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

[StillUnknown]

is it written into all our coaches contracts that you must devalue the draft?

[sjinhan]

Why do people assume this guy is going to be an effective starter?

2008 15 games (9 starts), 22 tackles, 0 sacks, 0 passes defensed, 0 forced fumbles

2007 16 games (16 starts), 30 tackles, 2 sacks, 1 pass defensed, 0 forced fumbles

but if we get a 5th rounder to perform at that level then we definitely going bonkers about what a diamond in the rough we have found...

lets put that 5th rounder in perspective, especially when the guy we got is only 25 years old.

Carriker is best suited for a 3-4 DE more so then a 4-3 DT. He has been playing out of position.

[Soup's Uncle]

From Shefter, we swapped 5ths and picked up Carriker...Not bad

[SonnyRules]

5th for a starter sounds fine for me.

Hes only 25 too

...and didn't play one down in 2009 with a shoulder injury; and only started 8 games in 2008 with the same injury.

Not happy we gave up a fifth for someone who could end up on injured reserve.

jason freaking taylor is where are 6th rounder went I believe

and he jsut signed with JETS

dolphins now traded a guy away and then resigned him, and let him walk to jets and STILL have picks from the first time he left...

VINNY YOU STINK

To acquire Adam Carricker, Washington swapped spots with St. Louis in the 5th round for the pick the Rams had from the Eagles.

Jeez, that is the epitome of a team trading a guy for the proverbial "ham sammich"

[heliKCx17]

we swapped 5th rounders. what a fantastic trade. we move back ~20 spots in the 5th for the guy. AMAZING TRADE! our FO IS SICK!

[KDawg]

Interesting. I have nothing else to say.

He was basically free.

[Chump Bailey]

I just heard that also! Please no draft picks.

Why? Adam's been hurt and playing out of position from the start. If he's healthy, he can make for a great DE. He was a top ten pick.

Holy crap, that's almost free.

[SMOSS89]

Whew! We SWAPPED picks!

[Polo3]

man people are complaining about draft picks....man who siad these draft picks will even be on the team if we pick them....yeah its their duty to pick the right players and thats why they have scouts, fine, good argument but if you feel ike you can get someone who used to be a FIRST ROUND PICK, meaning he has talent and hasnt excelled YET, this is good in my opinion....

3 draft picks....so what....doesnt mean you cant trade back and get more, if not, then just get who you can....and get undrafted free agents and trade the players like rocky/campbell and get something in return....

on top of that, they have a plan, SHANNY HAS A PLAN FOLKS!....GOTTA LOVE IT!

Best post of the day!!!!!

[Est.1974]

I heard we moved back in the fifth and up in seventh and got carriker, which would mean we didnt lose any picks

Th Rams do have an extra 5th rounder, the 32nd pick in that round. That is possible.

[mnb123]

So we moved down 28 spots in the 5th round to get a starter....

I'm down with that

[Mr. Sinister]

White injury prone end?!?! Oh yeah!!!!

We better be keeping Haynesworth now.

What the **** does his skin color have to do with how well he plays. Keep those kinds of ignorant thoughts to yourself.

allen is the man baby!!!

So we go from pick 135 to pick 163 and pick up Carriker. Not a bad job.

[clskinsfan]

WOW. We stole him. cost us absolutely nothing to get him. I love this move!

I'm ok with that.

[BigMike21]

We still have a fifth round pick, just a lower one. I guess I can sign on with this move then.

[Rodriggo]

That's not bad at all.

But what do the Rams get in the deal except unloading Carriker?
