TRADE TALKS: Redskins could be making some moves
Winston-Salem Journal (subscription), NC - 4 hours ago
With less than one week remaining before the start of the NFL draft, the Washington Redskins continue to assess varied options related to their first-round pick, the sixth overall. Team management has spent the offseason in repeated trade talks, involving both players and the pick, and will be in contact with several clubs through next weekend’s draft.

Myriad scenarios could unfold this week and on draft day, with the unpredictable Oakland Raiders and Detroit Lions holding the top two picks, making it difficult for the teams behind them to assess how the opening round will unfold. Some NFL executives expect the Redskins to go down to the last minute next Saturday before making a trade or selecting a player, as their odds of completing a swap would be boosted if some of the top available talent slips beyond the top five selections. Washington has been exploring ways to move up in the first round as well, with wide receiver Calvin Johnson coveted by many in the organization, including owner Daniel Snyder.

Looks like Washington could well trade down unless Johnson somehow falls into their laps.
