I believe that the best thing we could do for our team in this draft would be to improve our talent up the middle. By that I mean at NT/DT, ILB, and safety. In FA we signed some help in each of those areas but we need more.
That brings me to the players you mentioned. I think Haason Reddick might well be the BPA at #17 and that meshes with what I think is our primary need on defense, so I'd pick him. In fact, I would pick him over Reuben Foster.
It's never a bad thing to pick a top-notch CB, so I'd have no problem with that.
As for the edge rushers, I think #17 would probably be high for Tak McKinley because he is raw and needs some time to work on his technique with NFL coaches. He is a fast, powerful athlete with a good motor, so he could be very good in time.
I would not draft Barnett at all. He's too slow for me and I don't think he'll be able to beat NFL OT's.

KI...you're hired. Pack your gear & get to Redskin Park A.S.A.P.
Just get me a C or Guard somewhere in the top 5 picks and you're golden!
Seriously, though, our biggest weakness is in the middle of the D. If we can focus on improving that, I think we're back in the playoffs and fighting for the division again.
