Re: Desean Jackson with our first round draft pick!
 

we dont need another wide reciever especially a small one that is 6'0" 166lbs. He would be a great returner, but with the plethora of defensive lineman out there we better pick one up.

SS please lock this thread.

[QUOTE=Cowell;359419]Small receivers have a shot at making it in this league. DeSean Jackson has been doing good for pretty much his entire college career. He had 59 catches for over 1,000 yards in his sophomore year and 38 receptions for 600 his freshman year. If he shows even more improvement this year, he is a guaranteed top 10 pick.[/QUOTE]

Who said they don't? Problem is, we already have 2 of them...no more room for small wr's. Sad thing is, he'd be smaller than both our small wr's.
ps- no way will he be a top 10 pick. He disappears too much.
I'll say it again...PETER WARRICK!

I know it's kind of weird to be talking about it right now and to be bringing back up this thread, but I don't care what the Skins have to give up to move up and draft him, but Chris Long is a freaking beast. 9 tackles, 2 sacks (1 safety), 2 tackles for a loss, and a pass deflection and the games not over yet. He's been consistent all year and has shown he has the motor to keep playing hard play after play along with incredible pass rushing technique.

I'm sitting in my hotel room in DC right now, about to head to FedEx. My wife and I also went to the UMD/UVA game last night, and I gotta tell ya, I wouldn't mind seeing Chris Long in a Skins jersey.

Too funny....was getting ready to post the same thing. Long's been doing this all year. He looks like a man among children out there. I believe he'll be a top 10, so hopefully we won't have a pick there, but no doubt he's a high character, top player. I'd like to see him w/ the skins. He would fit it b/c he's not just a pass rusher too.

I've read that he's the hardest working player for UVA and he has an unbelievable motor on gameday, as witnessed at College Park last night. He reminds me of Jared Allen of KC, without the obvious baggage. I'd love to see him here as well, but he may be creeping toward top 5 after last night's effort.

Can we get through the season before we start talking draft picks?
