[quote=KI Skins Fan;1002371]Pugh is a very good player but he has T. Rex arms, only about 30", if I recall correctly. That bothers me about him at OT. Maybe they want him at OG.[/quote]

yeah it'd be at OG. For the record I'm not saying I want him. I don't. I also don't think we're going to pick at 51. Just answering the question is all

You think we will trade up or trade back?

Re: 2013 NFL Draft Prospects
 

[quote=JoeRedskin;1002376]I would be okay with a tackle in either the 2nd or 3rd.[/quote]

I would really prefer defensive backs with the first two picks.

Based on our track record I see us trading back. I think this will be one of our BEST drafts as well as next years. even without a 1st rd pick. IMO we've got alot of good scouting eyes looking for talent.

Back. And potentially out into 2014

And our first two picks won't be DBs.

Re: 2013 NFL Draft Prospects
 

So if we have a decent FS option there at 51 we won't draft them? Interesting stuff, what are our plans at FS then?

Sounds like we are trying to get back a 1st for 2014, this is suppose to be a real deep DB class.

I'm just giving my opinion here

That's the way I'm taking it, not chiselling in stone or anything like that.

[quote=JoeRedskin;1002375]Watching Pugh's highlights, it seemed to me he was playing very high with little knee bend. No talent scout but was not particularly impressed.[/quote]

Watch him in the senior bowl; he looked awful.

That seems like a terrible mistake... Arguably, any team should draft for talent and not position, but as our holes begin to close, it makes sense to try and draft for position.

I would hope that we go DB first, or if nothing else, OT... Either way, the secondary needs to be addressed in a big way early in the draft.

I'm sure it ventures into crystal ball territory but how far out can the scouts project the potential of a player? Would it be too much of a stretch to say that Skins scouts are already targeting 2014 players?

I'd love to see us gather picks for 2014 when we can afford to bolster the roster and bet set for 5-10 years.

Re: 2013 NFL Draft Prospects
 

I think the fans are probably way more concerned about the secondary than the front office is. And I don't think they are going into the draft thinking it's do or die to find a starter in the secondary. BPA is always the best approach. Drafting for need more often than not results in reaching.

Completely agree, and honestly almost every position on the Redskins could use improvement except QB, even the OLB's could use an added playmaker. There is no reason to only be concerned about the secondary when there might be better players available. Stick with the plan.

Seeing as how ESPN/NFL network guys already scout players from 2014, I am sure team scouts are doing that as well, they just aren't as in depth as they can be because they are not supposed to be able to contact the players or do as much research as they are able to do for players that have declared for the draft.
