Happy, but why did Phillip Thomas drop from where he was expected though?

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

Philip Thomas is fragile. Who else was available?

[quote=warriorzpath;1006315]Happy, but why did Phillip Thomas drop from where he was expected though?[/quote]

He was expected to go anywhere from the 3rd to the 4th

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

OMG. What if Poyer and Rambo were still available in the 5th?

Biggest weakness I've read is somewhat inconsistent when wrapping up on tackles and a nasty leg injury in 2011.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

i like it

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

I would have been happy with Thomas in the 2nd.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

What do you know? The Redskins are aware of their individual team needs. I like this pick.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

[quote=Mattyk;1006313]Love that we added two pure ballhawks in the secondary![/quote]

Bring on the game changing Ints, Baby!

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

Seriously though, in the 5th we should take the BPA in the following positions (CB, S, OT, WR) at both spots.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

if we can merge amerson's 13 picks in 2011 w thomas' 8 picks in 2012; that'd be awesome

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

If he played every game this past year and checked out medically during final evaluations, it's a great pick.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

It's official! Phillip Thomas is coming to D.C.!

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

It feels like this draft is moving extremely slow.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

[quote=Mattyk;1006313]Love that we added two pure ballhawks in the secondary![/quote]

And I love how they can both play near the line of scrimmage as effective blitzes like Haslett loves from his secondary guys.

[QUOTE=mooby;1006323]What do you know? The Redskins are aware of their individual team needs. I like this pick.[/QUOTE]

and, apparently, where guys will go. it seems like we always have a couple solid choices and rarely draft overly high.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

I like the heights of both secondary picks... Big and athletic.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

Damn was hoping Harper could last another round or two

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

So Philip Thomas led the nation in interceptions last year and....

Amerson led the nation in interceptions the year before.

Hmmm.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

Minnifield gonna be in the mix also, kinda like another draft pick.

We have 2 starters now already in the secondary from this draft. Can't be mad at that

And a matchup nightmare at TE with Jordan Reed.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

John Franklin to GB is going to confuse some fantasy football drafts

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

We're having a great draft so far. I have wanted the Skins to pick Phillip Thomas for months. There are still a lot of good players left who might be able to help us very early in their careers, if we get them. I'm lovin' it!

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

Plus Richard Crawford and Jordan Bernstine. There will be competition, and may the best men win.

I think they will continue to go BPA, and keep adding youth to challenge for jobs and add depth.

I hope we see LB, WR, DL, and OL in the next 4 spots, in no particular order.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

2 picks next round. Let's add some blue collar, luch pail toting depth.

Add scat RB to that as well.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

[quote=artmonkforhallofamein07;1006343]Add scat RB to that as well.[/quote]

Yup there's a bunch out there. And Senior Executive AJ Smith has a history of drafting good ones in the later rounds.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

Da'Rick in round 5?

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

Lattimore would make my day.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

[quote=artmonkforhallofamein07;1006346]Lattimore would make my day.[/quote]

OK, I like this idea too.

Guess what? We no longer have to pretend these guys are actually any good.

What we've been doing since Shanny day 1.

Wouldn't be BPA. We'll get another nice name soon.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

Ugh, I hate the 9ers. They have so many picks left, they are going to end up cutting a bunch of picks.

A defense that can get the ball back to RG3 will be a good one. It's all about getting turnovers. Love what the FO is doing.

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

[B]Phillip Thomas[/B]

[SIZE="4"][I]Based on his play as a junior, it looked as though Thomas was going to assert himself as one of the top safeties in the 2012 draft class. But a gruesome leg injury (broken left leg, dislocated ankle) suffered in a non-contact drill just three days before the 2011 season opener dashes those hopes.[/I][/SIZE]

[QUOTE=artmonkforhallofamein07;1006346]Lattimore would make my day.[/QUOTE]

I wouldn't mind that

Re: Draft talk rounds 4-7
 

Nice pick. Id say let him play behind Tanard Jax for a year then start'm FS year two if he shows.

Very true. And there goes Lattimore.

Oh well
