Blaine Gabbert trade: What the 'Skins got in return

As we saw from the Redskins, they had a goal of not only adding talent, but leaning towards quantity over quality. It started when they traded the #10 overall pick to the Jaguars in return for #16 and #49. Seems simple right? Well from there it got wild. Washington made a plethora of trades, unloading #49 to the Colts for a pair of picks, one of which was traded again for for two more, one of which was traded again, and so on. Ultimately, for the total price of the #10 pick and throwing in #144 in a trade to Houston, here are the players that the Redskins picked up in return:

#16 - Ryan Kerrigan, Purdue OLB
#79 - Leonard Hankerson, Miami (Fl) WR
#105 - Roy Helu, Nebraska RB
#146 - Dejon Gomes, Nebraska S
#178 - Aldrick Robinson, SMU WR
#217 - Maurice Hurt, Florida OG

Not a bad trade overall considering they picked up six pieces who could potentially make the team while only giving up two picks of their own in the process.
