll ship him back to Tennessee

foreshadowing?

[TheLongshot]

i think he added some weight to become a better run stopping DE.

i really liked him with his limited time on the field but he got hurt IIRC.

It is hard to say what the team's plan is for Jarmon, since he's still rehabbing from last year.

[Mr. Sinister]

oh and one guy referred to a healthy AC as a "penetration machine"

not that that's important for this trade, but it is absolutely hilarious.

Penetration machine huh? I bet he'll be a hit with the ladies in the DMV area

No, he is cutting down to the 260 range from his 277 playing weight. Crossing my fingers b/c I thought he was a good player too up to his injury.

RT @RickMaese: Carriker trade update: also swap 7th round picks. #Redskins move up in 7th round from 211 overall to Rams' spot at 208.

Wow, I wonder if we were holding out a bit to move up 3 spots in the 7th round. Allen will get his value. LOL!

[J-bomb]

One of our DE's should be worried 2 days after we wrap up mini camp and Shanny is quoted at saying "We saw some players that didn't impress us" we trade for a DE. In with one AC out with the other AC possibly! Man the draft is going to be something exciting this year I can't wait til Thursday!

[Zhouse]

i checked out the rams board and some of their trade scenarios from us for AC:

rocky

carter

davis

fletcher

Vinny would've done it

Nice trade, I like it.

Funny that allen swapped 7th round picks as well, the guy likes to haggle.

Maybe Andre could fetch us a late second or early to mid third...

Three spots don't mean that much in the seventh but I'd say we worked the Rams over on this trade.

[Hitman21ST]

One hour old and we're at 21 pages...this could contend with the Cult of Colt thread...

[laurent]

Picked up veteran depth for a swap of 5th round picks, I like it.

[DarrellsMyHero28]

I like it.

As long as that's all we gave up, Carriker was a great player coming out of college and as long as he's healthy its a great pick up.

I like that we're going from very little DL depth to quite a bit of depth. Think of the Giants in the past few years, where they could just plug in another guy and get pressure. We don't have the amount of talent they did just yet but we could be building toward that.

[Gutierrez19]

I read a great point on another post. A gap on the Dline in St. Louis leaves room for Suh at #1 and a potential slide to the #4 spot for Bradford. Could Shanny and Allen be setting up a big trade down instead of just taking Bradford at #4?

[Skins-Canes-Mounties]

Looks like the Rams are trying to forget this day in July of 2007:

"St. Louis Rams: Finishing off an impressive daily double at the bargaining table, which included a record deal for quarterback Marc Bulger, the St. Louis Rams on Friday signed first-round draft choice Adam Carriker, a defensive tackle from Nebraska, to his first NFL contract.

The 13th player chosen overall, Carriker signed a five-year contract worth $14.5 million, with guarantees of $9.5 million." Posted by Len Pasquarelli 7/28/07

Thats what she said :pfft:

Anyway, I hope this dude shoulder can hold up. At least he's familiar with the D coach.

[JC#17]

I'll eat crow if it doesnt happen, but I've been pretty on point so far

[tiger187126]

poor guy. they tell you that you have to bulk up one year and then the next year they tell you you gotta cut it back and drop 20.

he's a guy that can be successful rushing the passer.

[Mad Mike]

Swapping 5th rounders for a potential 1st round talent sounds good to me.

I would say that this move may SLIGHTLY increase the chance the Rams take Suh and if that happens, Bradford may fall to us on the expectation that we wont draft him because we have McNabb. Please, let it be so.

I would snag him in a heartbeat, If we can extend McNabb's contract, great. We can trade him later. If we cant come to terms, fine. We still have Bradford if he wants to walk. And if Bradford doesn't progress as we hope, *HE* can be the trade bait. Either way we stockpile draft pics in the form of two very desirable QBs.

Yeah, we would still need O linemen but maybe this makes a Haynesworth trade a little more likely as well.

Our FO may have started slow this year but they are finishing with a bang.

[Veretax]

the scary thing about this trade is I made a comment today about a possible trade up involving carriker, and talking about swapping 5th rounders would be good. this is crazy... I can't believe we pulled this one off LOL... Bring on Okung!!!

Now if Rams take Suh, what do the Rams do? McCoy or Okung?

[visionary]

rams fans really enjoying 4-20 today?

Not just their fans.
