If Daunte went to Oakland, you should be able to talk about how messed up the draft would then be.

the common belief is that if your arm is strong enough to throw it 80 yards, then it is strong enough to throw the 15 yard out harder than others, which is quite a valuable asset in the nfl.

again, obviously. but what can throwing 80 yards do for you that throwing 60 or 50 yards can't? get the ball to the 15 yard WR .01 seconds faster?

I'm saying that the perception of "hey, Al Davis likes the vertical game so {Insert Big armed QB here} HAS to be the pick" is wrong. Just like the perception of "hey, Al Davis likes fast guys, so {Insert fast guy here} HAS to be the pick" is wrong.
Nobody drafts first rounders just based on what the owner "likes".

Rumors are that the Bears are talking with the Redskins about sending Lance Briggs to Washington and the Skins swapping draft picks with the Bears. That would give the Bears the #6 pick of the draft. Now, if this is credible, and I am the GM of the Bears, I hurry up and make that trade before the Washington GM comes to his senses. Briggs is a good LB, but he plays in a Very Good Defense. I don't think he would be as productive in Washington. Then the Bears with the #6 pick of the draft, that would give them a ton of options.

Oh I agree with you and your usage of the "uppercase HAS". However, the perception that Raiders and Al Davis loves the vertical game is spot on as is the perception that Al Davis is a very meddlesome owner. In turn this leads to, since he is the owner and since he meddles and since he loves the vertical game, his desire for a strong armed QB is moreso than most hence the propensity for the Raiders to seriously look at, if not select, the big strong armed QB is probably closer to the usage of "lowercase has".

No touching!

But is it worth it to give up their first rounder and Briggs? I think they should get Washington's straight up for him...
I think that they also have to see who they have to step into that spot... They won't get an OLB that will help them right away at the #6 pick...

There's no way he is worth the #6 pick by himself. I would not even do a straight up for Urlacher. High draft picks like that come at a steep price. Personally, I think the Skins are nuts to make that trade at all. Briggs is a good LB, but he has several Pro Bowlers around him too. I think on an average Defense like Washington, he is productive, but not nearly as good.
