While they might have bigger needs, it shouldn't be at the expense of drafting a lesser player (especially picking in the top ten). Jeff Fisher runs the piss out of the ball, and I just don't see Jackson holding up to the pounding and having someone like Richardson there will be invaluable in protecting the defense/Bradford. As an aside, I think Brockers is a bust waiting to happen.

If they're smart, they can parlay that #2 pick that they weren't going to use on RGIII anyways into the foundation of the next half decade. At the very least, this trade gives fans both of the Rams and Redskins something to be excited about.
