NFL Draft: Brady Quinn Subject of Redskins-Dolphins Trade?

We're just three days away from the NFL draft, and we still have no idea where Notre Dame quarterback Brady Quinn is going to go. Some people think the Raiders could take Quinn first overall. Others think Quinn will drop all the way out of the first half of the first round.

ESPN's Todd McShay said on a radio appearance this morning that Quinn will fall no further than sixth. That spot is currently owned by the Redskins, but according to McShay, if Quinn is still on the board at that point, the Dolphins and Redskins will swap first-round picks so the Dolphins can take Quinn.

I'm not convinced. The key is whether new Dolphins coach Cam Cameron wants to tie his future in Miami to Quinn, because if you use a Top 10 pick on a quarterback, you're basically announcing that this guy is going to be the key to your team's plans going forward. And although I'm not quite as down on Quinn as many analysts have been lately, I just don't see why Cameron would want to do that. I'm not saying the Dolphins won't take Quinn, but it doesn't seem like a good fit to me.
