Loved our 4th round. Not really familiar with the remaining guys picked afterwards. It seems that most of them will at least help on special teams. I really hope the ILB becomes a starter with Robinson.

Agree, that duke program is starting to come together and put out some players...I really think a small, quick shifty player on offense is something Jay could really use. Roberts was a disappointment last year, why not bring in someone to challenge for his spot

Hmmm...had a gruesome ankle injury.

Re: Four Five Six Seven
 

Well we're not going to know anything about these players until they put the pads on and get on the field. Every year we think our draft is great. But what I like about this draft is there was a plan to draft a certain type of player. We at least finally have a blueprint. Now it's wait and see time...

I would be so boosted if we were able to land him. Our O line would immediately be a significantly better unit with he and Scherff.

[quote=Alvin Walton;1112707]Hmmm...had a gruesome ankle injury.[/quote]

Yea but he was doing awesome before it happen. He called 90% of the plays in his offense from the line of scimmage before the snap. Not to many QBs do that.

Smart Kid, and good arm. I see him turning heads.

Not all of us are blind optimists. I don't care if Scot is the best GM in the league, if he makes a move I don't like I'm gonna criticize it. None of this lame ass "wait and see" stuff for me.

Re: Four Five Six Seven
 

We havent played a down yet.
(with SMC as our GM)
Hes an unproven n00b as far as I'm concerned.

Re: Four Five Six Seven
 

Here's a quote by Urban Meyer about Evan Spencer that I found on cleveland.com:

"Evan Spencer," Meyer said, "hard for me to say he's not one of our MVPs the way he's playing for us. I know statistically sometimes it might not show up because we spread the ball so well right now, but he starts on kickoff now. He was one of our main guys on punt against Maryland when we had the tackle, that punt return, I just trust him with everything.

"It's to the point we're trying to find ways to reward him. That was the one time we threw to him three times, that was all me trying to reward a person that is selfless. Just love who he is right now."

Re: Four Five Six Seven
 

I hope Jarrell makes the team, I love his attitude and heart.

Brother’s keeper: It’ll be easy for fans to root for Jarrett, knowing the role he plays in his brother’s life. His 21-year-old brother, Daishawn, has cerebral palsy and is confined to a wheelchair. He’s also legally blind and requires constant care. When he was in high school, Kyshoen Jarrett used to bathe and feed him. But if he makes the Redskins, Jarrett will be able to help ease the burden on his mother, who must work and then take care of her son

Dude im just bustin his chops. Lighten up. Lol
Edit: criticize all you want we have been lousy for the better part of a quarter of a century. Its understood. Actually it wasnt really busting chops he was definitely the outspoken unhappy one and it seemed like an appropriate response to NC's meme.
That being said every draft that has ever or will ever take place is "wait and see". There is no such thing as a sure thing. Whether you were happy or not with the picks you have no choice but to "wait and see"....

Nice!! I hope Spaight and Jarrell make the team. That Jarrell kid is my hero, did you read about his brother? Not only did we get some tough players, they also have solid backgrounds.

Re: Four Five Six Seven
 

I wonder if Spaight is this guy:

[quote]This morning, [McCloughan] is consumed with an FBS middle linebacker projected by many to be a sixth- or seventh-rounder. But on a play in which the linebacker sprints to the sideline to make a tackle on a bubble screen, McCloughan sees something others might miss. The linebacker smelled a screen before anyone else and was just fast enough to get to the receiver. "You can't teach that," McCloughan says. He leans forward, quietly rewinding split seconds of the clip again and again.[/quote]

Re: Four Five Six Seven
 

Pretty damn happy that this McCloughan guy landed in Washington. Never know what tomorrow holds and I dont want to get too excited until it translates onto the field, but I think we might be on to something finally.

Re: Four Five Six Seven
 

Wow , both Kiper and Mcshay believe that the Skins had the best draft in the NFC East . Lets just hope these young men were the B & G with pride and passion !

[url=http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2015/03/arie_kouandjio_downplays_knee.html]Alabama NFL draft prospect Arie Kouandjio downplays knee issues | AL.com[/url]

And from Walter football:

image: [url]http://walterfootball.com/college/Alabama_logo.gif[/url]

Arie Kouandjio, G, Alabama
Height: 6-5. Weight: 310.
40 Time: 5.52.
Projected Round (2015): 2-3.
4/27/15: Kouandjio excelled as a run-blocker in 2014, and Alabama had a lot of success running behind him. His pass blocking was improved over 2013, but he still has room to get better in that area of his game for the next level. Kouandjio has the physical skill set to be a quality starter and play quickly in the NFL. He has quickness, athleticism and strength.

8/27/14: Kouandjio had some mixed outings in 2013, including the season opener against Virginia Tech. He got better on a weekly basis. Kouandjio had a good game against LSU, but didn't fare as well against Auburn or Oklahoma. The junior was burned for a lot of pass pressures and some sacks against the Sooners in the Sugar Bowl. He has to improve his pass protection and ability to handle speed rushers.

Kouandjio needs to improve as a senior in 2014, but he has the athletic skill set to be better. Koundjio has dealt with multiple knee surgeries but finally was healthy in 2013. Koundjio should stay at guard going forward rather than moving to tackle.

Reminds me of Reed Doughty. If we have to rely on Kyshoen Jarrett as a starter then we're probably in bad shape, as was the case when Doughty was forced into duty. But try as they might the coaches couldn't find someone to unseat Doughty on the roster. High character, high effort, strong contributor on special teams. You need those guys.

I don't like his chances at going the Kam Chancellor route but you just never know in the NFL. And if we've got a Reed Doughty on our hands then it was a successful 6th round pick.

That's exactly what I thought, Reed Doughty.

Re: Four Five Six Seven
 

I think Jarrett is faster than Reed , He returned punts at VT . I think he had a 94 yd return for TD . I know he isn't a 4.4 guy , but hopefully he can compete and push the other young guys.

Re: Four Five Six Seven
 

Reed isnt even close to the hitter Jarrett is and Jarrett also got his hands on more balls in passes defensed and ints stats. That could be just scheme at Tech.

If you look at Combine drills, Jarrett lead the DB in Bench press reps and 3 cone drill.

He is faster in space and stronger than Reed. The thing killing Jarrett is his size...5-10

Re: Four Five Six Seven
 

I wouldn't be surprised if Spaight unseats Riley, the more I read about him the more I like him.

Re: Four Five Six Seven
 

[B]And that story meshes with one Bielema heard from Spaight's coaches at Coffeyville Community College. An ankle injury prevented him from playing one week, but the coaches didn't trust him to not dress and be tempted to enter the game. So they took his gear out of his locker, forcing him to watch in street clothes. Later that night, as coaches reviewed film, they heard a noise on the practice field. It was Spaight, in full uniform, going through a three-hour workout.[/B]
I love this draft.......

He ran 4.57 at the Combine.

Re: Four Five Six Seven
 

[quote=KI Skins Fan;1112996]He ran 4.57 at the Combine.[/quote]
Yup, and followed it up with a 4.49 at his pro-day.

Kysheon fits a Reed Doughty role in that he's a back-up S and a core special teams player...but as far as physique and playing style? Completely different.
