ASHBURN, Va. -- Washington Redskins owner Dan Snyder said his team will not trade its 2010 first-round pick in an attempt to move up Saturday in the NFL draft.
"We're not going to be trading next year's 1," Snyder told radio station ESPN980 in an interview Friday. "We've already said that several times."
The Redskins have the No. 13 choice in the first round this year, and there has been speculation that the team might want to try to move up in order to select USC quarterback Mark Sanchez.
"We're really not as a franchise comfortable trading first-round draft picks," Snyder said. "I don't think it's a wise move to keep trading that pick. It's always a little bit risky."
Snyder noted that the only time his team recently did swap the following year's No. 1 pick, it was to acquire quarterback Jason Campbell in 2005 -- "and it worked out quite well," Snyder said.
Campbell's name recently has been mentioned in trade rumors, and a source who's familiar with the situation told NFL.com's Steve Wyche that the quarterback would request a trade if the Redskins use their first-round pick on another signal-caller.
